Why am I using a squirrel as my new logo? That's why. Obviously, squirrels and electronics go well together.
And no, I don't trick her into doing that, I was not expecting that at all 😅

This is kind of fun. Using an infrared receiver module (TSOP38238) to display the signals produced by a Blu-Ray player remote control on an oscilloscope. The signals are active-low and pulse-width modulated.
#electronics #oscilloscope

A TV/Blu-Ray player remote control pointed at a simple circuit on a proto-board. When buttons are pressed on the remote, the oscilloscope in the background displays pulse-width modulated patterns. Next to the remote is a datasheet for the IR receiver module on the proto-board.
