Application information
TSH511
This section provides application information for some typical applications.
7.1
Infrared stereo headphone application
The right side of Figure 21 shows the block diagram of an infrared stereo receiver using the
TSH511. The sensitive LNA, directly connected to the photo diode, does not require an
external pre-amplifier. After filtering, the amplified signals are limited and demodulated with
quadrature demodulators. The two integrated audio buffers directly drive the stereo
headphones. The audio power reaches 2x20mW in two 16Ω loads. The built-in squelch
function fades out the audio when the incoming infrared signal is low. The standby inputs
SBY1 and SBY2 enable only one receiver for the mono applications.

The infrared carriers are detected by the photo diode and the signal is directly amplified by
the TSH511. Each receiver has a standard bandpass filter (filters F1 & F2) to select the
2.3MHz and 2.8MHz carriers. After the FM demodulators, the potentiometer P1 controls the
volume levels. The stereo headphones are directly connected to the integrated audio
buffers. The potentiometer P2 allows adjustment of the sensitivity of the Squelch. The
Squelch function fades in and fades out the audio signal, depending on the level of the
2.8MHz carrier.
