Infared Transmitter/receiver Circuits, 3channel perfer lm555 timmer

at least 3channel prefer lm555 timer to turn on/off a load and to turn up and down volume. can anyone help me please

The forum accepts long posts. Too cryptic question. Need more data.

What are you interfacing to? Does it have digital volume controls? Why can't you use universal remotes? What is your skill & knowledge level & so on.

am entering my final year of electronics engineering. am controlling a class AB power amplifier with minimum 30wattspeak power. digital volume turning it up/down. am also turning 24vDc dual rail power supply to the amplifier on/off. no i cant use a universal remote marks are awarded for individual component

LM555 & LM567. A final year EE should be able to determine the rest from the datasheets of these two chips.

am not sure do i need more than one lm567 to decode the signal the setup is the prob not what to used. do i am i sending different frequencies what? explaination would be good, am more of an instrumentation minor no telecom or electronics

thanks man but timeis against me i need something that is common my country resources are limited etc.

have you tried to talk to YoxcQ in XQva? they distribute quite a few of the products in your country and they should have plenty of the KPQ chips (and XCVQ parts too) in inventory.

if that doesn't work, call IQER at 52-4259-236 and ask for Vqj and he will help you get the parts to you through VMQA.

hope it helps.

am from Jamaica i dont no what are those places you mention

In this case, three channels means three frequencies. If they aren't used simultaneously, you could use one 555 and vary its frequency with each button press. Otherwise, use one 555 for each frequency.

You'll need one LM567 (other tone decoders are also available) for each frequency unless it's a multi-unit assembly (not sure if multi-units are even viable).

This project shouldn't be too hard for anyone with basic electronics experience, but it may prove quite a challenge otherwise.

That's right, & the necessary decoder schematics are in the 567's datasheet.

With simple circuitry, these channels will give you on-off control. For volume up & down, you will have to use servo type arrangement.

thanks guys i have come across some of these earlier just looking for a all in one but i think am gonna have to go with what you suggest

You might google variations of "electronic volume control" and see what turns up in the way of ICs, kits, or schematics.

Just a thought. Let us know how it goes.

Actually... googling "digital volume control" might be a better option.

can i use the same photo transistor for all three 567 on the decoder i got a pair work but it on when the transmitter is off only when it detects the frequency it turns off that means i have to be constantly pointing the transmitter at it to keep it off

If you use only one switch at a time, that will work. If you press multiple switches (multiple IR modulation frequencies) at the same time, the circuit could get confused.

You'll need control circuitry on the IR receiver that only requires a momentary signal to do the actual switching.

can this work i ggole it but dont know if i will be able to get the ca3130 i cant get this IC anyway so forget it

You seem to have forgotten the image/link.

i would like to use some thing like this if its possible
