OK - I am getting myself lost here.
My TSOP136 IR Receiver is pulsing like this
1 pulse
2 pulses
1 pulse
2 pulses
and sometimes
1 pulse
1 pulse
2 pulses
Now the RED LED is pulsing just one per second. So that should be
1 pulse
1 pulse
1 pulse
etc
a Red LED is around the 650 nm wave length and the IR Receiver I assume since it is IR is more like 875 or so. It is oviously pickin up the flash but maybe in this case it is too smart since it says in the docs
"PIN Diode, pre-amplifier, AGC, pass Filter and demodulator"
Would I be better off with a LDR feeding into a Schmitt Trigger?
I went out and bought the wrong schmitt IC today at the local JAYCAR - I ended up buying a 4093 QUAD 2-INPUT NAND SCHMITT TRIGGER CMOS IC instead of 74C14 HEX SCHMITT TRIGGER CMOS IC
Do you think the lack of a Schmitt Trigger could be causing this double counting sometimes?
