Hi everyone,
I am building an infra red remote control I have finished building the decoder and the encoder. To transmit the control signal I am using 3 high output infra red LED. Now the question is what is the best way to connect the infra red LEDs?
Currently I am driving the 3 LEDs in parallel configuration with a single 5 ohm resistor and the power supply is 5volt. Why do I want to drive more than one led? because I want more power output.
Thanks in advance for help.
