Crimzon^® RC Blaster^TM
Your Complete Turnkey Infrared System-on-Chip Solution
Overview
Crimzon RC Blaster is a complete system-on-chip solution that allows you to quickly and cost
effectively add universal remote control capability to any of your digital devices. This total turnkey solution
provides instant control capability of any infrared home entertainment device, including Satellite/Cable set-top
boxes, TVs, DVD/DVR players, VCRs and audio systems through a simple serial interface.
When you embed the Crimzon RC Blaster chip in your design, the Master CPU can control the Crimzon RC
Blaster via a simple UART/I²C interface. Once communication is established with your system, the Master
CPU can access the complete IR database, including North American (NA) coverage for TVs, DVDs, VCRs,
Satellite/Cable set-top boxes and audio devices, plus European database coverage specifically for Satellite/
Cable set-top boxes. The Crimzon RC Blaster transmits the necessary IR signals through an infrared LED and
supports an IR learning feature.
The Crimzon RC Blaster contains over 1,200 infrared code sets that control a wide variety of the most popular
home entertainment devices. Included on-chip is an integrated learning algorithm that can capture and
replicate infrared signals from any new or existing devices not supported in the database, thereby reducing
the need for customer support resources. These learned code sets can be downloaded into the EEPROM to
provide for future upgrades to the infrared database code set. These key features provide for a perfect drop-in
universal remote control database solution.
The Crimzon® family of Universal Infrared (UIR) solutions are the industry’s leading choice for universal re-
mote control (URC) applications. Zilog has offered highly integrated Application Specific microcontrollers and
complete URC solutions since 1993. As the market leader in universal remote control applications, Zilog is
the only company that offers a complete solution, including highly integrated silicon, ZBase^®, our world-class
Infrared code database, a wide variety of design tools and engineering support services.
