DIGITAL PROPORTIONAL REMOTE
CONTROLLER

DESCRIPTION
The TX7/RX7 are a pair of IC designed for digital proportional DIP-14
radio control system, where TX7 is the transmitter and RX7 is the
TX7
receiver. The TX7/RX7 provide a 3-channel remote controller for
digital remote controlled car application. TX7/RX7 have 3 channels,
CH1, CH2 and CH3. CH1 is a digitized control handling forward and
backward motions, where 7 steps controlling motor forward speed,
and another 7 steps for backward speed. CH2 is a digitized
proportional control used to steer servo-motor consisted of 32 steps RX7
DIP-16
to drive angles in left and right directions. CH3 is the ON/OFF
control. In addition, RX7 also provides auto power-off function to


detect excessive current of forward/backward motor under special

conditions according to toy safety requirements.

COMMENT
Never allow a stress to exceed the values listed under "Absolute Maximum Ratings", otherwise the device would
suffer from a permanent damage. Nor is a stress at the listed value be allowed to persist over a period, since an
extended exposure to the absolute maximum rating condition may also affect the reliability of the device, if not
causing a damage thereof.
