IrDA2 click
1. Introduction
IrDA2 Click™ is an accessory board in
mikroBUS
form factor. It's a compact
™
and easy solution for adding infrared
communication to your device. It features
TFDU4101 infrared transceiver module as
MCP2120
well as infrared encoder/decoder
connected with the 7.3728 MHz external
crystal. IrDA2 Click™ communicates with
target board via UART interface. The board
is designed to use 3.3V and 5V power
supply. It has a LED diode (GREEN) that
indicates the presence of power supply.
2. Soldering the headers
Before using your click board™, make sure
to solder 1x8 male headers to both left
and right side of the board. Two 1x8 male
headers are included with the board in
the package.

Turn the board upward again. Make sure
to align the headers so that they are
perpendicular to the board, then solder the
pins carefully.
3. Plugging the board in
Once you have soldered the headers your
board is ready to be placed into desired
mikroBUS™ socket. Make sure to align the
cut in the lower-right part of the board
with the markings on the silkscreen at the
mikroBUS™ socket. If all of the pins are
aligned correctly, push the board all
the way into the socket.
4. Essential features
TFDU4101
The combination of the
MCP2120 results in support for fast and
stab le infrared data communication. The
TFDU4101
infrared transceiver module
covers the full IrDA range of more than
1m and speed up to 115.2 kbit/s. With low
power consumption, all these features make
this board ideal for TV and video systems,
printers, fax machines, copiers, external
infrared adapters, diagnostic systems and
other industrial applications.
