TSOP1738 IR Receiver – Infrared Receiver at Best Price

The TSOP1738 IR Receiver is an infrared (IR) receiver module widely used in remote control systems.

Use this IR Receiver Diode – TSOP1738, a simple IR receiver for infrared remote control of your next project. With low power consumption and an easy-to-use package, it mates well with embedded electronics and can be used with common IR remotes.

The TSOP1738 is a miniaturized receiver for infrared remote control systems. A PIN diode and a preamplifier are assembled on a lead frame while the epoxy package acts as an IR filter. The demodulated output signal can be directly decoded by a microprocessor. The TSOP1738 is compatible with all common IR remote control data formats.

It is designed to receive infrared signals transmitted at a frequency of 38 kHz, which is commonly employed in consumer electronics remote controls. The module consists of a photo detector, pre-amplifier, AGC (Automatic Gain Control) circuit, and a demodulator. Its sensitivity and immunity to ambient light make it suitable for various applications requiring remote control functionality.

The TSOP1738 operates on a supply voltage typically ranging from 2.5V to 5.5V and provides a digital output signal that corresponds to the detected IR signal. With its compact size and straightforward interface, the TSOP1738 is a popular choice for integrating IR remote control capabilities into electronic projects and devices.
