A friend of mine is working on a remote control project for his EE senior lab. He doesn't have access to the net, so I'm posting this request for him. He wants to use the TI SN76832 and SN76881 receiver/transmitter chips. They are used for the design of receiver and transmitter systems (obviously) and are capable of highly relaible remote control functions for ranges of up to 50ft. I suspect these (or similar products) are used in many remote control applications. He can get the tech. data from the IC Master, but his main question is, where can he buy the parts? I presume he's looked in a catalog or two, but without much luck. Any suggestions? It would probably be best to E-Mail responses, as I don't think the net would be interested. Thanks in advance!

Did he ever think of contacting Texas Instruments themselves? He should be able to contact a sales office somewhere (phone numbers are listed in some parts catalogs, or someone at school might even have contacts with the folks at TI). Anyway, if it is for a senior project, they may be able to get him free samples. My roommate is working on a masters thesis, and he's been able to get several (major) parts at little or no charge. It's certainly worth a try! ----- Steve Lemke ------------------- "MS-DOS (OS/2, etc.) - just say no!" ----- Internet: steve@ivucsb.UUCP; lemke@apple.COM AppleLink: LEMKE ----- uucp: pyramid!comdesign!ivucsb!steve CompuServe: 73627,570 ----- alt.uucp: {decwrl!}sun!apple!lemke GEnie: S.Lemke ----- Quote: "What'd I go to college for?"
