The HSDL-3612 contains a high-speed and high-effi-
ciency 870 nm LED, a silicon PIN diode, and an integrat-
ed circuit. The IC contains an LED driver and a receiver
providing a single output (RXD) for all data rates sup-
ported.
The HSDL-3612 can be completely shut down to achieve
very low power consumption. In the shut down mode,
the PIN diode will be inactive and thus producing very
little photo-current even under very bright ambient
light. The HSDL-3612 also incorporated the capability
for adjustable optical power. With two programming
pins; MODE 0 and MODE 1, the optical power output
can be adjusted lower when the nominal desired link
distance is one-third or two-third of the full IrDA link.
The HSDL-3612 front view options (HSDL-3612-007/-
037) and a top view packaging option (HSDL-3612-
008/-038) come with integrated shield that helps to
ensure low EMI emission and high immunity to EMI
field, thus enhancing reliable performance.

Notes:
1. In-Band El ≤ 115.2 kb/s.
2. Logic Low is a pulsed response. The condition is maintained for duration dependent on the pattern and strength of the incident intensity.
3. To maintain low shutdown current, TXD needs to be driven high or low and not left floating.

Notes:
4. CX1 must be placed within 0.7 cm of the HSDL-3612 to obtain optimum noise immunity.
5. In “HSDL-3612 Functional Block Diagram” on page 1 it is assumed that Vled and V
CC
share the same supply voltage and filter capacitors. In case
the 2 pins are powered by different supplies CX2 is applicable for Vled and CX1 for V
CC
. In environments with noisy power supplies, including
CX2 on the V
CC
line can enhance supply rejection performance.

Marking Information
The HSDL-3612-007/-037 is marked “3612YYWW” on
the shield where “YY” indicates the unit’s manufactur-
ing year, and “WW” refers to the work week in which the
unit is tested.
CAUTIONS: The BiCMOS inherent to the design of this component increases the component’s susceptibility to dam-
age 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.
