35.7.5.3 IrDA Demodulator
The demodulator is based on the IrDA Receive filter comprised of an 8-bit down counter which is loaded with the
value programmed in US_IF. When a falling edge is detected on the RXD pin, the Filter Counter starts counting
down at the Master Clock (MCK) speed. If a rising edge is detected on the RXD pin, the counter stops and is
reloaded with US_IF. If no rising edge is detected when the counter reaches 0, the input of the receiver is driven
low during one bit time.
Figure 35-35 illustrates the operations of the IrDA demodulator.
Figure 35-35. IrDA Demodulator Operations
As the IrDA mode uses the same logic as the ISO7816, note that the FI_DI_RATIO field in US_FIDI must be set to
a value higher than 0 in order to assure IrDA communications operate correctly.
