Ir receiver configuration

I want to use multiple ir recievers to capture ir input from multiple locations.

Would it work if I connect multiple ir recievers together at the pins. Essentially "bridge" them together/parallel. I would like to use only 1 pwm pin for 2 recievers

Yes, but if two signals are received at the same time, both will be unreadable.

You do not need to use a PWM pin, there is no advantage to that.

Thats okay if 2 signals come in at same time I will only be using 1 remote and ir won't be able to interfere . Thankyou

I would really like to connect the ir reciever through an i2c device. Though I'm not sure it could work. I currently have pcf8591 and pcf8574.

Is there a way to use either of those chips to read the ir reciever?

No, I don't think so.

Why do you want to do that?
