Frequently Asked Questions

What data rates does MCP2150-I/SS support for IrDA communication?

The MCP2150-I/SS supports IrDA 1.0 standard data rates from 9.6 kbps up to 115.2 kbps, providing 12 selectable baud rates for flexible serial infrared communication in embedded designs requiring distances up to 1 meter.

Which supply voltage range is compatible with MCP2150-I/SS in battery-powered designs?

The MCP2150-I/SS operates from a 3.3 V to 5 V supply voltage range, making it compatible with both 3.3 V low-power microcontrollers and 5 V legacy systems, with typical current consumption below 5 mA during active transmission.

When would MCP2150-I/SS be chosen over a software-based IrDA implementation on a microcontroller?

MCP2150-I/SS offloads the full IrDA protocol stack in hardware, freeing the host MCU from bit-banging timing constraints at 115.2 kbps. Its 20-pin SSOP-20 package integrates framing and encoding, reducing firmware complexity and CPU cycles by handling IrDA layer 1 and 2 protocol management autonomously.
