Product Overview
The MCP2140A is a cost-effective, low pin count (18-pin), easy-to-use device for implementing IrDA standard wireless connectivity. It provides support for the IrDA standard protocol stack, bit encoding/decoding, and low-cost, discrete IR receiver circuitry. The MCP2140A is footprint compatible with the MCP2140. The serial and IR interface baud rates are fixed at 9600 baud. The MCP2140A operates in Data Communication Equipment (DCE) and Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) applications, residing between a UART and an infrared optical transceiver. It encodes asynchronous serial data streams into infrared (IR) formatted pulses and decodes received IR pulses for the host controller. The MCP2140A supports point-to-point applications, operating as a secondary device.
