I am trying to figure out the best way to build an IR remote control. I was going to use momentary switches on the remote and need 18 switches. The remote is going to eventually control a preamplifier I am building for a senior design project which is still a few semsters away. I figure it is never too early to get started. I have know good working schematics that I have built for most of the analog devices I am going to use. The hard thing for me is implementing the LCD display and the remote is going to be tough. I have found a number of encoders/decoders of varing styles but I am unsure what would be the easiest for my application. I would need the following buttons: Volume-up-dn, Treb-up-dn, Bass-up-dn, Tone defeat, Bal--left-right, Low-up-dn, Mid-up-dn, High-up-dn, Mute, Sub-up-dn. I also intend to provide the same switches at the unit for manual adjustment. Each switch or output from the decoder will drive digital pots on the respective boards and output the level to a LCD display. I need some help getting started with the remote first what scheme to use...
Thanks,
