Product Overview
The XINGLIGHT XL-IRM1838D is an infrared remote control receiver classified in the LED category and described as a sensor. Its internal optical element combines a high-speed, high-sensitivity PIN photodiode with a low-power high-gain preamplifier IC, producing a TTL and CMOS compatible active-low output for remote-control signal reception.
The receiver is specified for a recommended supply voltage range of 2.7 to 5.5 V and a recommended input frequency of 37.9 kHz. At VDD=5 V and Ta=25°C, working current is 0.3 mA minimum, 0.4 mA typical, and 0.5 mA maximum. Receive distance is specified as 10 m minimum and 15 m typical at 0 degrees, with 5 m minimum and 6 m typical at left or right 35 degrees.
The package is an epoxy resin plastic encapsulated semi-circular spherical nose-bridge form with a 7.3 x 6.9 x 3.7 mm body and 25 mm pin length. Assembly-related limits include 240°C for up to 6 s wave soldering, 300°C for 3 s manual welding, and lead bending at least 2 mm from the body.
