Hello
I have developed a module employing the Vishay IR detector TSOP 38236 and a Microcontroller.It works satisfactorily,but for an issue.
If the TSOP is mounted far from the board via long wires ,the MCU is not able to pickup the signal.I investigated furthe with a DSO to find some electrical noise on the o/p pin.This noise manifests only when an electronic ballast CFL lamp is switched on the same phase.My ckt is not isolated from mains.
If the TSOP is poplulated on the board itself,then i have no issues.
How can this be taken care of?
I am thinking of putting 3 separate wires coiled from the IR det to the board.Will this help?
Please get back..
Thanks
