RF based Remote Controls are becoming more prevalent as they enable non line-of-sight and provide bi-directional communication. A high-end remote control typically has a graphics display, a number of keys and a radio to communicate with the target devices.
Microchip’s Remote Control Demo Board (Part # DM240315-2) integrates Graphics, mTouch, USB and RF4CE into a single demo. The board demonstrates a remote populated with PIC24FJ256DA210 MCU, 3.5" Graphical TFT LCD with resistive touch screen, capacitive touch keys with plastic overlay, MRF24J40 2.4 GHz transceiver and ZENATM wireless Adapter.
