MCP2120-I/SL Description
This MCP2120-I/SL is a low-cost, high-performance, fully static infrared encoder/decoder. This device sits between a UART and an infrared (IR) optical transceiver. Transceiver. The IR Transceiver also receives data which it outputs as electrical pulses. The MCP2120 decodes (demodulates) these electrical pulses and then the data is transmitted by the MCP2120-I/SL UART. This modulation and demodulation method is performed in accordance with the IrDA standard.
