BOOST-IR Infrared (IR) BoosterPack™ Plug-in Module
The BOOST-IR BoosterPack™ Plug-in Module can be plugged into a LaunchPad™ Development Kit for
simple integration of infrared (IR) transceiver functionality. LaunchPad developers can use this
BoosterPack to start developing remote control applications using the on-board keypad, IR LED
transmitter, and IR re demodulator.
Infrared modulation can be simplified by using on-chip IR Modulation Logic, which can be found on select
MSP430 ultra-low-power microcontrollers within the MSP430FRxx MCU series.

TI Designs are also available to help accelerate development using IR transceiver capabilities. These
designs contain documentation, design files, and test data to minimize design overhead.
