In order to help his friend prepare for a talk at DEFCON this weekend, [Craig] built an IR photodiode amplifier circuit. The circuit extended the detection range of the hack from a few inches to a few ...

Vishay Intertechnology has introduced its first signal conditioning ICs suitable for processing IR remote control signals from discrete photodiodes. The standard IR remote control receivers include ...

This circuit uses invisible infrared light to detect the movement of people through the door. A short beep will be generated when the infrared beam breaks. So it is ideal to monitor the passages in ...

Researchers at the University of Turku, Finland, have developed an organic infrared photodiode that achieves record-level ...

The circuit illustrates how the modulated carrier of infrared is measured by displaying the waveform on a frequency counter after the signal received is amplified. Remote control – an electronic ...

Detecting infrared light is critical in an enormous range of technologies, from remote controls to autofocus systems to self-driving cars and virtual reality headsets. That means there would be major ...

Hamamatsu Photonics introduces a new Photonic Integrated Circuit (Photo IC), P13567-02CT, with applications as an optical moisture detector. This sensor integrates an InGaAs PIN photodiode and a LED ...

Detecting infrared light is critical in an enormous range of technologies, from remote controls to autofocus systems to self-driving cars and virtual reality headsets. That means there would be major ...

Imec, the nanoelectronics and digital technologies research hub, has announced the successful integration of a pinned photodiode structure into thin-film image sensors. With the addition of a ...
