infrared - IR receivers: how to interpet "Max. Envelope Duty Cycle vs. Burst Length"?


In the datasheet of an IR receiver IC, intended for remote control applications, there exists this graph.


Why is there such a sharp translation after a certain carrier impulse count?

Answer




From the datasheet first page:

So the control circuit (AGC - automatic gain control) circuits suppress background flicker like events to reject unwanted signals. This effect limits the length of data that can be sent.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
