General Description
The 212 decoders are a series of CMOS LSIs for remote
control system applications. They are paired with
Holtek¢s 212 series of encoders (refer to the encoder/de-
coder cross reference table). For proper operation, a
pair of encoder/decoder with the same number of ad-
dresses and data format should be chosen.
The decoders receive serial addresses and data from a
programmed 212 series of encoders that are transmitted
by a carrier using an RF or an IR transmission medium.
They compare the serial input data three times continu-
ously with their local addresses. If no error or un-
matched codes are found, the input data codes are
decoded and then transferred to the output pins. The VT
pin also goes high to indicate a valid transmission.
The 212 series of decoders are capable of decoding
informations that consist of N bits of address and 12-N
bits of data. Of this series, the HT12D is arranged to pro-
vide 8 address bits and 4 data bits, and HT12F is used to
decode 12 bits of address information.
