Dmitry Grinberg had a few PIC12F1840 MCUs lying around, and wanted to use them in some type of IR remote control project. He decided to construct a remote control mood light using the PICs in both transmitter and receiver. Four high-brightness LEDs (White, Red, Green, and Blue) are used to combine to form different colors in the receiver unit housed in a jar, along with a 38 kHz IR receiver module. The commands are generated by a PIC (housed in a gutted remote control housing) and transmitted via IR LED.
Dmitry has the code (Hi-TECH C is used to compile it), as well as the ASM files and hex files available on his website.
Thanks Dmitry! Via the contact form.
