Edson, why not use a 3 volt supply to begin with? Good enough for the PIC, good enogh for the IR, and ideal for low power consumptin, Anand Dhuru ----- Original Message ----- From: "Edson Brusque (Listas)" To: Sent: Sunday, August 04, 2002 4:39 AM Subject: [PIC]: IR remote control with a PIC, wake-on-rb-change, power suply > Hello, > > We're wanting to make our own remote control for using with our > products.
