ATA2526
1. Description
The IC ATA2526 is a complete IR receiver for data communication developed and
optimized for use in carrier-frequency-modulated transmission applications. The IC
combines small size with high sensitivity as well as high suppression of noise from
daylight and lamps. An innovative and patented pad layout offers unique flexibility for
assembly of IR receiver modules. The ATA2526 is available with standard frequencies
(33, 36, 37, 38, 40, 56 kHz) and 3 different noise suppression regulation types (stan-
dard, lamp, short burst) covering requirements of different high-volume remote control
solutions (please refer to selection guide available for ATA2525/ATA2526). The
ATA2526 operates in a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V.
The function of the ATA2526 can be described using the block diagram of
Figure 1-1
on page 2.
The input stage meets two main functions. First it provides a suitable bias
voltage for the PIN diode. Secondly the pulsed photo-current signals are transformed
into a voltage by a special circuit which is optimized for low noise applications. After
amplification by a Controlled Gain Amplifier (CGA) the signals have to pass a tuned
integrated narrow bandpass filter with a center frequency f
0
which is equivalent to the
chosen carrier frequency of the input signal The demodulator is used first to convert
the input burst signal to a digital envelope output pulse and to evaluate the signal
information quality, i.e., unwanted pulses will be suppressed at the output pin. All this
is done by means of an integrated dynamic feedback circuit which varies the gain as a
function of the present environmental conditions (ambient light, modulated lamps
etc.). Other special features are used to adapt to the current application to secure best
transmission quality.

2. Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating
only and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of this
specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
