With this Stereo FM Transmitter with BA1404 you will be able to
create a mini stereo FM station and broadcast to your entire home, a
simple way to have an audio link wireless with ease. With the FM
transmitter BA1404 Hifi Stereo you can stream your music from your iPod
MP3, satellite receiver, computer, DVD player, Mobile Phone, MP4 player
and MP3 and other audio source directly to an FM receiver with crystal
clear sound.
This is the diagram of the transmitter, the connectors CN1 and CN2 are
stereo audio inputs of the trimpot (pots can be added) are for the
volume adjustment capacitor + resistor (R1 / C4 and C11 / R2) form the
pre-emphasis filter in the case of Brazil is 75μS.
The crystal ensures 38KHz stereo broadcast, in case you do not find
this component to the assembly of your circuit, you will have a mono
high-quality transmission, the MPX signal (with 2 audio channels
multiplexed), leave the pin 14 and join with the 19kHz pilot signal (pin
13) and return to ci on pin 12 and will take the stage high-frequency
oscillator formed on pins 9 and 10, the coil of 3.5 turns of the type
found in FM radios in parallel with the 10pF capacitor C13 will be
responsible for the fluctuation in the FM band.
The following high-frequency signal of the transistor T1 pin 7 to
ensure a greater distance n transmission, the antenna coupling capacitor
C9 which may be a telescopic or a piece of stiff wire.
The power supply should be a battery 9Volts preferably rechargeable
9-volt feed to the power transistor, as BA for the integrated circuit
1404 is required only 3 volts or it can burn. then 3 1N4148 diodes are
used as a reference voltage of 2.1 volts in this source.
When assembling this circuit, make sure all components are
positioned in the correct place and then connect the battery, then
connect an audio source such as an MP4 and a nearby FM receiver, adjust
the coil, using a “little key “plastic or wood, until you hear the
signal on the radio. If you can not try to set other values for C13,
and without then redo the settings.
