Product description: High Power Infrared LED Emitter - module with IR emitter - STEMMA JST PH 2 mm - Adafruit 5639
High Power Infrared LED Emitter is a module manufactured by Adafruit equipped with a high power IR LED emitter . It also has a built-in N-Channel FET driver that allows you to emit an IR signal (from 100 mA to 200 mA of the current pulsing through each diode ) over a distance of more than 10 meters . There are two IR LEDs on the top of the board, one pointing upwards and one pointing to the side. The manufacturer also left space for soldering an additional 5 mm IR LED that allows to increase the emission range. The High Power Infrared LED Emitter is controlled by a digital signal fed through the STEMMA JST PH 2mm connector.
Principle of operation
High Power Infrared LED Emitter emits infrared light that is invisible to the human eye. In the upper part of the module there is a diode, thanks to which the user can observe the status of the emitter activation.
Pinout description and connection diagram
The module has outputs in the form of solder pads, to which goldpin connectors should be soldered. Alternatively, you can also use the JST PH 2 mm connector, which does not require soldering. The module should be connected with selected modules in accordance with the following description of the pins:
- V+ - power supply pin with voltage from 3 V to 5 V
- GND - system ground
- In - signal input pin; when the state is high - the IR LEDs are on, when low - the IR LEDs are off
More information about the pins can be found in the user's guide - check it out!
