Dear list, Since long I'm searching a way to get an usb receiver which is easy to build and the parts are also easily available. Presently my concentration is on FTDI based solution by A. J. Huitsing. But I am little confused here. Should I only buy a USB to serial converter which are available in the local market and add the TSOP into it ? any particular model ? Kindly enlighten me. thanks. |
