Product Description

TX2B / RX2B Remote Control Encoder Decoder IC Pair

5-Channel Wireless Remote Control IC Set for Arduino

The TX2B and RX2B are a matched pair of CMOS LSI chips designed for wireless remote control applications [citation:3][citation:5]. The TX2B serves as the encoder/transmitter IC, while the RX2B functions as the decoder/receiver IC. Together they provide 5channel control (Forward, Backward, Left, Right, and Turbo) for remotecontrolled cars, robots, and automation projects [citation:3][citation:5].

Complete encoder/decoder pair for 5-channel wireless control
Requires external RF circuits (27MHz typical) - not just the ICs alone [citation:1][citation:5]
Wide operating voltage: 1.5V5.0V for TX2B, 1.5V5.0V for RX2B [citation:3]

How It Works

The TX2B encodes button presses into a digital signal. This encoded signal is then modulated onto an RF carrier (typically 27MHz) using external RF circuits [citation:1][citation:5]. The RX2B receives and demodulates the signal, then decodes it to activate corresponding output pins [citation:5].

Transmitter Side: Push buttons → TX-2B encodes → RF transmitter circuit → Antenna

Receiver Side: Antenna → RF receiver circuit → RX-2B decodes → Output pins

Both ICs require external RF circuits - they are codec ICs, not complete transceivers [citation:1]
Typical carrier frequency is 27MHz using crystal oscillator [citation:1][citation:5]
The encoded signal at TX2B pin 8 is without carrier needs RF modulation [citation:5]
