The Great Search: Wide band "Code Learning" Infrared Receiver
A year ago we designed a high-current-output Infrared Transmitter STEMMA (https://www.adafruit.com/product/5639) and had to find a high brightness right angle LED. (https://blog.adafruit.com/2022/10/18/the-great-search-bright-side-emitting-infrared-smt-led-thegreatsearch-digikey-digikey-adafruit/) Today we sat down to design the other side, a receiver. We did find a 38KHz receiver that will work, but it got us thinking about 'code learning' IR projects, (https://learn.adafruit.com/building-an-infrared-transmitter-and-receiver-board) where we don't want to demodulate out the 38KHz or whatever…
