2.1 Configuration of <strong>the</strong> <strong>IR</strong> <strong>Remote</strong> <strong>Control</strong> Unit<br />

An <strong>IR</strong> remote control transmitter generates infrared rays to a receiver by ways of a digital control frame<br />

pattern. The infrared transmitting diode and <strong>the</strong> infrared receiving module are important components for<br />

an efficient <strong>IR</strong> transmission through air. The carrier frequency for home appliance applications is typically<br />

around 38kHz.<br />

A typical configuration of <strong>IR</strong> remote control is shown in Figure 2-1.<br />
