If you are looking for quality IR Receivers, check out the list in our IR component starter kit, which is still available for a limited time (only to people who have AnalysIR). You can see a summary list below or the full detail here: http://www.analysir.com/blog/2013/08/20/infrared-component-kits/ ...

Our first set of feedback is as follows: AC Remote: YKR-M/001E AC Unit: Unconfirmed - possibly YORK Data Bits: 104 IR Receiver: SEN-10266 (actually a Vishay TSOP38238 ) Status: Pass ========================================================= AC Unit: Daikin Data Bits: 64 IR Receiver: TSOP4838 Status: ...

We have decided to open a new topic to record our user's experiences with the various IR receivers on the market. Most Air Conditioner IR protocols send the full configuration or settings every time a button is pressed. This bit-stream is much longer than TV IR protocols. As IR receivers are tuned f...

Unfortunately, this looks like a distorted signal - again. :( Try the following: - Using your remote, record signals from different angles & at different distances from the IR receiver. (I have even seen improvements, reflecting the remote off a wall or the ceiling) - Also try from distance acro...

I've tried with this now http://linksprite.com/wiki/index.php5?title=Infrared_Shield_for_Arduino /b HI I checked the data sheet of this shield and it appears that the IR signal out from the IR receiver goes to pin 11 on the Arduino. (you can verify this with a DMM) You should breadboard this (if po...

Played around with it a bit more...and this version only has 2 x 2 keys that return duplicate numbers, on my MCE infrared remote control. You will notice now that you get the toggle effect included (e.g. for the power key you will get 2 different numbers, alternating every press and for every key). ...

Thanks for the request & input. You will be happy to know that it is already on the wish list, but at a medium priority. We have a few more things to focus on before we get to it. (i.e. even more protocols supported etc) The reason we settled on this size is because it covers a lot of PCs and mo...

One behaviour I have noticed is sometimes the power button isn't detected on the first press if pressing another key first, i.e. If I press the stop button then the power button, I have to press power twice and its recognised on the 2nd press. You will notice there is a one second timeout(1000000 u...

Here is some code which should work for your requirements. There are 2 or 3 buttons on the MCE remote that return the same value as the power button (using this method), but that should suffice for your requirements. You will be able to get the code to compile well below 1.5k on the ATTiny, by remov...

Good news it works fine with IRremote. The images below were generated from a Nano running at 16Mhz with a relatively innacurate resonator (vs more accurate crystal). Note the duty cycle is 33% as I said above and can be adjusted in the library by ammending one definition as required. Good to know t...
