STK1000/IrDA transceiver

From AVRFreaks Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

The infrared data association (IrDA) define infrared communications protocols. Mobile telephones and PDA's use IrDA to transfer data and to communicate.

The IrDA module on STK1000 is designed in to allow you to create such applications on your development system before you create your own applications using IrDA communication.

The IrDA module is located on the corner of the printed circuit board between the Audio connector and the RS232 connectors.

Signal description

The TM3201 115.2 Kbit/s Infrared Transceiver that meets the IrDA 1.3 physical layer specification.

The IrDA module is connected to the UART_B interface from the daughter board. No jumper settings are required to use this peripheral.

Schematics

The TM3201 datasheet state that: "A logic high on TXD turn on the IrED" and "The output of TXD is low when a light pulse is seen."


Interfaces

Refer the help files of the daughter board to find out what interfaces are used and which peripheral on the processor are connected to the interface.
