Need help building a simple IR learning remote with a PIC

[dhouston]

I was up working on this all night

That's a shame. I can analyze any CCF code in a minute or two, including a graph of the code. A graph of the ON code is attached.

What PIC do you plan to use? It's easy to get higher frequencies using hardware PWM. I do it with a PIC12F683 but you'll probably want more pins. There's an example program on the Reynolds Electronics website. Here's some test code that generates ~120kHz.

DEFINE OSC 8
@ DEVICE PIC12F683, INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT
@ DEVICE PIC12F683, MCLR_OFF

TRISIO.2 = 0				'GPIO.2=Output
PR2 = 17			        'PWM Period   117.7kHz
CCPR1L = 8				'PWM Duty-Cycle  
'CCP1CON = %00001100  			'PWM Mode
T2CON = %00000100    			'Timer2=ON, 1:1 prescale
OSCCON = %01110001                      'INT HF OSC 8MHz
WHILE OSCCON.3>0: WEND                  'OSC startup timeout
WHILE OSCCON.2=0: WEND                  'INT HF OSC stable
'CCP1CON = 0 'PWM module off
WHILE OSCCON.2>0 
  CCP1CON = %00001100 'PWM ON
  PauseUS 1000        'generate 1ms burst 
  CCP1CON = 0         'PWM OFF
  Low GPIO.2
  Pause 10            'pause 10ms
WEND

I get somewhat different values.

• Carrier=38740
  Lead-in=4.259ms ON, 3.872ms OFF
  1-bit=1.187ms ON, 6.557ms OFF
  0-bit=3.665ms ON, 3.872ms OFF
  Lead-out=11.616ms ON, 92.928ms OFF

If all codes use the same lead-in & lead-out, the binary codes are 1100 0001 11 and 1101 0001 01 for OFF & ON respectively.
