IR Receivers for Closed Cabinets In home theater applications, IR receivers are commonly used to control components in a cabinet with closed doors that obstruct the line of sight required by infrared.

An infrared receiver IC separates the modulated beam into a clean stream of 0s and 1s. The data stream is decoded by a microcontroller and sent to a computer over a USB connection.

The remote control must be in the direct line of sight when the IR is blast to the receiver. The pulse stream shown in Figure 2, has four parts: Lead-in, Command, Address, and Lead-out (not shown).

As AGC3 devices, the receivers are optimized for noisy environments and short burst codes. The TSOP313, TSOP323, TSOP343, TSOP383, and TSOP393 series of ultra-noise-resistant AGC3 IR remote control ...

For today's how-to we spent some time rummaging around in our parts box to build a serial IR remote interface for our PC. We took a few pieces from various designs to come up our own, built ...

Keeping your components out of sight is easy if you use an IR repeater to relay your remote control signals.

Cornwall-based DC Drives has developed a simple infra-red remote control with a range of over 500m, using conventional LEDs with no additional optics. “When we tested the prototypes, the range just ...

An IR repeater system takes Infrared (IR) light coming from your remote controller and converts it to an electrical signal that can be easily distributed over electrical wiring to one or more IR ...
