• Description: KEELOQ CODE HOPPING ENCODER
• Manufacturer: Microchip Technology

Any type of controller may be used as a receiver, but it
is typically a microcontroller with compatible firmware
that allows the receiver to operate in conjunction with a
transmitter, based on the HCS360. Section 7.0
provides more detail on integrating the HCS360 into a
total system.
Before a transmitter can be used with a particular
receiver, the transmitter must be ‘learned’ by the
receiver. Upon learning a transmitter, information is

transmitter, the current synchronization value for that
transmitter and the same encryption key that is used on
the transmitter. If a receiver receives a message of valid
format, the serial number is checked and, if it is from a
learned transmitter, the message is decrypted and the
decrypted synchronization counter is checked against
what is stored. If the synchronization value is verified,
then the button status is checked to see what operation
is needed. Figure 1-3 shows the relationship between
some of the values stored by the receiver and the val-
ues received from the transmitter.
