Abstract
An infrared signal generator with an interface for receiving an encoded infrared command; and protocol generation circuitry for generating a bitstream that comprises one or more data words that comprise data to be transmitted and one or more protocol words that describe symbols of an infrared protocol is presented. Optionally, the protocol generation circuitry comprises a first circuit for generating a data word and a second circuit for generating a protocol word. Optionally, the infrared signal generator comprises a carrier frequency generator which is selectively combined with the output of either the first circuit or the second circuit to provide a drive signal for an infrared transmitter.
