The MCP2122 is a stand-alone IrDA standard encoder/
decoder device that is pinout-compatible with the
Agilent
The MCP2122 has two interfaces: the host UART
interface and the IR interface (see
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
discrete components. For additional information, please
refer to AN243, “Fundamentals of the Infrared Physical
Layer” (DS00243).
When the Host Controller transmits the UART format
data, the MCP2122 receives this UART data and
encodes (modulates) it bit by bit. This encoded data is
then output as electrical pulses to the IR transceiver.
The IR transceiver will then convert these electrical
pulses to IR light pulses.
The IR transceiver also receives IR light pulses (data),
which are outputted as electrical pulses. The MCP2122
decodes (demodulates) these electrical pulses, with
the data then being transmitted by the MCP2122
UART. This modulation/demodulation method is
performed in accordance with the IrDA standard.
