Introduction: Ir Remote Control
Hello! guys today i'm gonna show you how to make your own ir remote control with the help of this you can control your any home appliances. So let's get started
Step 1: Circuit Diagam and Components
Here it is the circuit diagram which we can build it with the help of this diagram. This diagram is available on google images i just saved it and make my own ir chip with this diagram.
Components:-
IC: cd4017 with base and TSOP 1738 (ir receiver)
Resistors: 4.7k x 2, 1k, 100 ohms,100k
Transistors: bc557 and bc547
5volt relay
Diodes: 1n4148 (zener)
Led: red or any other
Capacitors: 10uf
Step 2: Placing Components
put the components on vero board at right place according to diagram
Step 3: Soldering
i just make a solder track because it's much better than other type of soldering.
Step 4:
and finally its build by me its very easy.
I hope you guys like it.

can anyone please help me
when i did the circuit on the breadboard everything was working just fine bat when i did it on the pcb it isnt working. It isnt detecting thw remote but the circuit activates the relay when i insert a meral or smthng in between the transistor bc 547 lead .Do can anyone please help me out

Thanks for sharing thia project but I have a ton of questions
firstly, how do you program that thing so it works the way you want, for example how do I program it so I can increase and decrease fan speed

jali17 you can use PIC IC bcz its easy to use or may i'll give you a solution some day.
