Vishay Intertechnology Upgrades TSOP18xx, TSOP58xx, and TSSP5xx Series IR Receiver Modules With New In-House IC
January 18 2024 - 7:37PM
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today announced that it
has upgraded its TSOP18xx, TSOP58xx, and TSSP5xx series of infrared
(IR) receiver modules for remote control, proximity sensing, and
light barrier applications. Offered in Minicast packages, the
enhanced solutions provide drop-in, plug and play replacements for
existing devices in the series while offering 50 % lower current
consumption, improved ESD robustness to 12 kV, a wider supply
voltage range from 2.0 V to 5.5 V, 20 % higher dark-ambient
sensitivity, and improved performance under strong DC light.
Devices in the Vishay Semiconductors TSOP18xx, TSOP58xx, and
TSSP5xx series each consist of a photodetector, preamplifier
circuit, and IR filter in a single package. With their reduced
current consumption over a wider voltage range, the receiver
modules increase battery life in mobile devices, while their
robustness under bright sunlight enables outdoor applications. By
upgrading the IR receivers with Vishay’s latest in-house IC
technology, the company is ensuring the long-term availability of
the products — with reduced lead times — for its customers. And as
drop-in replacements for existing devices, the modules help save
costs by eliminating the need for PCB redesigns.
The TSOP18xx and TSOP58xx series are designed for IR remote
control in televisions, soundbars, video game systems, set-top
boxes (STBs), appliances, air conditioners, and more. For the
remote control function in these products, the devices provide
increased robustness against disturbances such as IR emissions from
different kinds of lamps. In addition, the modules are insensitive
to supply voltage variations and ripple noise. The devices are
available with carrier frequencies from 30 kHz to 56 kHz and in six
automatic gain control (AGC) versions for short and long burst
codes.
TSSP5xx series fixed-gain IR receiver modules deliver long range
proximity and presence sensing to 2 m and can be paired with the
TSAL6200 emitter for light barrier applications to 8 m (TSSP580xx).
Sensitive to a carrier frequency of 38 kHz — and offering a peak
sensitivity of 940 nm — the devices are ideal for sensing the
distance to objects for toys, drones, and robots; object approach
detection for the activation of displays and user consoles; and
garage door light barriers. They may also be used as reflective
sensors for hand dryers, towel or soap dispensers, water faucets,
toilets, vending machine fall detection, and security and pet
gates.
Samples and production quantities of the upgraded IR receiver
modules are available now, with lead times of four weeks.
