IR sensor suitable for PIC18f26k22 and RC5 protocol

[vicky001.iith]

Hello,
I am developing a device which can be control using a remote and a PIC18f26k22 micro controller. I want to use RC5 protocol for communication. Any suitable IR sensor for this.I thought of using TSOP1736. Is TSOP1736 best ??Any suggestions ??

Hi,
You can use TSOP1736. Below link shows the sample code for RC5 protocol using PIC controller.
