Infrared remote control clone utility

IR Clone is an open-source IR remote control analyzer tool. This utility can analyze any IR remote control that modulates the IR signal with a 38kHz carrier signal. This utility has an option to store and retrieve up to 16 IR signals. In addition, it has PC software to analyze and edit captured IR signals. The hardware component of this analyzer is built around the STM8S003F3 MCU. It has 24LC32 EEPROM installed to store the captured IR signals. This unit is designed to operate with a 5V to 9V DC power source or a 3V battery.  Finished prototype of the IR Clone module Operating modes such as capture or replay can be changed using an onboard jumper on the PCB. These operating modes can change at any time without restarting the unit. In addition to the IR clone PCB, the only external component needed to operate this system is a 4×4 matrix keypad . Most of the generally available 4×4 keypads can directly couple with this system. The dimensions of the IR Clone PCB are 41.2mm × 32.1mm, a
