Demonstrating the Popular NEC Infrared Protocol (Download)
The NEC protocol is one of the most widely used standards for infrared (IR) communication in home automation applications like television remotes. It’s known for its robust and straightforward pulse-distance encoding scheme.
This article demonstrates how the Renesas SLG47011 can implement NEC protocol control logic efficiently by leveraging its built-in resources, eliminating the need for external components or complex microcontroller code. The SLG47011’s configurable architecture supports up to nine user-defined commands through the Memory Table Configurator, making it adaptable for a range of IR remote-control applications.
