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 ...

Over on his YouTube channel [Electronic Wizard] has released a video that explains how infrared (IR) remote controllers work: IR Remote Controllers protocol: 101 to advanced. This video covers the NEC ...

Even though some devices now use WiFi and Bluetooth, so much of our home entertainment equipment still relies on its own proprietary infrared remote control. By and large (when you can find them) they ...

Today we are going to explain about a simple circuit which is used to switch on/off any electrical device remotely through a relay using the normal TV/VCR/VCP/VCD remote control unit. First of all, ...
