Brighter Irda (infra red leds for data transfer)
« on: December 02, 2009, 04:50:52 PM »
I was wonderin if anyone had the pinout of the infra red transmitter and knows a way to boost the power of the signal or what kind of leds i should use like 3mm or 0603 if i were to do this, also what wavelength should they be (i took out my umd drive so i have plenty of room). I ask this because id like to be able to turn on tvs from more than just a few feet away from them. And i do have a night vision scope so i can see how bright they are myself.

would a lm386 chip be able to boost the voltage without very much distortion?
