FM Transmitter Using IC

Objective
To design and construct a simple FM transmitter circuit using ICs to transmit audio signals
over short distances.

Components Required
 1. IC: BF494 or any RF transistor (used for modulation)
 2. Resistors: 1 kΩ, 10 kΩ
 3. Capacitors: 10 pF, 100 nF, 10 µF
 4. Inductor: 5 turns on a 5 mm diameter air core
 5. Microphone
 6. Antenna: 20–30 cm wire
 7. Power Supply: 9V battery
 8. Breadboard or PCB and connecting wires

Circuit Description
The FM transmitter works by using a microphone to pick up sound signals, which are then
amplified and used to modulate a high-frequency carrier wave generated by the oscillator
circuit built around the IC or RF transistor. The modulated signal is transmitted through the
antenna and can be received by an FM radio tuned to the correct frequency (typically 88–
108 MHz).

Working Principle
The microphone converts sound waves into electrical signals. These signals are fed into a
modulator circuit that includes a tank circuit (LC circuit) to generate a carrier frequency.
The transistor or IC modulates the carrier with the audio input and transmits it through the
antenna. The frequency of transmission can be slightly adjusted by varying the inductance
or capacitance.

Applications
 1. Wireless audio transmission
 2. Educational demonstration of FM principles
 3. Short-range radio communication
 4. Personal audio broadcasting
Conclusion
This project demonstrates the basic working of an FM transmitter using simple electronic
components. It is suitable for hobbyists and students to understand FM modulation and
radio frequency transmission.
