Infrared Encoder/Decoder 8-Pin SOIC N Tube

The MCP2122 is a stand-alone IrDA standard encoder/ decoder device that is pinout-compatible with the Agilent HSDL-7000 encoder/decoder. The MCP2122 has two interfaces: the host UART interface and the IR interface. The host UART interfaces to the UART of the Host Controller. The Host Controller is the device in the embedded system that transmits and receives the data. The IR interface connects to an infrared (IR) optical transceiver circuit that converts electrical pulses into IR light (encode) and converts IR light into electrical pulses (decode). This IR optical transceiver circuit could be either a standard infrared optical transceiver (such as a Vishay TFDU 4300) or it could be implemented with discrete components.
