Adafruit TSSP77038 38KHz Infrared IR Demodulator Breakout - STEMMA JST PH 2mm

Our IR decoding breakout is designed around the TSSP series of chips from Vishay, offering a simpler alternative to traditional 'remote control' receivers. These chips provide demodulated output from a 38KHz signal without any filtering on the received codes. Primarily intended for "Reflective Sensing, Light Barriers, and Fast Proximity Applications" by Vishay, these sensors are ideal for projects requiring a less 'intelligent' IR decoder or proximity sensing where a full-fledged VCNL I2C sensor isn't necessary. They excel in break-beam setups where modulated IR light is used, mitigating interference from other IR signals or ambient light changes. This breakout board facilitates various IR detecting projects, featuring mounting holes and a cable for easy enclosure and device integration. Utilizing a 2mm pitch STEMMA JST PH cable with headers or alligator clips, wiring the board requires no soldering. Please note that while this board can receive 38KHz IR remote control signals, it lacks a filtering system, potentially resulting in spurious signals. Each STEMMA board is fully assembled and tested PCB, excluding the cable. No soldering is necessary for usage; however, a 2mm pitch, 3-pin STEMMA JST PH cable is required. Alternatively, for those preferring soldering, a 0.1" spaced header for power/ground/signal is available.
