Motor Control Robots with Voltage Regulator - IR Transmitter Receiver Module
IR Transmitter Receiver Module
- Infrared (IR) communication is a very common wireless communication technology.
- IR communication is an easy to use and inexpensive wireless communication.
- IR Communication generally comprises of IR Transmitter and Receiver.
- When the push button is high , the stage of motor is running in a low speed.
- When the push button is low , the stage of motor is running in a high speed.
- L293D is called a dual H-bridge motor driver integrated circuit (IC).
- Motor drivers act as current amplifiers then they take a low-current control signal and provide a higher-current signal. This higher current signal is used to drive the motors.
- L293D contains two inbuilt H-bridge driver circuits. It contains two DC motors can be driven simultaneously, both in forward and reverse direction is its common mode of operation
IR Transmitter Receiver Module Circuit
Advantages
- IR Transmitter and Receiver pair form a simple circuit which can be easily built.
- Can be used for simple remote controlling applications, small data transfer, etc.
- IR Transmitter and Receiver pair as a module can be used in security applications, proximity sensors, distance measurement applications, etc.
Disadvantages
- IR Transmitter and Receiver require line of sight communication i.e. they need to be facing each other.
- The range of IR communication is less and is reliable for short range and small amounts of data.
