I have a pair of I-Trigue 3300 speakers, which work great for a low-end pair. As you can see in the image below, they come with a wired remote control. I broke it down and did a bit of reverse engineering, and it's as simple as it gets. The dial is a variable resistor, few other resistors in the remote, and then pins back to the cable. I'm presuming that the speakers adjust volume based on the resistance of two pins.
In a living room, a wired remote is very inconvenient, so I'm looking to design a wireless solution. The wired remote adjusts bass, but for my wireless design, adjusting the volume only is sufficient.
So here is my current thought process, I'm hoping you guys may be able to think of an easier way to go about this:
IR Reciever -> Signal Decoder -> Digital Non-Volatile Pot -> Cabling
I don't have any specific IC chips in mind, I'm trying to avoid it being overkill. Is this design feasible without needing some MCU chip with custom code loaded in?
Thanks all
Eric
