Description
The ZILOG ZHX1810 is a low-profile version of ZiLOG’s popular ZHX1010 1-meter transceiver. The transceiver is mechanically enhanced for ultra compact, power-conscious portable products, such as mobile phones, portable printers, handheld computers, and personal data assistants (PDAs). Designed to operate using the IrDA-Data mode, the transceiver combines an infrared emitting diode (IRED) emitter, a PIN photodiode detector, a digital AC coupled LED driver, and a receiver/decoder in a single package.
