In this project I am using Arduino Uno as an automated home switchboard demo. I am using infrared receiver to receive the signal from my TV remote. The infrared receiver output is fed to Arduino uno board. The data is analysed by arduino board and proper LED is switched ON and OFF (toggled) at Arduino pins.

Supplies

Arduino Uno 1

VS1838B Infrared receiver 1

220E resistor 5

LED (Red) 5

Jumper wires as required

Bread board 1

USB arduino cable 1

Step 1: Making the Project

The infrared receiver used in this circuit has three pins. Supply +Vcc(5V) ground and data pin. The data pin is output pin and it is connected to pin 2 of Arduino uno.

The received signal is analyzed by Arduino software and proper output pin is toggled.

The received data is displayed in serial monitor. Please refer to the circuit diagram and software files.

The circuit diagram, sketch and hex file is attached.

This is a tested project.
