Agilent HSDL-3603
IrDA
®
Data Compliant
4 Mbit/s Infrared Transceiver
Data Sheet
Features
• Fully compliant to IrDA 1.4 Fast
Infrared (FIR) from 9.6 kbit/s to
4 Mbit/s
• Typical link distance > 1.5 m
Description
The HSDL-3603 is a low profile
infrared transceiver module that
provides interface between logic
and IR signals for through-air,
serial, half-duplex IR data-link. The
module is fully compliant to IrDA
Date Physical Layer Specifications
v1.4 Fct Infrared (FIR) and IEC825-
Class I Eye Safe.
The HSDL-3603 can be shut down
completely to achieve very low
power consumption. In the
shutdown mode, the PIN diode will
be inactive and thus producing very
little photocurrent even under very
bright ambient light. Such features
are ideal for mobile devices that
require low power consumption.

Function
This pin can be connected directly to V
CC
(i.e., without series resistor)
at less than 3 V. Please refer to Table 1 for V
CC
versus Series Resistor, R1.
Leave this pin unconnected.
This pin is used to transmit serial data when SD/Mode pin is low. If this
pin is held high longer than ~100
µs,
the LED would be turned off when
used in conjunction with the SD/Mode pin. TXD is low at initialization.
This pin is capable of driving a standard CMOS or TTL load. No external
pull-up or pull-down resistor is required. It is in tri-state mode when the
transceiver is in shutdown mode and during digital serial programming
operations. RXD is high at initialization.
The transceiver is in shutdown mode if this pin is high for more than
400
µs.
On the falling edge of this signal, the state of the TXD pin sampled
and used to set receiver low bandwidth (TXD=low) or high bandwidth
(TXD=high) mode. See Figure 2 for bandwidth selection timings. SD is low
at initialization.
Regulated, 2.7 to 5.25 Volts.

Notes:
1. CX1 must be placed within 0.7 cm of the HSDL-3603 to obtain optimum noise immunity.
2. In environments with noisy power supplies, supply rejection performance can be enhanced
by including CX2, as shown in Figure 1: ”HSDL-3603 Functional Block Diagram“ on Page 2.

Bandwidth Selection Timing
The transceiver is in default SIR/
MIR mode when powered on.
User needs to apply the following
programming sequence to both
the SD and TXD inputs to enable
the transceiver to operate at FIR
mode.

Setting the transceiver to SIR/MIR
Mode (9.6 kb/s to 1.152 Mbit/s)
1. Set SD/Mode input to logic
HIGH
2. TXD input should remain at
logic LOW
3. After waiting for t
S
≥
25 ns,
set SD/Mode to logic LOW, the
HIGH to LOW negative edge
transition will determine the
receiver bandwidth
4. Ensure that TXD input remains
low for t
H
≥
100 ns, the
receiver is now in SIR/MIR
mode
5. SD input pulse width for mode
selection should be > 50 ns.
Setting the transceiver to FIR
(4.0 Mbit/s) Mode
1. Set SD/Mode input to logic
HIGH
2. After SD/Mode input remains
HIGH at > 25ns, set TXD input
to logic HIGH, wait t
S
≥
25 ns
(from 50% of TXD rising edge
till 50% of SD falling edge)
3. Then set SD/Mode to logic
LOW, the HIGH to LOW
negative edge transition will
determine the receiver
bandwidth
4. After waiting for t
H
≥
100ns, set
the TXD input to logic LOW
5. SD input pulse width mode
selection should be > 50ns.

Notes:
1. In-band IrDA signals and data rates
≤
4Mbit/s.
2. RXD logic low is a pulsed response. The condition is maintained for a duration dependent on pattern and strength of the incident intensity.
Caution:
The BiCMOS inherent to the design of this component increases the component’s suscepti-
bility to damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD). It is advised that normal static precautions be
taken in handling and assembly of this component to prevent damage and/or degradation, which
may be induced by ESD.
