Inside a TV Remote Control by Marshall Brain 2004/09/26Weng If you are like most Americans, you probably pick up a TV remote control at least once or twice a day. Lets look inside and see how they work. Here is the remote we will be dissecting today: The remote controls job is to wait for you to press a key, and then to translate that key-press into infrared (pronounced infra-red) light signals that are received by the TV. When you take off the back cover of the control you can see that there is really just 1 part visible: a printed circuit board that contains the electronics and the battery contacts. The components that you see here are typical for most remotes. You can see an integrated circuit (also known as a chip) labeled TA11835. The chip is packaged in what is known as an 18 pin Dual Inline Package, or a DIP. To the right of the chip you can see a diode, a transistor (black, with three leads), a resonator (yellow), two resistors (green) and a capacitor (dark blue). Next to the battery contacts there is a resistor (green) and a capacitor (tan disk). In this circuit, the chip can detect when a key is pressed. It then translates the key into a sequence something like morse code, with a different sequence for each different key. The chip sends that signal out to the transistor to amplify the signal and make it stronger. The Circuit Board When you unscrew the circuit board and take it out, you can see that the circuit board is a thin piece of fiber glass that has thin copper wires etched onto its surface. Electronic parts are assembled on printed circuit boards because they are easy to mass produce and assemble. In the same way that it is relatively inexpensive to print ink onto a sheet of paper, it is inexensive to print copper wires onto a sheet of fiber glass. It is also easy to have a machine drop the parts (the chips, transistors, etc.) onto the sheet of fiberglass and then solder them on to connect them to the copper wires. When you loo
