Simple IR Remote Control Transmitter-Receiver Circuit

This is a simple design circuit for infra red remote control transmission. This remote transmits a tone using an infra red LED. This tone is decoded by the receiver. Since the receiver only switches when it "hears" the tone, there are no accidental activations. This is the figure of the circuit.


Remote Control Setup
1. To adjust the circuit, hold down S1 while pointing LED1 at the receiver. Adjust R6 until you hear the relay click.
2. You can increase range by using a high output LED for LED1.
3. Bright light will stop the receiver from responding to the transmitter.
4. There is an error in the schematic. There should be a 1 mega ohm resistor between pin 3 of IC1 and ground. This provides a 0 volt reference to bias the IC.
