2) Caution in designing board lay-out
To get maximum potential from RPM871-H12, please keep in mind following instruction.
The line of RXD (6pin) should be connected at backside via through hole close to RPM871-H12 pin lead. Better not to
be close to photo diode side (1pin).
This is to minimize feedback supplied to photo diode from RXD.
As for C1 between 3-4 pin should be placed close to RPM871-H12.
Better to be placed more than 1.0cm in radius from photo diode (pin1 side) and also aw ay from the part s which
generates noise, such as DC
/
DC converter .
3) Others
Please be sure to set up the TXD (7pin) input to be “L” (under 0.55V) except transmitting dat a
(for < 90µs, on duty < 20%).
Power dow n current might increase if exposed by strong light (ex. direct sun light) at powerdow n mode.
Please use by the signal format w hich is specified by IrDA V er1.2 (2.4k to 1 15.2kbp s). There might be on error if used
by different signal format.
