wireless doorbell / button

Jan 28, 2015 10 Replies

Hi all



I was just wondering how those doorbells are made, where the button is wireless.



Or a system with say 2-4 buttons wireless?



I can think of all kind of complex solutions, but there must be a simple way - or chipset - for this


The receivers are COBs, xmitters are (cough) discreet.

I have a transmitter in front of me and it has at least one chip and what looks like a SAW device. The TX is discrete using one SM transistor.

The chip is a SM HT48RA0-2 8 bit MCU.

I'm adapting the doorbell to latch on and off an automatic antenna matching unit in a shed at the bottom of the garden. The unit is powered by solar panel & SLAB arrangement so I don't want it on all the time during the winter.

What is COB short for? Google find e.g. corn when looking for COB

Also, discrete* (@ Bob). Discreet is when they're being very quiet. (See also: 'complimentary' pairs.)

Black goo?

Usually a UV cure epoxy. Something which cures quickly to make produced goods able to be handled not long after application.

yes that is a very technical term for it ...

ofcourse, but unless you are going to make it at home in your kitchen that doesn't really matter
