FM Radio Transmitter 70-108 MHz – I2C

Radio transmitter that can modulate voice or an audio signal to broadcast it over the air, receivable on any FM-band radio receiver

SKU 1606-HRS0500EAN 8219671120050Item type: Assembled

Description

This module is a compact board designed to transmit audio signals in the FM radio band between 70 MHz and 108 MHz. It is based on a high-performance integrated chip (such as the KT0803L) that enables digital stereo modulation and direct control via the I²C interface. Thanks to its compact size and ease of use, the module is ideal for educational, hobby and experimental applications, such as building personal mini radio stations or short-range wireless audio transmission systems.

The board includes a 3.5 mm jack input, which allows external audio sources such as smartphones, computers or MP3 players to be connected.
The modulated signal output is sent to a dedicated antenna pin, to which a simple conductive wire about 75 cm long can be connected to ensure good signal coverage.

Transmission frequency and various settings are controlled via the I²C interface, compatible with microcontrollers such as Arduino or Raspberry Pi, which allow the module’s operation to be programmed and customized. Power supply is simple and flexible, and can be provided with a voltage between 3 V and 5 V.

Technical specifications
  • Dedicated antenna pin (recommended wire ~75 cm)
  • Applications: personal audio transmission, educational projects, DIY wireless systems
