The described circuit serves as an infrared (IR) receiver interface that enables communication between a standard infrared remote control and a personal computer (PC). This system utilizes the PIC16F84 microcontroller to decode the signals received from the infrared remote, allowing for control of various Windows applications.

The core of the circuit consists of an infrared receiver module, which detects IR signals emitted by the remote control. This module typically outputs a digital signal corresponding to the received IR pulses. The PIC16F84 microcontroller is programmed to interpret these signals, converting them into commands that the PC can understand.

The connection to the PC is established through a serial interface, specifically COM2, which allows for direct communication with the computer's serial port. The circuit design includes necessary components such as resistors and capacitors to stabilize the power supply and ensure reliable signal processing.

To implement this system, the user must first construct the hardware as per the provided schematic, ensuring all components are correctly connected. Following this, the user must program the PIC16F84 with the appropriate firmware that contains the logic for interpreting the IR signals and sending the corresponding commands to the PC.

Once the hardware is assembled and the microcontroller is programmed, the user can utilize various software applications that support infrared control, allowing them to operate their PC applications remotely through a compatible TV or VCR remote control. This setup provides a convenient way to manage media and other applications without the need for direct interaction with the computer.

Additionally, it is advisable to consider safety measures when operating the circuit, particularly in ensuring that the power supply is stable to prevent damage to the microcontroller and the PC. Proper grounding and signal integrity should also be maintained to ensure reliable operation.Briefly it`s an Infrared receiver which communicated with your pc to command many windows application, so once you have built the interface, programmed the pic16f84 with the code and connected everything to your serial com2 you`ll be able to command your pc applications through your TV or VCR remote !
