 | | IR (formally 6.8nF cap) —John Hatton
|
| | | I have asked for confirmation as to which frequency (38 or 40 KHz) is correct. As my current components should give me a frequency of 39KHz (1/3.883KOhm*6.6nF) I should be able to use either with out to much problem. I am thinking of using the (...)

| | | | there's not really a big diff in the performance of the ir sensors given 38 or 40 khz. so either is fine, +/- a few khz just doesn't really matter, you have to detune 10 khz or so for it to matter. there is an issue whereby there are two different (...)

| | | | So as the 39KHz value would be ok for either the IS1U60 (38KHz) or the hacked sensors (40KHz), will my idea for the hacked IR sensor distance measurement using the IR output circuitry to drive multiple LEDs also be valid ?. Thanks for the help. John (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

|
| | | | yes, a variance of 1 kHz in the carrier frequency makes no difference at all to these sensors. f. In your message you said: (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
