10 The photodiode is an OSRAM BP104, the IR LED a generic IR LED from Jaycar
|
|
11 (ZD1947) with a spectral peak of 940nm. The opamp is an LM348 clone (ZL3348 from Jaycar).

21 The need to invert could be rectified by modifying the circuit, but modifying the
|
|
22 EEPROM was a lot easier than changing the circuit.
