IR High Fidelity Remote Volume Controller Chip
Features:
- Controls up to four TI PGA2310 chips/eight audio channels
- Trainable - use it with a remote that you already have
- Volume of each channel can be offset +/- 12.5 dB. Offsets are stored in non-volatile EEPROM memory
- Dedicated Power and Balance Set outputs
- Mute function
- Five additional output signals can be configured as input selects or general-purpose toggles
- In addition to IR control, three pushbutton inputs are supported: Volume Up, Volume Down, Power On/Off
- LED flashes when enabled IR command is received
- Operates from 5 volts DC
- Low power operation
- Kit w/pc board available for easy implementation. (All through-hole components for easy assembly.)
Now you can enjoy the excellent audio performance of TI's new PGA2310 chip, and the convenience of IR remote control. New IRVC chip combines a Learning IR remote control recognizer with the logic needed to control TI's high-performance digital volume control IC. IRVC can also be used with the CS3310 chip from Crystal Semiconductor.

photo shows a populated IRVC pc board. IR sensor and Learn PB switch can
be seen near top right corner. TO-92 5 volt regulator is at top right
corner of pc bd.
If space for the IR receiver is tight, use our RS2 pc bd for just the IR receiver and its bypass capacitor, and connect it to the main pc board with a small ribbon cable:

Note: All parts needed to populate pc board, except the IRVC chip and the Vishay IR receiver module, can be purchased at www.Digi-Key.com. The IR receiver can be purchased at www.Mouser.com. Of course, the easiest way to get going is to purchase one of our complete kits.
IRVC Kit - $29.95
Includes IRVC Chip, PC-IRVC pc board, and all components needed to populate
board, 12" ribbon cable and female connector for PC-IRVC board end. Please
download chip data sheet,
assembly instructions,
schematic diagram, parts list, and
parts placement guide. Note: You will need to connect this board to either
one or more TI PGA2310 chips or one or more CS3310 chips to implement a working
volume control. These parts are not on the IRVC pc board and are not
included in the kit.
