MT Series Transcoder Module
Data Guide
Description
MT Series transcoders are designed for
bidirectional remote control applications. Eight 0.026
(0.65)
status lines can be set up in any combination
0.309
(7.85)
0.207 (5.25)
of inputs and outputs for the transfer of button
or contact states. An automatic confirmation
0.284
0.013
(7.20)
indicates that the transmission was successfully (0.32)
received. The large, twenty-four bit address size
makes transmissions highly unique, minimizing
the possibility of conflict between multiple
devices. The MT also outputs the ID of the
0.007
originating transcoder for logging or identification. (0.18)
0.030
(0.75)
Recognition of the individual outputs can be easily
defined for each device by the manufacturer or Figure 1: Package Dimensions
end user. This allows the creation of user groups and relationships. A Serial
Interface Engine (SIE) is provided, which allows configuration and editing of
the device and control of the transcoder by an external microprocessor or
PC. Housed in a tiny 20-pin SSOP package, MT Series parts feature low
supply voltage, current consumption and selectable baud rates.
