For months I’ve been looking for a simple FM
BUG project, the ones online require inductors which you either have to
acquire or build, if you don’t have a LCR meter it becomes rather hard
to get the circuit working, specially if you’re a beginner without an
oscilloscope! – Sometimes they don’t even tell you which inductance is
required and you have to calculate an estimate, which is the main reason
why many high frequency RF projects fail in the first place. This
circuit on the other hand performs pretty well, even if you’re
manipulating the board or touching the coax it will stay within the
tuned frequency (unless you touch the transistor or timing capacitor!).

The objective of this 3V FM Transmitter
design is to provide a simple low-power transmitter solution for
broadcasting audio from various audio sources. This transmitter
transmits audio using small sensitive microphone. Transmitter's
frequency, as built is tunable via 15pF trimmer to the desired
frequency, and the coil is embedded on the circuit board. This
implementation is adapted to rebroadcast the output of a CD player,
television receiver, or radio receiver. I use this transmitter so that I
can move about the house and listen to my favorite programs without
disturbing others. Within and the house, I find that I can get 50 to 100
meters away from the transmitter with the small pocket FM receiver I
carry in my shirt pocket.

This little broadcast FM transmitter has
500mW of RF output power and runs of 12-15V battery or power supply. DC
whose signal modulated by FM using four transistors. Transmitter
includes four transmitter stages and draws around 100-150mA of current.
Using the values of the circuit components, the frequency will be around
100 MHz but can be changed via coil. Through the 5 pF capacitor and 10K
ohm resistor, the modulation of audio signal is supplied to the tank
circuit. The amount of modulation is being managed by the 1N4002, a
general purpose rectifier diode. FM Transmitter's output stage is
functioning as a class D amplifier where the output transistors act as a
switch.

There are many miniature FM transmitter bug
circuits online, this one is unique in that it runs completely on solar
power. No battery is required. As long as the sun is shining on the PV
panel, the transmitter will transmit. The transmitter bug is useful as a
"remote ear", and can be used for anything from listening birds to
surveillance work. The mic preamp and oscillator circuits were borrowed
from a common circuit found around the Internet, a regulated solar power
supply and an RF amp that extends the range of transmitter and improves
frequency stability were added.

Build your own simple mini FM transmitter.
This fun project will show you how to build a mini broadcasting
transmitter that can transmit an audio signal up to a quarter mile to
any FM receiver. It's easy to build and a good learning experience. It
serves as a hands-on learning tool for students or anybody interested in
electronics. Having a range of up to a quarter mile, it's great for a
house security system, baby monitoring device or simply a listening
gadget that you can place anywhere!

The power output of many transmitter
circuits are very low because no power amplifier stages are
incorporated. The transmitter circuit described here has an extra RF
power amplifier stage using 2N3866 RF power transistor after the
oscillator stage to increase output power to 250 milliwatts. With a good
matching 50-ohm ground plane antenna or multi-element Yagi antenna,
this transmitter can provide reasonably good signal strength up to a
distance of about 2 kilometers. Transmitter's oscillator is built around
BF494 transistor T1. It is a basic low-power variable-frequency VHF
oscillator. A varicap diode circuit is included to tune the frequency of
the transmitter and to provide frequency modulation by audio signals.
The output of the oscillator is about 50 milliwatts. 2N3866 transistor
T2 forms a VHF-class A power amplifier. It boosts the oscillator signal
power four to five times. Thus 250mW of power is generated at the
collector of transistor T2.

Presented FM transmitter bug is built using
BF414 / BF324 / BF606 transistor. The 30cm antenna has a range of about
30m in the building, more in the open field. Power supply 2x AAA
batteries have been used with voltage of 2.75 V. I added resistor 10K in
parallel with 1.5pF capacitor so that the system works well when
connected to an external source (mp3 player / computer). On the computer
I had to reduce sound to about 35% of capacity, so that I do not have
clipping. I managed to improve transmitter stability with simple
shielding. The coil is 5 turns of enameled copper wire wound on 1 mm ø =
5 mm.

BA1404 transmitter includes onboard RF
amplifier for increased transmitting range. Operating voltage range is
1-3V, the circuit contains FM stereo mixer, 38KHZ oscillator, FM
modulator and high-frequency amplifier monolithic integrated circuit. As
the "electronic newspaper" BBS there are many users requiring detailed
information on the FM stereo transmitter, so I re-collect the relevant
information on the simple discrete, merge, integrated FM stereo
transmitter experiment, that BA1404 with μpc1651 mix of the most easy to
make and debug, and very high frequency stability (relative to the
previous circuit BA1404), transmission power is increased by UPC1651RF

Here is a simple USB FM transmitter that
could be used to play audio files from an MP3 player or computer on a
standard VHF FM radio by connecting it to an USB port. The circuit use
no coils that have to be wound. This USB transmitter can be used to
listen to your own music throughout your home. To keep the fm
transmitter circuit simple as well as compact, it was decided to use a
chip made by Maxim Integrated Products, the MAX2606. This IC from the
MAX2605-MAX2609 series has been specifically designed for low-noise RF
applications with a fixed frequency. The VCO (Voltage Controlled
Oscillator) in this IC uses a Colpitts oscillator circuit. The
variable-capacitance (varicap) diode and feedback capacitors for the
tuning have also been integrated on this chip, so that you only need an
external inductor to fix the central oscillator frequency.

This easy to build FM transmitter bug can
transmit voice to exceptionally good range. Tune trimmer to hear the
signal to your near radio. Transmitter frequency range is 88-108 MHz.
Max current consumption is 30mA. You can power the fm transmitter bug
with a 9Volt Battery, or you can plug a power supply to feed in 9-12
Volts. That bug will pick even a low whisper or even the sound of a
breath well far from the microphone. Great spy transmitter equipment.

After building FM transmitter I decided to
build a 6W RF Transmitter amplifier for the FM band to get more power
and we chose to copy a 6 Watt design built around 2SC1971 RF power
transistor. We were not satisfied with finished result and decided to
replace the fixed capacitors around the pcb inductors with variable
capacitors, this is much better and possible to tune to your transmitter
frequency.

The 1 watt 20 meter QRP transmitter with
VXO. This is a nice QRP transmitter that can be used in combination of
one of the simple receivers.
Normally these designs have only two transistors: one is the X-tal
oscillator and the second the final amplifier. A good example is my
first QRP rig that is also described somewhere on this site. Here the
VXO (Variabele X-tal Oscillator) has a tuning range of 16 kHz. This VXO
is buffered with an extra driver stage for a better frequency stability
and a varicap diode is used instead of a variabele capacitor. An extra
transistor is added for keying the transmitter with a low keying
current.
What you can do with such a simple 1 watt QRP power transmitter.
This is a real low power transmitter, so do not expect that you can do
everything with it but...
When conditions are normal, you can easily make many QSO's during one
afternoon with stations with distances upto 2000 km with a simple
inverted V wire dipole antenna! From Europe, I did even make QSO's
across the Ocean!

This PLL transmitter is controlled and the
frequency is very stable and can be programmed digitally. Transmitter
will work 88-108 MHz and output power up to 500mW. With a small change
can set the frequency of 50-150 MHz. The output power is often set to
several watts with transistors. So therefore I decided to build a simple
transmitter with great performances. The frequency of this transmitter
can easily be changed by software and space / compress air coil. This
transmitter is the oscillator colpitts. Oscillator is a VCO (voltage
controlled oscillator) which is set by the PLL circuit and PIC micro
controller. This oscillator is called the Colpitts oscillator and
voltage controlled to achieve the FM (frequency modulation) and PLL
control.

This is the schematic for an FM transmitter
with 3 to 3.5 W output power that can be used between 90 and 110 MHz.
Stability of this transmitter is not bad and PLL circuit can be added
on.
This is a circuit that I've build a few years ago for a friend, who used
it in combination with the BLY88 amplifier to obtain 20 W output power.
From the notes that I made at the original schematic, it worked fine
with a SWR of 1 : 1.05 (quite normal at my place with my antenna).

A simple 200mW FM Transmitter circuit which
covers frequencies from 88 to 108 MHz. It is built with 3 transistors:
BC109, BFR91A and BFR96S. It is quite stable and the output power is
around 200mW.
The first stage of transmitter is a mic amplifier but if you connect
this radio transmitter directly to an audio source you can remove this
stage and connect the audio signal to R5.
U1, 1PH51C can be replaced with LM7805. You must use a stabilized power
source for oscillator stage to prevent frequency variation. You can
remove C7 and use a linear potentiometer instead of R6 with the median
connector to C4, one pin to ground and the other one to +. FM
Transmitter uses MV2109 varicap diode and C7 for frequency tuning.

The RF oscillator using the inverter N2 and
10.7Mhz ceramic filter is driving the parallel combination of N4 to N6
through N3.Since these inverters are in parallel the output impedance
will be low so that it can directly drive an aerial of 1/4th wavelength.
Since the output of N4-N6 is square wave there will be a lot of
harmonics in it. The 9th harmonics of 10.7Mhz (96.3Mhz) will hence be at
the center of the FM band. N1 is working as an audio amplifier. The
audio signals from the microphone are amplified and fed to the varicap
diode. The signal varies the capacitance of the varicap and hence varies
the oscillator frequency which produce Frequency Modulation.

With this circuit you can build a very small
tracking transmitter that can be tracked using a FM broadcast band
radio receiver. The transmitter can be powered from any 1.5V volt
battery or power supply. Transmitter has a range up to 1 mile depending
on battery voltage, height above ground, receiver sensitivity, and
antenna length. Under certain conditions distances of 1 mile have been
achieved. It is recommended that this transmitter be used with FM radios
that can tune continuously across the dial. The better the receiver and
receiver antenna system the greater the practical range of the
transmitter, however good functionality can be achieved with the least
expensive radios and using only the standard telescoping antenna
included with most radios.

power is sufficient for reliable reception of its signal within a few
tens of meters. The basis of the device is a chip BH1417F, included in a

Here's a long range 300mW FM Transmitter for
the 88MHz to 108MHz band. This particular TX is of special interest to
those wishing to build low power Power Amplifiers for the VHF bands
since it used impedance matching, power amplifier and antenna filtering,
all of which should be used by radio constructors, whether it be for
amateur radio or any other form of radio. The features of this project
are: Higher output power - 150mW min (at 9v) and 300mW+ (at 12.5v). Very
pure output signal due to careful design and filtering. VARICAP
modulation - possibility to add a synthesizer. Single sided Printed
Circuit Board, only 40mm x 72mm. Covers the domestic FM band - 88MHz to
108MHz. Easy to build, but coil winding experience IS required

The objective of this 1.5V FM Broadcast
Transmitter design is to provide a simple low-power transmitter solution
for broadcasting audio from various audio sources. This transmitter
accepts stereo input via two 470K resistors. Since there is no audio
level control on the input, the audio level out from the source needs to
be adjusted. Or, you can just add a 10k as an input level control.
Transmitter's frequency, as built is tunable via spreading or
compressing the coil to the desired frequency, and the coil can be glued
down. If you want to make one that's tunable, it might be easiest to
reduce the 18 pf capacitor and put a small trimmer capacitor in parallel
with the inductor (across the reduced value capacitor). Voltage
variable capacitors would be an nice alternative to a mechanical
variable capacitor but they don't offer much tuning range with only a
1.5V power supply.

This FM Broadcast Transmitter circuit will
transmit a continuous audio tone on the FM broadcast band (88-108 MHz)
which could used for remote control or security purposes. Circuit draws
about 30 mA from a 6-9 volt battery and can be received to about 100
yards. A 555 timer is used to produce the tone (about 600 Hz) which
frequency modulates a Hartley oscillator. A second JFET transistor
buffer stage is used to isolate the oscillator from the antenna so that
the antenna position and length has less effect on the frequency. Fine
frequency adjustment can be made by adjusting the 200 ohm resistor in
series with the battery. Oscillator frequency is set by a 5 turn tapped
inductor and 13 pF capacitor.

Here is a very simple telephone broadcaster
transmitter which can be used to eavesdrop on a telephone conversation.
The circuit can also be used as a wireless telephone amplifier.
One important feature of this phone transmitter is that the circuit
derives its power directly from the active telephone lines, and thus
avoids use of any external battery or other power supplies.

In this project, you will make a simple
3-stage low-power broadcast-type circuit, using a crystal oscillator
integrated circuit and an a collector modulated AM oscillator with
amplifier. You can connect the circuit to the an electred microphone or
amplified dynamic microphone. Using an electred microphone is shown (in
gray) in the diagram below. (no amplified dynamic microphone has a to
low output voltage to work. at least 100mv is needed). You could also
add a LF preamp stage of one transistor to allow connecting a dynamic
microphone directly.
You'll see that you can receive the signal through the air with almost
any AM radio receiver. Although the circuits used in radio stations for
AM receiving are far more complicated, this nevertheless gives a basic
idea of the concept behind a principle transmitter. Plus it is a lot of
fun when you actually have it working!
Remember that transmitting on the 10 meter band you'll need a valid
radioamateur license!!
A wide range of different circuits have been used for AM, but one of the
simplest circuits uses collector modulation applied via (for example) a
transformer, while it is perfectly possible to create good designs
using solid-state electronics as I applied here (T1 BC557).
The transmitter is build as a Colpitts Oscillator with a BSX20
transistor. HF-output of the oscillator is approx. 50 mW, depending on
the supply voltage of 6 to 15 Volts. This is amplified by the BD135 and
brings the power up to approx. 1 watt @ 12volts. The transmit frequency
is stabilized with the 28Mhz crystal. A slight detuning of approx 1kc is
possible when using a 120pF trimmer capacitor for C8. The oscillator
signal is taken from the collector of T2 and guided to the input of T3
which output is lead via an L-filter and low-pass PII filter circuit
cleaning up the signal pretty good and ensuring spectral purity. The
oscillator is keyed by T1 and the morse key (S). By keying the morse-key
T1 is not been used for modulation and is biased, hence lets T2 freely
oscillate.

receiver. It has a range of up to 1/4 of a mile or more. It is great for
room monitoring, baby listening, nature research, etc. L1 is 8 to 10
turns of 22 gauge hookup wire close wound around a non-conductive 1/4
inch diameter form, such as a pencil. C4 is a small, screw-adjustable,
trimmer capacitor. Set your FM receiver for a clear, blank space in the
lower end of the band. Then, with a non-conductive tool, adjust this
capacitor for the clearest reception. A little experimenting and
patience may be in order. Most of the parts' values are not critical, so
you can try adjusting them to see what happens.

If you want to be independent of the local
radio stations for testing VHF receivers, you need a frequency-modulated
oscillator that covers the range of 89.5 to 108 MHz — but building such
an oscillator using discrete components is not that easy. Maxim now has
available a series of five integrated oscillator building blocks in the
MAX260x series which cover the frequency range between 45 and 650 MHz.
The only other thing you need is a suitable external coil, dimensioned
for the midrange frequency.

oscillator, followed by a buffer stage to prevent frequency variation
when you adjust the transmitter. Next is a resonance stage and the final

You must use a LM7805 stabilizer for the oscillator diodes and one
LM7809 for powering up the T1 oscillator stage. This will give you a

This is a very simple 5 watt CW TX based
upon a TTL logic chip. There is just one "tricky" component and this is
Cx. This component should have an impedance of about 10 - 50 ohms at the
frequency of interest. If you wish to reduce the transmitter power,
increase the value of Cx. It is Cx which causes the square wave from the
output transistor to approximate a sine waveform. The value of Cx is
the price of simplicity in this TX.

The transmitters on my homepage seem to be
quite popular, especially those intended for the 88 - 108MHz FM band. I
must really confess that I also favor this broadcast band, mainly
because it is so easy to find signals on the workshop radio. Everyone
has an FM radio, and it is fun to play with. Experimental antennas and
the like can all be developed in this band since there are a huge range
of "beacons" all transmitting just for my benefit :-). Basic oscillators
also are easy to fault-find in this frequency band, and then later
modified for other VHF bands.
The V5 FM Wireless Microphone is a 10mW transmitter that featured a coil
fabricated on the PCB itself. This made the project easy to duplicate
and removed "microphony" (the ability of coils to act as a microphone
with spring-line reverb). But as several people have already commented,
although more stable than most other similar kits and projects, the
frequency still does vary with battery voltage. In just one session it
can vary by 200kHz when a cheap "Mighty Atom" battery falls to 8 volts.

Presented here is a Long Range FM
Transmitter. This circuit is a super-sensitive, mini-powered FM
transmitter consisting of a RF (radio Frequency) oscillator section
interfaced with a high sensitivity, wide pass-band audio amplifier and
capacitance mike with a built-in FET (Field Effect Transistor) that
modulates the base of the RF oscillator transistor. Transistor Q1 forms a
relatively stable RF oscillator whose frequency and is determined by
the value of coil L1 and turning capacitor C4.

This is a 6m band transmitter RF power
amplifier (50 MHz) with 100W output. It used with my FT-736R and drive
from 10W for the 6m SSB DX. The Building information comes from Japan CQ
Magazine. The Toshiba RF bipolar power transistor is used in it.
If you want to construct this rf amplifier, it's the better way if the
double side PCB use for increase the grounding and current transfer. The
TX power can be tune to 120W.

A transmitter is an installation in which electrical oscillations are
generated by an antenna as radio waves are emitted.Although there are a
variety of channels exist in terms of size, application and frequency,
each transmitter is an oscillator is present (usually crystal

strengthening of the modulated signal to the power required to
reach.Modulation can also occur at high power, when the carrier signal

Most transmitter has several variable
capacitors which are used to match impedance for transistors and
antennas. I know people hate trimmers and so did I. The reason is that
it is difficult to trim a system if you can't measure the performances.
To trim a transmitter you need to measure the output power.
Most transmitter are tuned with a dummy load of 50 ohm to substitute an
antenna of 50 ohm.
Not everyone has a power meter, and how can you know that the antenna
you connect is purely 50 ohm.
If not, the hole trimming is waste of time!
What you would like to do is to measure the radiated power out from the
antenna you actually are going to use.
If you can measure the radiated energy field you can easy tune the
system for max output field strength (max power).
So, how can we measure the radiated energy field?
The block diagram at right show you one easy way to measure the RF filed
strength. To the left you find a dipole antenna.
The antenna should be cut to match the receiving frequency ...

This is 80W RF power amplifier that boosts
FM Transmitter's power using 2SC2782 bipolar transistors in a tuned
class C circuit. RF amplifier can be driven to full 80W power with less
than 1 watt driving input power, so that a large gain margin results in
this FM transmitter.
To obtain stability in this RF amplifier, I employed several techniques,
such as placing the resonances of base and collector chokes far apart,
damping the chokes with resistors, using RC combinations for absorption
of unwanted frequencies, using feed trough capacitors for bypassing on
the board, etc. It took some tweaking, but the amplifier ended up
unconditionally stable.

Here's how to build a simple FM Transmitter.
This tiny transmitter has smaller radius of the service area, lower
quality of the sounds and the relatively unstable frequency. These can
be considered as a compromise to easily have your own transmitter for
the time being or as a more positive choice. These "defects" are only
from the perspective of conventional transmission such as "clear stereo
sound to receive anywhere". Artist could change these to another
directions. Whether or not, you can experience a convivial wireless
imagination by this transmitter.

This micro spy PLL FM Transmitter transmits
on the 160MHz frequency (if we use a 40MHz quartz) and therefore can be
listened through a receiver tuned on this frequency. This circuit can be
used to on various frequencies, for example on the FM band 88-108 just
modifying some components, among which the quartz (25MHz).
Voice is detected by an electret microphone, then it is amplified and
filtered by U1 pass-band in order then to be modulated from the carrier
section, where through the varicap diode it "mixes" with the frequency
generated by the quartz, that guarantees an adapted stability.
Practically the modulating voltage is obtained applying the audio signal
to the resonating circuit varicap diode that determines the carrier
oscillation. The carrier frequency (160 MHz) must be greater than the
modulating frequency (300-3300 Hz) audio band.
The transmission is on the fourth harmonic, therefore 160MHz, the
oscillation frequency of the driver RF transistor Q1.
A small calibration is allowed acting on the L1 inductance and the C1
Trimmer Capacitor.

Mini FM transmitters take place as one of
the standard circuit types in an amateur electronics fan's beginning
steps. When done right, they provide very clear wireless sound
transmission through an ordinary FM radio over a remarkable distance.
I've seen lots of designs through the years, some of them were so
simple, some of them were powerful, some of them were hard to build etc.
Here is the last step of this evolution, the most stable, smallest,
problem-less, and energy saving champion of this race. Circuit given
below will serve as a durable and versatile FM transmitter till you
break or crush it's PCB. Frequency is determined by a parallel L-C
resonance circuit and shifts very slow as battery drains out.

This is 8W PLL Stereo Transmitter with LCD.
It is a stable PLL FM transmitter based on TSA5511 synthesizer.
Frequency is performed with three buttons through PIC16F84
microcontroller. Frequency of the transmitter is displayed on 16x1 LCD.
Transmitter oscillator is based around BF981, BFR91, BFR96 transistors.
2SC1971 RF power transistor can be replaced with 2N4427 or 2N3553 but
they will provide less output power.

The power output of many transmitter
circuits are very low because no power amplifier stages are
incorporated. The transmitter circuit described here has an extra RF
power amplifier stage, after the oscillator stage, to raise the power
output to 200-250 milliwatts. With a good matching 50-ohm ground plane
antenna or multi-element Yagi antenna, this transmitter can provide
reasonably good signal strength up to a distance of about 2 kilometres.
The circuit built around transistor T1 (BF494) is a basic low-power
variable-frequency VHF oscillator. A varicap diode circuit is included
to change the frequency of the transmitter and to provide frequency
modulation by audio signals. The output of the oscillator is about 50
milliwatts. Transistor T2 (2N3866) forms a VHF-class A power amplifier.
It boosts the oscillator signal power four to five times. Thus, 200-250
milliwatts of power is generated at the collector of transistor T2.

This fm rf amplifier uses 2SC1971 transistor
to provide 5 watts of output. Output matching is adjusted via the two
40pF trimmer capacitors likewise also to the input. Note that the
emitter of this transistor is directly grounded on the heat sink and
should have a good thermal transfer. Driving power of 100 to 200mW can
be applied in order to provide 5watts of output. Use a dummy load to
tune this amplifier and remember that the transistor is biased in Class
C, sufficient filtering should be followed after the output to minimize
all the harmonics. Use ground plane construction technique in the PCB
lay-out for best result, the more the grounding the better. If you have
hard time finding the 10uH rf choke, try to wind 1/2 meter of 0.2mm
enamel wire over a 33K 1/2 watt resistor and solder the coil ends to
the legs of the resistor.

Presented here is a low-power FM transmitter
with varactor diode tuning using surface-mount devices (SMD) that will
be received with a standard FM radio. Soldering surface mounted devices
is not so hard and actually is quite easy. There are many designs for
small FM transmitters but they have some problems. First, you need an
audio amplifier to get enough modulation. Second, the antenna is
attached directly to the collector. Third, the coil L must be wound by
hand and adjusted by stretching. It all ads with a weak signal that
tends to drift in frequency. In contrast the transmitter schematic we
present here eliminates some of those problems, using varactor diode for
tuning and modulation, givin great sensitivity without an audio
amplifier.

This particular transmitter was later
shipped up to VY1JA in the Yukon where, thanks to Jay's excellent
antenna system, it was heard in Europe as well as in New Zealand during
one of the Trans-Pacific Tests! Running 24 volts on the final will
produce 100 watts into a 50 ohm load.
The transmitter utilizes a 4060 binary counter IC chip as both the
crystal oscillator and frequency divider. I used a 2200 kHz crystal
along with the 'divide-by' sixteen output to produce a signal at 137.5
kHz. Other combinations of crystal frequencies and 'divide-by'
combinations may also be used since the 4060 features divided outputs
for f/32 (pin 5) and f/64 (pin 4), among others. You may have a 4MHz
crystal or an 8MHz crystal in your junk box that will put you in the
band using these output pins.

This FM Wireless Microphone has been a very
popular project with beginners and experienced constructors alike. It
has been used inside guitars and as the basis of a remote control
system. I do however, receive many requests for a higher powered circuit
and better microphone sensitivity.
This High Power FM Wireless Microphone has a better frequency stability,
over 1 Km range and is good on microphone sensitivity. This has been
achieved by adding an RF amplifier buffer (with 10dB gain) and an AF
preamplifier to boost the modulation a little.

This FM transmitter design is a result of
many hours of testing and tweaking. The goal was simple; to test many
existing BA1404 transmitter designs, compare their performance, identify
weaknesses and come up with a new BA1404 transmitter design that
improves sound quality, has very good frequency stability, maximizes
transmitter's range, and is fairly simple for everyone to build. We are
happy to announce that this goal and expectations have been met and even
exceeded.
The transmitter can work from a single 1.5V cell battery and provide
excellent crystal clear stereo sound. It can also be supplied from two
1.5V battery cells to provide the maximum range.
One of the qualities of BA1404 FM transmitter is excellent frequency
stability. This is mainly due to a use of high quality 3.5 turn variable
coil. Tunable RF coils are ideal for precise frequency tuning because
their magnet wire is halfway embedded within the plastic, which
minimizes frequency drifts. Regular air coils are not preferred for
professional broadcasting because the coil expands and contracts with
temperature changes. That's the very reason why variable coil was chosen
as a substitution for an air coil and a variable capacitor.

This small power FM transmitter can transmit
more than 1 km in good conditions. The modulation can be made so much
with a microphone or audio source. Circuit of power fm transmitter is
built around 2n2218 transistor. Transmitter coil is 5 turns of enameled
22 AWG wire, with diameter of 1 cm without nucleus. Look at the
capacitors that it should be ceramic. The antenna should possess from 15
to 40 cm. For transmission it ties a receiver of FM (radio) in the
proximity to half volume in a free frequency (that there is not any
radio operating), with a wood or plastic key, rotate the screw of CV to
capture the frequency of the transmitter.

This implementation is adapted to
rebroadcast the output of a CD player, television receiver, or radio
receiver. I use it so that I can move about the house and listen to my
favorite programs without disturbing others. Within and the house, I
find that I can get 10 to 20 meters away from the transmitter with the
small pocket FM receiver I carry in my shirt pocket. Your mileage may
vary. The transmitter as built and pictured below (the transmitter is in
the blob of hot melt glue on the end of the battery holder) does not
have an on-off switch. I put a 1.5 AA cell that was run down too far to
run my CD player in this transmitter and it ran for over a month before I
replaced it. The one in the transmitter at this moment has been running
it continuously for over three months. Current draw is only about a
milliamp with a new battery (assuming you don't have a super-high beta
transistor in which case the theoretical limit is about 2.5 ma). An
on-off swich is not necessary, though it may satisfy an emotional need.

Here's a nice AC mains powered FM Broadcast
Audio Transmitter with pre-emphasis, audio level control, and tuning
control. The circuit consists of a frequency modulated oscillator, an
audio preamplifier with pre emphasis to supply the frequency modulating
signal, and a buffer amplifier to drive the antenna connector.
Oscillator's frequency is determined by L1 resonating with the 10 pf
capacitor and the total capacitance across it. The collector-base
capacitance of the transistors Q3, Q4, and Q5 is a function of their
revers bias. This is basically a poor man's (or lazy man's) varactor.
The voltage across Q3 is set by a voltage divider and is then modulated
by an Ac coupled audio signal from the pre amp, causing the reverse bias
to vary with the audio signal, which changes the resonant frequency of
L1's circuit, causing the frequency of the oscillator to vary with the
audio signal.
The capacitance of Q4 and Q5 is adjusted by DC bias from the tuning
adjustment potentiometer, and this capacitance sets the center frequency
of the oscillator.
All of the transistors in the oscillator -Q1 through Q5, are 2N4401.
The purpose of the buffer is to minimize frequency shift as loading on
the antenna is changed. It was specifically designed to reduce the
signal amplitude to the antenna. Transmitters should not use any more
power than is necessary to achieve the task at hand, and lightly
coupling the RF into the buffer's base with a gimmick capacitor did the
trick. The transistor is an MPSH34.

Here's a tiny one transistor spy FM
transmitter bug that operates from a single 1.5V AA battery. Main
advantage of this circuit is that power supply is a 1.5 Volts cell (any
size) which makes it possible to fix PCB and the battery into very tight
places. Transmitter even runs with standard NiCd rechargeable cells,
for example a 750mAh AA size battery runs it about 500 hours (while it
draws 1.4mA at 1.24V) which equals to 20 days. This way circuit
especially valuable in amateur spy operations. Mini FM transmitters take
place as one of the standard circuit types in an amateur electronics
fan's beginning steps. When done right, they provide very clear wireless
sound transmission through an ordinary FM radio over a remarkable
distance. I've seen lots of designs through the years, some of them were

This FM transmitter is about the simplest
and most basic FM transmitter it is possible to build and have a useful
transmitting range. It is surprisingly powerful despite its small
component count and 3V operating voltage. It will easily transmit over
300 meters in the open air and even more with higher voltage supply. The
circuit we use is based on a proven Australian design. It may be tuned
anywhere in the FM band. Or it may be tuned outside the commercial M
band for greater privacy. Of course this means you must modify your FM
radio to be able to receive the transmission or have a broad-band FM
receiver. The output power of FM transmitter is within the legal limits
of many countries. However, some countries may ban all wireless FM
transmitters without a license. It is your responsibility to check the
legal requirements for the operation and to obey them. FM transmitter is
constructed on a single-sided printed circuit board PCB.

Here's a PLL FM Transmitter using LMX1601,
ATtiny2313 or AT90S2313 microcontrollers. The common characteristic of
all of the previous low power FM transmitters I've built over the
decades, is that their operating frequency is determined by an LC
resonant circuit. Some of them had excellent stability, some of them
didn't, but I had always wanted to make one that is crystal controlled.
Various schemes had been considered from time-to-time, including the
direct approach of modulating the load capacitance of a a crystal
oscillator, a whimsical phase modulation scheme involving a phase
shifter, some balanced modulators, and limiting amplifiers, and at
times, the down-to-earth and sober approach of modulating a VCO within a
phase locked loop (PLL). While browsing Digikey's online catalog, I
found the LMX1601 frequency synthesizer chip and thought: "Just maybe,
the PLL approach is finally within my grasp."
The LMX1601, which apparently was designed for use in cell phones,
includes everything need to make two phase locked loops except for the
VCOs. More importantly, one of the PLLs, specifically the "AUX" PLL, is
specified to work in the FM broadcast band. The LMX1600 and the LMX1602
were also considered, but the LMX1601 was selected because it has a
"500 MHz option", meaning that it can work down to about 50 MHz.

personally to learn a little more about fm transmitters and fm bug
making (may the HAM radio gods bless me in this pursuit). The ideal
outcome of this project is a very small and full functional FM

In order to be able to build this, we'll have to learn a lot
about amplifiers, LC oscillators, mixers, antennas and FM. This project

So, I needed a small transmitter, which
would allow me to transmit good, old music into my AM-only radios. So,
one saturday afternoon I got into gear, designed and built a very crude,
terribly non-optimized little transmitter. It's almost a joke expressed
in electronics, full of poor design, so please don't think that this is
the best I can do! You must see it as a quick and dirty 5-hour effort,
because that's all the time the transmitter took to design, build, and
test. Making this web page about it is taking much longer! I'm putting
this thing on the web only because many people have asked me to do so,
despite its crude design!

This unit is an updated version of the Wide
Dynamic Range Field Strength Meter. While the basic function is the
same, it has several critical differences:
It uses a specialized integrated circuit, the Analog Devices AD8307.
This chip is designed specifically as a logarithmic amplifier for use
through 500 MHz.
Using the AD8307, it has a wider dynamic range (85 dB versus 55 dB) and
it has built-in temperature compensation.
Because of the different nature of this type of detector - and the fact
that it has temperature compensation - means that there is no need for a
"zeroing" control.
One disadvantage of this approach as compared to the diode approach is
that the AD8307 has a lower frequency response than the diode. The
frequency limit of the meter is dictated pretty much by the diodes
themselves along with their physical layout and related components:
There is no reason why the earlier version could not be constructed to
work through 10 GHz or so - but the AD8307 is falling flat by the time
you get to 1 GHz, making it unsuitable for detecting wireless LANs or
PCS-type cell phones.

Everyone involved with radio transmitters
needs some instruments to assess basic antenna functionality. Among
these instruments, the best-known and most-used one is the Standing Wave
Ratio meter. Some radio amateurs develop a cult for these little
gadgets, having them in line all the time and watching the needles
bounce while they chat. I have seen some guys owning 5 or 6 SWR meters,
and no other instrument relating to antenna testing! While it's
unfortunate that some people - specially amateurs - assign so much
importance to SWR and so little to other parameters, it's also a fact
that SWR needs to be known, so if you use transmitters, you need an SWR
meter.

The important part of the circuit is formed
of the Colpitts type oscillator. C3,C4,C5,C6,CD1-CD2 and L1 determines
the frequency. BF982 and dual gate MOSFET are active parts in
oscillator. When the input impedance of the MOSFET gate inputs are high,
LC tank is not affected. However transistors force the LC tank and
cause phase shift. Two driver stages are added to isolate the antenna
from oscillator. First stage (BF199) amplifies the low signal of the
oscillator and works as a constant load. The second stage (BFR90)
amplifies the signal going through the antenna some more. A short copper
wire can be used as an antenna here. Attaching a large antenna to this
circuit is unnecessary because the output power is low.

This FM transmitter attaches in series to
one of your phone lines. When there is a signal on the line (that is,
when you pick up the handset) the circuit will transmit the
conversation. In particular it will radiate from the phone line itself.
It is a passive device - there is no battery. It uses the signal on the
phone line for power. No aerial is needed - it feeds back the RF signal
into the phone line which radiates it in the FM band. The frequency of
transmission may be adjusted by the trimcap.

This PLL has been designed with an old Motorola circuit :the MC145151.
The VCO is based on a "Colpitz" oscillator equiped with a Fet Transistor.(J310)
Two varicap Diodes are used in order to reduce the global noise of the VCO.
In addition,these two diodes allow the PLL to keep the lock status through a large range of climatic conditions.
An another J310 is used in order to match the impedance between the oscillator and the fist amplifier stage.
A MSA1105 from Minicircuits increases the RF power level coming from the VCO to +14dBm.
A simple low pass filter rejects the second harmonic to -20 dB.(Worst case)
Finally, a 7 dB attenuator and a second amplifier stage (BFR96S) achieve this radio design.

most I could get out of the unit was 1/2 watt, you could probably raise
the dc voltage to 16 volts and get more output but then a much better
heatsink would be required. But for the sake of this project, we'll call
it a 1/2 watt amplifier.

A simple FM transmitter links your
home-entertainment system to a portable radio that can be carried around
the house and into the back yard. For example, you can play music on
the CD changer in your living room, and listen to it on a portable radio
by the back-yard barbeque.
IC1 is a voltage-controlled oscillator with integrated varactor. Its
nominal frequency of oscillation is set by inductor L1, and a 390nH
value places that frequency at 100MHz. Potentiometer R1 then lets you
select a channel by tuning over the FM band of 88MHz to 108MHz. Output
power is about -21dBm into 50 (most countries accept emissions below
10dBm in the FM band).
The home system's left and right audio signals are summed by R3 and R4,
and attenuated by the (optional) potentiometer R2. R2's wiper signal
serves as a volume control by modulating the RF frequency. Signals above
60mV introduce distortion, so the pot attenuates down from that level.
In the absence of a standard FM radio antenna, 75cm (30 inches) of wire
will suffice as a transmitting antenna. For best reception, it should be
mounted parallel with the receiving antenna. The IC operates on a
single supply voltage in the range 3V to 5V, but you should regulate the
applied voltage to minimize frequency drift and noise.
