IR(infrared) Remote Control Relay Board with PIC 12F675 Microcontroller


Introduction          

        This little project will demonstrate how you can use your old NEC IR protocol based TV,DVD or VCR remote control to control you home appliances like fan bulb or virtually anything.

Consumer IR protocols    
    There are a number of consumer Infrared protocols out there and they have been used for every single purpose possible i guess, like PDA laptops and other consumer appliances. RC-5 & RC-6 by Phillips , RCA are few examples of consumer IR protocols.


       In this demonstration we will stick the to NEC protocol by NEC corporation,



NEC Protocol Based Remote Control for this Bord 
Remote Control for This Board

NEC Infrared Protocol 


  • A 9ms leading pulse burst (16 times the pulse burst length used for a logical data bit)
  • A 4.5ms space
  • The 8-bit address for the receiving device
  • The 8-bit logical inverse of the address
  • The 8-bit command
  • The 8-bit logical inverse of the command
  • Final 562.5µs pulse burst to show end of message transmission.
Bit Timing 
  • Logical '0' – a 562.5µs pulse burst followed by a 562.5µs space, with a total transmit time of 1.125ms
  • Logical '1' – a 562.5µs pulse burst followed by a 1.6875ms space, with a total transmit time of 2.25    

The transmission of 0 and 1 is shown in the image blow 


  
           There are  four bytes of data bits are being sended in  least significant bit first order the figure blow shows the format of an NEC IR transmission frame, for a 
command of 0xB1 (10110001b) and an address of 0x8D (10001101b) .






16 bits for the address (address + inverse) require 
27ms to transmit time .and the 16 bits for the command (command + inverse) also require 27ms to transmit time.  

because (address + address inverse) or (command+command inverse) will always contain 8 '0's  and 8 '1's    so (8 * 1.125ms) + (8 * 2.25ms) == 27 ms . 
according to this total time required to transmit the frame is (9ms +4.5ms +27ms+27ms) = 67.5 ms. 


Verify with Oscilloscope and logic analyser 

 the image  give blow is take by Rigol DS1052E Oscilloscope 


Logic Analyser shows the timing details
T1 leading pulse at  84.115ms 
T2  space on 93.28ms 
T3 Address starts at 97.580ms
T4 Address ends , address inverse starts 107.670ms
T5 address inverse ends , command starts at 124.486ms
T6 Command ends, command inverse starts 135.696ms
T7 Command inverse ends and last 562.5µs pulse to show end of transmission 




Extended NEC protocol (not used in this demonstration)       
        
         The NEC protocol is so widely used that soon all possible addresses were used up. By sacrificing the address redundancy the address range was extended from 256 possible values to approximately 65000 different values. This way the address range was extended from 8 bits to 16 bits without changing any other property of the protocol. The command redundancy is still preserved. Therefore each address can still handle 256 different commands.in extended protocol instead of sending address and address inverse we send address low and address high as shown in the image blow.






Repeat Codes

          If the key on the remote controller is kept depressed, a repeat code will be issued, typically around 40ms after the pulse burst that signified the end of the message. A repeat code will continue to be sent out at 108ms intervals, until the key is finally released. The repeat code consists of the following, in order:

A 9ms leading pulse burst
A 2.25ms space
A 562.5µs pulse burst to mark the end of the space (and hence end of the transmitted repeat code).
the figures give blow show the timing of repeat codes



if user keeps the key depressed the repeat codes keep coming

T8 shows the timing of repeat code 



Decoding NEC Protocol with microcontroller 

        Decoding NEC is really easy ,there are certainly various methods to do, some examples i have see n used polling method in which the firmware keep polling the input pin of microcontroller which connects to IR sensor , other method is to user interrupt ,in this demonstration we will be using the interrupt method as this one is better, we will be using interrupt on change.

Schematic  : 

Because of power supply , Decoupling capacitor 100nF and 10uF is recommended on pin 1 and GND , as point out by readers.

  16. if you want to interface lcd with only 2 pins then follow this post blow

    http://www.circuitvalley.com/2011/12/two-wire-serial-lcd-16x2-graphics.html

    but i guess you need to modify both of the source so that both IR decoder and LCD driver both can fit into this tiny mcu's flash.
    so i recommend you to use bigger mcu,at least big in terms of flash size .

  25. Thanks for the code. I have implemented it for PIC16F877A and PIC16F628A and it is working almost fine. Only there is some problem occurs when certain 2-3 keys of remote are pressed, sometimes the receiver does not respond. It hangs. Also plz if you can give suggestion to detect the key release of remote button. For example I have to do certain task only till remote button is pressed. Once the button is released the task to stop.

  27. Is it a standard that every remote control like Philips,Sony etc transmits data with the carrier frequency of 38 KHz? If not what other carrier frequencies are used

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. its not about the brand , its about the protocol they use i mean all the
      NEC based IR will use 38Khz
      RC-5 IR protocol use 36Khz
      RCA IR protocol use 56Khz
      Sony SIRC protocol use 40Khz

      i universal remote i believe will go from 36Khz to 40Khz

      different frequency for ir may be
      25KHz
      33KHz
      36KHz
      38KHz
      56Khz

      38Khz is most common

  29. Great project, I am using 16 bit extended address protocol IR remote and i have modified the instruction if((!(address & notaddress)) && (!(command & notcommand))) to if(!(command & notcommand))only but i can not get it up to run.
    2)The indication LED will blink when i press a button from my IR remote but I cannot turn off any LEDs.
    3)I do not have a scope to read the code sent from my remote. I m using Arduino's IR remote program written by Ken Shariiff to read the code, again my PIC12f675 is not turning off any LEDs.

    I have been debugging this for weeks, advice is needed. Anyone please help. Thank you.

      When i power up the PIC12f675, three LEDs will light on and when i press a button on my IR remote,the LED attached to gpio5 will blink once. When i press any other button,the rest of the other LEDs still lighting on.

  30. Firstly, #define TICKSPERMS 1004, It is actually 1000 na. 1 usec for each inc.

    Secondly, tdiff = ((timer<<8)+TMR0) ; This right shifting brings higher value na.

    ReplyDelete
  31. 1. its not "#define TICKSPERMS 1004 " it is "//#define TICKSPERMS 1004" its commented please pay little attention.
    "It is actually 1000 na. 1 usec for each inc" where did i mention that 1us for each increment, who told you that boy?
    it may be true only and only if the oscillator is absolute at 4Mhz but its not its +-1% so tweak the value for the mcu i have. and i am very sure you did't understand NEC protocol otherwise you must have known that these delay values are need not to be absolute spot on.

    2. "This right shifting brings higher value na" what does this even means? please use some technical word to specify your concern.

    code has no error or bugs at all.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. First of all, Thanks Mr Gaurav for early reply. I understood the TICKSPERMS clearly now. I'm sorry for not using technical word.I am iterating your code and got stuck often. I'm beginner on IR Protocol. Hopefully soon I will achieve NEC through my continuous efforts and your help.

      The second doubt is..
      Timer overflow occurs for every 256 usec. For Eg., we are continuously receiving 0 and 1 from IR Transmitter. At that case timer count would be 4+TMR0 (0) and 8+TMR0 (1).

      tdiff = ((timer<<8)+TMR0); At this step the tdiff value for 0 is 1024+TMR0 and for 1 is 2048+TMR0.

      In the If Condition we are checking as if ((tdiff>8032) && (tdiff<11044)), at this point i feel the condition will never become true.

      I am trying to convert yours to PIC16F877A. Please don't get angry,I am sure that something i am ignoring on this well working code. Please help me out.

      Delete
    2. this code is quite old and seems to be well proven to work and not to stuck any where , as we used interrupt for most of the job. the state machine never comes across any dead state, even if something wrong happen interrupt will take care of that. for a bit more recovery mechanism you can use WDT if you like ,at cost of a bit extra cost of code memory.

      before we can talk about timer just let me tell you is simple variable that hold how many times TMR0 (hardware TIMER) is overflowed , and TMR0 is the register that hods count for hardware TIMER.
      hardware TIMER does overflow ~256us but timer variable never,it just stuck at highest value. timer variable increment at every overflow of timer.

      if you see this mathematically then this may look like, when lsb for a number get overflow carry goes to next higher significant digit. for decimal if lsb wanted to above 9 then it turn back to zero and carry out to higher significant digit.


      so when i add (timer <<8) + TMR0 this expression will produce total number of micro seconds . if you have 9ms of time then you will have 35 in timer variable and 40 in TMR0 register so to add them this is what you have to do
      (35*256)+40 = 9000us

      so i believe that if the 9ms leading pulse is between 8ms to 11ms (tdiff>8032) and (tdiff<11044)

      <<8 operation is same as *256

      <<8 operation is required to get the timer value up to its significant.
      you never add 32000 +40 = 72 (wrong)
      you always add every digit to same significant digit.


      yes TIMER does over flow at ~ 256us and at every 256us it increment variable

      i still did't understand few for your words properly but still i will try to explain a bit

      "At that case timer count would be 4+TMR0 (0) and 8+TMR0 (1).

      tdiff = ((timer<<8)+TMR0); At this step the tdiff value for 0 is 1024+TMR0 and for 1 is 2048+TMR0. "

      if timer variable have 4 and TMR0 is 0

      4+TMR0 means =( 4*256 )+0 = 1024 us
      8+TMR0 means = (8*256) +1 = 2049 us

      i am not angry , don't worry i just get too stright some times. sorry for that

  32. Thanks a lot Mr Gaurav, You took plenty of time to reply. But sorry to say, my doubt is not clarified. I hope mistake is mine, i am not conveying proper. Let me clearly ask you again..

    Interrupt begins now. IR Receiver TSOP1738 is active low.
    **9ms pulse has come,So INT pin goes low, Falling Edge Triggered "INT"
    Timer count is 35, So (35*256)+40 = 9000us
    if condition "" (tdiff>8032) and (tdiff<11044) "" True

    ** After 9ms, 4.5 ms Space, At the end of 4.5ms space,The Next falling Edge happens we are starting to receive 0's and 1's for 32 times

    **1.125 ms for both pulse and space for Logic 0
    Timer count is 4, So (4*256)+101 = 1125us
    if condition "" (tdiff>8032) and (tdiff<11044) "" Fails here..

    Same for Logic 1
    **2.25 ms for both pulse and space for Logic 1
    Timer count is 8, So (8*256)+202 = 2250us
    if condition "" (tdiff>8032) and (tdiff<11044) "" Fails here..

    once it fails, it may not receive the command and address because, The following code present inside the if loop discussed above.
    *************************************************************************
    if(tdiff>1250)
    {
    rxbuffer = rxbuffer | 0x1;
    }
    else
    {
    rxbuffer = rxbuffer |0x0;
    }
    ************************************************************************
    Hope this time i conveyed my doubt clearly. Again thanks for your valuable time.

    1. as i said before please pay little attention
      its not if (tdiff>8032) and (tdiff<11044)
      its if ((tdiff>PREPULSE) && (tdiff<TIMEOUT) )

      PREPULSE and TIMEOUT variable get updated as per that state of the machine.

      are you aware of programming? of any kind.

    1. yeah you need to do something to detect repeat pulses. i have't implemented it , for this sort of application you can get away without implementing it. there are various ways to do it.

  41. In 2007 I build a similar project. I suggest to you to use an ULN2003 instead of resistor+bjt+diode. I wrote the code entirely in assembler. Feel free to take a look at my project.

  42. hi,
    nice project,

    i want the same project using 8051 or 8052 mcu (eg: p89v51rd2 or 89c51), using c language.
    please send me, my email is: regs1613@gmail.com

  43. Hi,
    i want to replace existing keypad from my digital clock to nec remote. My question is that whether i have to add the decoding code with my current program or use a decoder ic and connect it to my PIC ?. which one is better, because the decoding is complicated since it deals with usec and msec, also i am using timer interrupt to display in 7 seg display so there is a chance of missing reception interrupt.

    please reply,

    thanks and regards
    Nikhil.

  44. i am comming with the same problem as hades. while compiling it is showing :-
    undefined identifier "INTCONbits" etc.
    can you please suggest which verson of MPLAB & HI tech compiler u are using. aslo i cross varify the header files etc all seems to be correct. i have selected pic12f675.
    please help.

  47. Hi Gaurauv, I'd like to use two output pins for driving a little DC motor, pressing one button it turns clockwise, pressing another button it turns counterclockwise. I develop a simple circuit with 4 PN2222 transistor and some resistors and diodes. how can i modify your C-code to get ON state just on pressing one button? I tried something like:
    case 0x50: RELAY1 = 0;
    RELAY2 = 0;
    RELAY3 = 0;
    RELAY4 = 0;
    RELAY1 = 1; //on relay 1
    RELAY1 = 1; //on relay 1
    RELAY1 = 0;

    and so on but it doesn't work.
    Please, Can you suggest me something else?

    ReplyDelete
  48. Hi Gaurauv, I studied much more your code. Compliments for comments and for all your work, WELL DONE!!
    I understand that i didn't need to save GPIO output state in internal eprom so i commented that lines when "dataready" is 1 i disable interrupt, turn on the right relay (switch-case), delay (__delay_ms) for 400ms and re-enable interrupt. I added "else" (on dataready=0) to set all RELAY*=0 but i can't get it working well!
    May you suggest me something more?
    Thanks in advance and best regards

  50. hello nice project, and 'can do with a change in the code to store the state of the relay even when you switch off the circuit? so as to get back the same state to its restart. thanks GianniUndo editsIs this translation better than the original?Yes, submit translationThank you for your submission.

    1. The state has already saved in internal eprom at every "change"

  51. Hi Gaurauv, I spent more times on code analisys. The receiver dosen't manage "repeatcode" of NEC IR protocol, while the transmitter does it. May you help me on "repeatecode" managing? So I'll able to keep GPIO ON state when repeatcode received. Thanks in advance and best regards.

    1. for receiver side i did't implemented repeat code because , for this particular application ( latching type control) we don't need one. but if you are willing to use this code for momentary ON type control then you need have significance of the repeat code.

I have to modify the routine "void interruptOnChangeIsr(void)" but I don't understand completly the code, May you suggest me something more? Maybe it's something about necpoj variable, how can i check when repeat code is receive? Thanks in advance

    4. Hi Gaurav, I studied much more your code and I understand it completely. Now I tried to recompile the source code and write it in PIC12F675 but it doesn't work. If I use the original compiled HEX file everything is OK, but with compiled mine NOT.
      Is there any issue on compiling? Should I set something in MPLAB IDE or Hi.Tech C compiler? Thanks in advance and best regards.

    5. usually there is no need to set any thing it should compile directly out of the box.

      but still you may try to create a new MPLAB project and add only main.c file into your newly created project and see what happens.

      if it still did't work then show me your compilation log , i will find a solution for you

    9. Build seems to be okey,
      may be any of these reasons could be the issue.
      1. if the status led is blinking when you hit the button then may be ,you are sending the IR command which is not compatible, or the remote you are using is not NEC protocol.
      2. any of the component is faulty. try to change the PIC and IR sensor too.
      3. the PIC is using internal oscillator as clock source may be the osccal values got very rong thats why micro did't even started. this happen in PIC12 devices a lot . so try to run a simple blink led and see if it works fine.
      4. power supply could also be issue.

    11. Hi Gaurav, thank you very much for your reply. If I use your original .hex file everything work fine! I tested just two push button on your remote control and with original hex (compiled) I turn on and off two leds on pin 6 and 7 on reveciver side. So I think hardware is ok, what about you?
      I've already tried with three different PICs and the status led always blink on receiving signal.
      I'm quite sure on code developed by me for repeat code but it doesn't work cause issue on original latched function. It works perfectly with original .hex but doesn't work with compiled code... very strange!

  66. Hi Gaurav,
    Thanks you for publishing this project. It was a really great fantastic experience. I now know a lot more about dealing with bit oriented protocols on the PIC.

    I ported your code over to a PIC 16F690 as it is now part of a stepper motor controller for a camera slider that I am building. I used a el-cheap0 $2 Xinda remote control that a bought from ebay. It was NEC compatible, except used different code.

    I managed to work through the debugging ok. It really helped to use a 1602 A LCD and a few extra LED's as debugging tools. Using these, I was able to tell where the code was getting stuck etc. I got thee in the end!!!

    One thing that I did need to change was if(necpoj >66) to if(necpoj >67). I seemed to be getting one more interupt. Without doing this, my data ready flag was being reset before making it back to the main while loop.

    Thanks again for publishing your projects. Its way better than attending any training. I'm going to attempt some others! $ donation on payday.

    Thanks again.

Please try to understand the concept behind the ticks per ms, number of count the timer will have after 1 ms have passed, say if in your application your counter increment 1us then there will be 1000 count for each ms, it is not possible for me to tell you the calculation without actually knowing how exactly you are feeding the clock in to the main measurement timer,

  74. Dear Mr. Gaurav,
    Thanks for this nice project & and it is absolutely working fine.
    Instead of IR modulation I like to send these NEC codes through RF.
    For this, I understand that plain HEX code,w/o modulation, is required to come out of the
    Tx PIC 12F615 and so, no IR modulation frequency, 38KHz generation is required.
    I do not know whether it is possible that by disabling some instructions in your program, generation of 38KHz will be stopped & plain Hex codes as per the switch, comes out of Tx PIC.
    If possible kindly show me, if not I like to have your advice.
    Kindly note that I am totally new to programs & want to transmit NEC protocol only as I have learn it from your write-up.
    Regrds,

    Now, I am able to see LED flicker on key all press of remote but not getting any toggle of output pins.

  93. Problem is in your configuration. This algorithm relying on timer to measure Timing between IR pluses.so if clock goes wrong you will see led blink when IR signal received but packet will not be decoded.

    12F675 has only 4Mhz internal oscillator
    12F615 has 8Mhz, but you can divide this by 2, there is bit in config.

    Instead of having 0xF54 in config have 0xF14.

    Or change timer reference value

    ReplyDelete
  94. i tried with config as 0xf14 but did not get any change in output. i am getting continuous 5v at pin7(ralay1) and pin3(relay4) and 0v at (relay2 and relay3).

  95. Hi Mr.Gaurav,First of all thanks for this code.its Really helpful for beginners like us. I have a problem.
    The LED in GP5 blink when it receives signal from remote.But the LEDs in other ports are not responding as per the IR signal as expected. I understand that the commands are not getting decoded properly. When I programmed with your hex code which you shared , everything is working perfectly.
    I used your code and compiled in xc8 compiler and changed the configuration code to the following.
    // CONFIG
    #pragma config FOSC = INTRCIO // Oscillator Selection bits (INTOSC oscillator: I/O function on GP4/OSC2/CLKOUT pin, I/O function on GP5/OSC1/CLKIN)
    #pragma config WDTE = OFF // Watchdog Timer Enable bit (WDT disabled)
    #pragma config PWRTE = OFF // Power-Up Timer Enable bit (PWRT disabled)
    #pragma config MCLRE = OFF // GP3/MCLR pin function select (GP3/MCLR pin function is digital I/O, MCLR internally tied to VDD)
    #pragma config BOREN = ON // Brown-out Detect Enable bit (BOD enabled)
    #pragma config CP = OFF // Code Protection bit (Program Memory code protection is disabled)
    #pragma config CPD = OFF // Data Code Protection bit (Data memory code protection is disabled)

    // #pragma config statements should precede project file includes.
    // Use project enums instead of #define for ON and OFF.

    #include


    Still no response as expected when IR signal is received. What other change shall I do in your code to make it compatible with XC8 complier? with these changes, the code is anyway getting BUILT successfully.But when programmed, the LEDs are not responding as per the IR signal. only LED in GP5 blinks when ever signal is received.

    1. From where did you get source from github or zip file?

      If led blinks then mcu is working may IR code are not same.
      Or may be OSCCAL register is invalid. Many people have reported issue with OSCCAL register calibration lost

  105. Very Very Thanks for your reply,
    Dear I tried both codes GitHub and zip files, I used mp3 nec remote which is working fine with your given hex files,I used "hi tech c" lite, I am week in softwares,I humble request you please explain how to set OSCCAL register

  106. Dear friend I solve the problem with your help,this problen is appears due to "Hi tech c" lite mode,when I used "Pro version of Hi tech c" then problem solved, and then i made some changes like all relays with stand by switches and all relays on with resume (play) switch,
    Thanks brother,
    dear I request you please reply the maximum queries because maximums are learn from websites like your website,
    Again Thanks

  107. Hi Gaurav Sir,
    When I was trying to simulate using IRLINK in Proteus, the o/p of 12f675 start ON after power ON and any botton from remote not operating the o/p or 12f675 still keeping ON.

    I used also your hex file but no improved found..

    It may be 'The problem with your simulation could be associated with clock frequency of receiver or transmitter' as u said.

    How do i fix the clock frequency?
    Is there any process other than Proteus to simulate it??
    I am very happy for ur project and more happy once it operate.
    ..

    Tnx.

  109. Tnx Jain, But Gourav sir can only said how it will work, frq need to be changed to work it on proteus. Might have there may be any process to simulate other than proteus
    We request Gaurav sir please let us know the fact and will there be any process to simulate software??
    tnx
