One of our favorite purveyors of electronics knowledge is at it again. This time, [Afroman] explains how frequency modulation works while building up a short-range FM transmitter on a board he has ...

The range of this FM transmitter is around 100 meters at 9V DC supply. The circuit comprises three stages. The first stage is a microphone preamplifier built around BC548 transistor. The next stage is ...

The heart of every radio transmitter is a reliable oscillator. Creating small, and tunable, oscillators that can maintain a precise frequency when conditions like temperature, pressure or humidity ...

The circuit is a simple VHF FM transmitter circuit. It is basically a VHF Colpitts oscillator capable of transmitting sound or music to any standard FM receiver/FM Transmitter. The circuit is a simple ...

A group of mechanical engineers at Columbia University have produced the world’s tiniest FM radio transmitter. At its heart is a micrometer-sized oscillator powered by one-atom-thick graphene. But ...

New York, NY—November 17, 2013—A team of Columbia Engineering researchers, led by Mechanical Engineering Professor James Hone and Electrical Engineering Professor Kenneth Shepard, has taken advantage ...

Smallest FM radio transmitter just created using graphene by the wizards at Columbia University. This one is pretty cool and I certainly do not want to butcher the idea and explanation behind it all.

The Si47xx series of integrated circuits from Silicon Labs is a fascinating series of consumer broadcast radio products, chips that apply SDR technologies to deliver a range of functions that were ...

A team of engineers from Columbia University has created a nano-mechanical system with the ability to create FM radio signals. In other words, they've built what is effectively the world’s smallest FM ...
