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.

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.

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)
