IRM3638T Integrated IR Receiver

Infrared Receiver Module IRM3638T Series – High Sensitivity 38kHz IR Receiver

The Infrared Receiver Module IRM3638T Series is an advanced infrared remote control receiver engineered using the latest IC technology. It integrates a highly sensitive PIN diode and a low-noise preamplifier assembled on a precision lead frame and encapsulated in a black epoxy package that acts as an efficient IR filter.

Optimized for 38kHz carrier frequency, the IRM3638T delivers a clean, demodulated digital output that can be directly decoded by microcontrollers such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other embedded platforms. Its high immunity to EMI, ambient light, TFT, and PDP backlight interference ensures stable operation even in electrically noisy environments.

With low operating voltage, low power consumption, and long reception range, the Infrared Receiver Module IRM3638T is a reliable choice for modern IR-based control systems used in AV equipment, multimedia devices, and automation projects.

Manufactured in compliance with RoHS and EU REACH, this IR receiver module is suitable for both industrial and consumer electronics applications.
