IR Blaster Module
About the IR Blaster Module
IR Blaster Module is an open source PCB design by aaakum4, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 80 × 20 mm, with 15 components from 7 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the Flipper_Zero. By type, the board carries 7 diodes, 6 resistors, 1 module and 1 transistor.
From the project
Now that I have made a custom Flipper, I use create some accessories for it to go with.
A custom expansion board for the Flipper Zero that adds WiFi capability and a high-power IR blaster, designed with safety, flexibility, and future expansion in mind.
This project was designed specifically for my custom Flipper Zero build, which can be found here: https://github.com/aaakum4/Sorta-Flipper-Zero
While the designs and files are shared openly, they should not be blindly copied or connected to a stock Flipper Zero without understanding the electrical implications. Component choices, power rails, and protection methods were selected with my particular setup and use case in mind. If…
