Sony remote control apply pulse width coding scheme for their protocol. The code exists of
12 bits sent on a 40kHz carrier wave. The code starts with a header of 2,4ms or
4 times T where T is 600µS. The header is followed by 7 command bits and 5
adres bits. The address and commands exists of logical ones and zeros. A
logical one is formed by a space of 600µS or 1T and a pulse of 1200 µS or 2T. A
logical zero is formed by a space of 600 µS and pulse of 600µS. The space
between 2 transmitted codes when a button is being pressed is 40mS The bits are
transmitted least significant bits first. The total length of a bitstream is
always 45ms. The detail of this protocol is depicted on the picture below (as
transmitted from the remote, at the receiver side, it is inverted):
How to decode that at the receiver?? This is my method :
- Configure an external interrupt at
the falling edge.
- If a falling edge found, start
Timer0 to count the time elapsed until a rising edge found.
- At the first time, always check
for a start bit based on it’s time length depicted above. If found than
set a flag for a sign for the next signal processing. If not found than
ignore the rest.
- If start bit found, then start to
count up every falling edge signal detected up to next 12bit. The shorter
length is denoted as zero (0) and the longer one is one (1), as depicted
above.
- After 12 bit data received, set a
flag indicate that the data is ready for reading and also reset the start
bit flag. This is my version. You can do other scheme of scenario.
My schematic used ATMEGA16, but you can use other chips as
long it got interrupt pin. For the sensor I used vcd remote control sensor, but
you can use any type that have filter of 38KHz to 40KHz on it. On the schematic
you see DS1307 RTC, LCD connector, and also LM386 amplifier, that’s the whole
project I build. But for this application note, I only focused on the Sony
decoding.
