Description

The KY-022 IR Infrared Receiver Sensor Module is a versatile electronic component for reading commands from most IR remotes. It features the VS1838B IR receiver chip, detecting modulated infrared emissions from remote control transmitters at a 38kHz oscillator frequency. Infrared communication involves encoding bursts of 38kHz pulses with varying protocols, allowing for unique signals and preventing interference between close-proximity robots. Additionally, the KY-022 can function as an IR locator, detecting object movement at a distance between the LED and the sensor, making it ideal for robotics with low current consumption and signal differentiation capabilities.

Features:

  • Infrared Receiving Head: The module uses the VS1838B infrared receiving head, which is a reliable and commonly used IR receiver chip.
  • Light Resistance: The module has good light resistance and can operate under 500 lux light intensity, making it suitable for use in environments with varying levels of light.
  • Strong Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Resistance: The module is designed to resist electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable and reliable performance in noisy environments.
  • Built-in IR Dedicated IC: The module is equipped with a built-in infrared dedicated IC, which improves its sensitivity and accuracy in detecting IR signals.
  • Low Power Consumption: The module has a low current consumption, making it ideal for use in battery-powered devices.
  • Versatile: The module can read commands from most IR remotes and can be used to detect the movement of objects at a distance of half a to three meters.
  • Unique Signal: The modulation of IR Emission allows each sensor to have a unique signal, enabling multiple robots to operate in a small area without interfering with each other.
