Here is the info about IR remote controls, in two parts. I hope they
help. I did not write either of them though...

Subject: Decoding IR remote controls with 8052
DECODING IR REMOTE CONTROLS
by Juergen Putzger
The origin of this posting was the question what to do with an old TV.
I suggested to use the infrared remote control as an input keyboard for a
microcontroller board and mentioned a piece of code I had written for
the 8052 microcontroller. I was asked by some people to share my
information about remote controls, so here it is:
There are at least two international standards which are used by remote
controls to encode the commands, the RC5 and RECS 80 code. The RECS 80
code uses pulse length modulation. Each bit to be transmitted is encoded
by a high level of the duration T followed by a low level of duration 2T
representing a logical '0' or 3T representing a logical '1'.
T 2T T 3T T 2T
_ _ _
| | | | | |
_| |__| |___| |__
0 1 0
Notice that a '1' takes more time to be transmitted than a '0'. The RC 5 code
instead has a uniform duration of all bits. A transition in the middle of the
time interval assigned to each bit encodes the logical value. A '0' is encoded
by a high to low transition and a '1' by a low to high transition. Therefore
we need additional transitions at the beginning of each bit to set the proper
start level if a series of equal bits is sent. We don't need this additional
transition if the next bit has a different value. This is also called a
'biphase' code.
|1.Bit|2.Bit|3.Bit|4.Bit|

Instead of being fed direct into the IR emitter, most remote controls modulate
a 20-30 kHz carrier with this signal. A logic one is represented by a burst of
oscillations.
______/\/\/\/\_______/\/\/\/\________
0 1 0 1 0
The reason is, that you can use a filter tuned to the carrier frequency
to distinguish the signal from noise in the ambient light. Fluorescent lamps
are the main source of such noise. Photodiodes behind an optical filter
which transmits infrared light but blocks visible light are used as detectors.
The signal from the photodiode is fed through a filter tuned to the carrier
fequency and then amplified. The amplified signal is demodulated just like
the carrier is demodulated in any AM radio receiver.

It can be a lot of pain to design a sensitive receiver that does'nt
start to oscillate. It is also necessary to have some automatic gain
control to avoid overload of the amplifier at close distance to the
emitter. It is easier to use some integrated circuit that does
all of the job. The best i have ever seen (and used) is the SFH505A
manufactured by SIEMENS (no, I don't work for this company). It looks
like one of this three legged voltage regulators and uses a single 5V
supply. It incorporates an optical filter, the photodiode, a filter
tuned to about 30 kHz , the amplifier with automatic gain control and
the demodulator.
If you don't know which code your remote control is transmitting you can
identify it by viewing the output of your receiver with an oscilloscope.
The RECS 80 code uses high pulses of uniform length while the low pulses
differ in length. If there are high and low pulses of two different lengths
it might be RC5 code. Note that your receiver may invert the levels.
How are commands like volume control or channel selction encoded? In the
case of the RC5 code there is an international standard. Every command is
encoded by 14 bits. The first two bits S are startbits to allow the receiver
to adjust the automatic gain control and to synchronize. Next a bit T
follows, that toggles with every new keystroke. Next is the address A of
the device which shall respond to the command. At last the command itself
follows.
| S | S | T | A4 | A3 | A2 | A1 | A0 | C5 | C4 | C3 | C2 | C1 | C0 |
Some important addresses and commands:
Address: Device: Command:
0 TV1 0...9 Numbers 0...9 (channel select)
1 TV2 12 Standby
5 VCR1 16 Master Volume +
6 VCR2 17 Master Volume -
17 Tuner 18 Brightness +
18 Audio Tape 19 Brightness -
20 CD Player 50 Fast rewind
52 Fast run forward
53 Play
54 Stop
55 Recording
There are integrated decoder circuits which have inputs to select the device
address and parallel outputs activated by the commands. Since this is comp.
robotics the devices you wish to control will have a microcontroller on board
which can do all the decoding. Here is an input routine I have written for
the 8052 microcontroller family to receive RC5 codes. My cousin has written
a similar routine for the RECS80 code which i will try to make available also.
Perhaps we can start a collection of such routines and archive them somewhere.
