STM32WB55 IR DA Hardware Setup?

Hello,

After looking over all the documentation I could find (datasheet, source primer, etc.), I couldn’t easily find how I’m meant to connect IR LED (s) for Ir DA communication with an STM32WB55. The image I attached is a screenshot from the reference primer, which implies that there may be IrDA_OUT and, IN pins (I am interpreting this as being separate from the TX and RX pins). Am I supposed to add some intermediate IC for Ir DA, or can the STM32WB55 actually output signals for driving/ reading IR LEDs photodiodes?

I am aware of the actuality of the IR_OUT pins, but that’s its own separate thing. In the IR_OUT documentation, they use only timers (TIM16 & TIM17), not the US ART supplemental.

Thanks and Regards

    Hello,

    IrDA has hardly been used for a long time, which is also marked in discontinued IrDA transceivers. However, since basically everything except the TIA and visual factors is included in the STM32 IrDA SIR ENDEC, it’s possible to recreate IrDA with

    • an IR LED plus driver transistor and
    • an IR photodiode plus TIA.

    RX and TX are switched to the IrDA function so that the LED driver and TIA can be connected directly.

    Regards

I’ve read quite a bit about needing a resistor when powering a 5 mm LED from an esp32 GPIO pin, still, other experts say that if a LED is powered right, it will not need a resistor at all will not burn out.

1. Is it as easy as purchasing a LED that’s powered properly for an esp32 GPIO pin so that it will not probably burn out in a reasonable amount of time( years)?
2. Still, what’s the current on each GPIO pin? ( I know that the voltage on each GPIO pin is 3, If so.3 V)
3. Rather than adding a resistor, I can add a second LED parallel to add resistance and meet the power requirements, right?

Thanks!

    The maximum power per pin is 40mA. You shouldn't push more than 150 mA through all your output pins( and probably less than that to avoid overheating).

You can find the correct resistor value using any led resistor calculator online and the datasheet for your led. I do not see how parallel resistors will be useful if you’re powering directly through the pin, and you do not have to get the exact resistance calculated. However, you should have a transistor gating a separate power supply for the light, If you need more than milliamps.

Internal Low-Side Switch in LED5000?

What’s the purpose of the internal low-side switch in LED5000? Is it a synchronous converter? If so, also why is an external Schottky shown in the application diagrams?

    Yes, it works in synchronous mode.

    still, after the low-side FET has been switched off, there’s always a specific dead time while the inductor still drives current. That current would flow through the body diode of the low-side FET, reducing effectiveness and increasing the radiated noise. This behavior can be improved by using a Schottky that takes over the current during the dead time.

We’re using the L6920 to drive a 1-watt LED.

We’re trying to apply the under voltage cut-off ( lockout) too. We chose the values of the voltage ground connected to the LBI pin similar that the value that comes to say 3V. Still, the IC didn’t shut off at 3V.
We also tried connecting the LBO to Vout with a 200K resistor in between. Even this didn’t work.

Can someone help apply this circuit?
Thanks!

    Perhaps you should debounce the button, as mechanical buttons bounce, i.e. may produce more than one pulse per button press.

    There are several techniques to do that, one of the easiest is to connect some small capacitor in parallel to the button, which together with the pull resistor forms some low pass filter. The time constant of that filter should be slightly lower than the period of the maximum speed to press that button(e.g.100.200 ms). You’ll find this solution also at the NUCLEO or DISCOVERY boards.

    You can DMA to the io pins (using a indirect buffer, transferring to GPIO output register). I controlled 48 Leds (16 RGB Leds) this way using a STM32L4(100 LQFP package). But this was to give independent brightness situations to each individual Led. But if all Leds are dimmed together (synchronised)Read more

    But if all Leds are dimmed together (synchronised), also you probably only need a single FET to sink all the Leds current, and use that FET to control the brightness (PWM)
