IR Signal Decoder using TSOP and PIC Microcontroller Understanding IR Remote Protocols to build your own IR Signal Decoder using TSOP and PIC Microcontroller

IR remote is one of the simplest, easiest, and cheapest ways to transfer data wirelessly. The range of this device is not that much but that's exactly why it is perfect for simple Home Automation projects, TV Remotes, and others. Because of such a project, I had to interface an IR remote with a PIC microcontroller. My initial objective was to find a library for IR…

AVR Microcontrollers are Now Supported in MPLAB X IDE AVR Microcontrollers are Now Supported in MPLAB X IDE

Designers who have been using PIC microcontrollers (MCUs) and developed with the MPLAB ecosystem can now easily evaluate and use AVR microcontrollers into their applications. The majority of AVR microcontrollers are now beta supported with the release of MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment (IDE) version 5.05, available now from Microchip. New…
