Vishay Infrared IR Receivers

Vishay Infrared (IR) Receivers enable designers to select devices offering the optimal balance of coding speed and noise suppression for a wide range of uses. These receivers provide a broad range of products, holders, application support, technical resources, and comprehensive expertise in infrared communication. The Vishay IR receivers operate within a temperature range from -25°C to +85°C and a maximum carrier frequency of 455kHz. These components offer an operating supply voltage range from 2V to 6V and a maximum operating supply current of 5.5A. Typical applications include TV sets, media players, slide projectors, air-conditioners, data communication, and audio components.
