What's the best way to output 30 to 40 kHz from a 12F683 pin?

HPWM limit is as stated in your manual. To reach higher frequency, you need to write the PWM register manually. Use PICMultiCalc to find PR2 and Timer Prescaller value, then plug the DutyCycle values in CCP1CON and CCPR1L registers... double check your datasheet to confirm.

T2CON = %00000100
CCP1CON = %00001100
CCPR1L = 50
PR2 = x
@8MHz, x=
56 for +/- 34kHz
54 for +/- 36kHz
52 for +/- 38kHz
48 for +/- 40kHz
46 for +/- 42kHz

Frequencies shown here are not 100% accurate but for most IR receivers, they'll work well.

Thanks for the quick responses -

I'll try the values you gave me out in the morning (I'm a teacher) at school. mister_e the URL you posted didn't work (it has an ellipsis ... in it). If possible I'd like to get that calculator since we're hoping to scale this up to use up to 8 different transmitter/receiver pair, though I anticipate having to do substantial filtering/additional encoding. But that's for another day...

Thanks again - Fiz

BTW mister_e I live just over the border in VT.

Found it on another post. Thanks a ton or is it tonne?

ton or tonne... both are the same to me
