Phone Spy Transmitter

Published:2012/11/15 0:29:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: Phone, Spy, Transmitter

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. This not only saves a lot of space but also money. It consumes very low current from telephone lines without disturbing its performance. The phone bug transmitter is very tiny and can be built using a single -IC type veroboard that can be easily fitted inside a telephone connectin box of 3.75cm x 5cm. The spy phone transmitter consists of two sections, namely, automatic switching section and FM transmitter section. Spy phone transmitter circuit diagram Phone Spy Transmitter Automatic switching section comprises resistors R1 to R3, preset VR1, transistor T1 and T2, zener D2 and diode D1. Resistor R1, along with preset VR1, works as a voltage divider. When voltage across the telephone lines is 48V DC, the voltage available at wiper of preset VR1 ranges from 0 to 32V (adjustable). The switching voltage of the circuit depends on zener breakdown voltage and switching voltage of the transistor T1. Thus, if we adjust preset VR1 to get over 24.7 volts, it will cause the zener to breakdown and transistor T1 to conduc. As a result collector of transistor T1 will get pulled towards negative supply, to cut off transistor T2. At this stage, if you lift the handset of the telephone, the line voltage drops to about 11V and transistor T1 is cut off. As a result, T2 gets forward biased through R2 to provide a DC path for T3 used in the following FM transmitter section. The low-power FM transmitter section comprises oscillator transistor T3, coil L1 and a few other components. T3 works as a common-emitter RF oscillator, with T2 serving as an electronic 搊n/off� switch. The audio signal available across the telephone lines automatically modulates oscillator frequency via T2 along with its biasing R3. The modulated RF signal is fed to the antenna. The telephne conversation can be heard on an FM receiver remotely when it is tuned to the transmitter frequency.   (View)

Micro Spy PLL FM Transmitter

Published:2012/11/15 0:26:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: Micro, Spy, PLL , FM, 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.   (View)

Long Range FM Transmitter Circuit

Published:2012/11/15 0:21:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: Long Range , FM , Transmitter Circuit

This circuit is a circuit diagram fm transmitter. This circuit is somewhat different from the previous fm transmitter circuit. Transmitter circuit described here has the additional RF power amplifier stage, after the oscillator stage, to increase the power output of 200-250 milliwatts. With a good matching 50-ohm ground plane antenna or multi-element yagi antenna, this transmitter can provide a good enough signal strength to a distance of about 2 kilometers. The circuit built around transistor T1 (BF494) is the 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 power amplifier. This increases the oscillator signals� power four to five times. Thus, 200-250 milliwatts of power produced at the collector of transistor T2. For better results, assemble the circuit on a good quality glass epoxy board and house the transmitter in the case of aluminum. Shield the oscillator stage using aluminum sheets. Transistor T2 must be mounted on the heat sink. Do not switch on the transmitter without a matching antenna. Adjust both trimmers (VC1 and VC2) for maximum transmission power. Adjust potentiometer VR1 to set the fundamental frequency near 100 MHz. Coil winding details are given below: L1 � 4 changes of 20 SWG wire close wound over 8mm diameter plastic former. L2 � 2 changes of 24 SWG wire near top end of L1. (Note: There is no core (ie air core) is used to coil on top) L3 � 7 changed from 24 SWG wire close wound with 4mm diameter air core. L4 � 7 changed from 24 SWG wire-wound on ferrite beads (choking) Potentiometer VR1 is used to change the fundamental frequency whereas potentiometer VR2 is used as power control.   (View)

Long Range FM Transmitter

Published:2012/11/15 0:19:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: Long Range, FM , Transmitter

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. For better results, assemble the circuit on a good-quality glass epoxy board and house the transmitter inside an aluminum case. Shield the oscillator stage using an aluminum sheet. Coil winding details are given below: L1 - 4 turns of 20 SWG wire close wound over 8mm diameter plastic former. L2 - 2 turns of 24 SWG wire near top end of L1. (Note: No core (i.e. air core) is used for the above coils) L3 - 7 turns of 24 SWG wire close wound with 4mm diameter air core. L4 - 7 turns of 24 SWG wire-wound on a ferrite bead (as choke) Potentiometer VR1 is used to vary the fundamental frequency whereas potentiometer VR2 is used as power control. For hum-free operation, operate the transmitter on a 12V rechargeable battery pack of 10 x 1.2-volt Ni-Cd cells. Transistor T2 must be mounted on a heat sink. Do not switch on the transmitter without a matching antenna. Adjust both trimmers (VC1 and VC2) for maximum transmission power. Adjust potentiometer VR1 to set the fundamental frequency near 100 MHz. This transmitter should only be used for educational purposes. Regular transmission using such a transmitter without a license is illegal in India.   (View)

FM Transmitter with Varactor Diode Tuning

Published:2012/11/14 0:54:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: FM Transmitter , Varactor Diode Tuning

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.   (View)

FM Transmitter Circuit

Published:2012/11/14 0:53:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: FM , Transmitter Circuit

Here is the circuit diagram of the simple FM transmitter using a transistor. Great performance or range is not guaranteed here, because this is an elementary design. General purpose radio frequency transistor BF 494 (Q1) is used here for obtaining FM modulation. A condenser mic is used here to pickup the sound.The condenser mic converts the sound to electrical variations and this variations are fed to the base of Q1 , which performs the amplification as well as modulation.The capacitor C2 and L1 determines the frequency of transmission.The circuit can be powered from a 9V transistor radio battery. Notes The coil L1 can be made by winding 8 turns of 1mm thick enamel coated copper wire on a ball pen refill. The coil should be tapped at the center for connecting the antenna. A 30 cm wire can be used as an antenna. Remember! This circuit is an elementary circuit.No good performance or range is not guaranteed.Ideal for demo applications only.I got only 8 meter range with some decent sound quality. Battery is strictly recommended because mains powered supply may induce additional noise.   (View)

FM Transmitter Bug

Published:2012/11/14 0:52:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: FM , Transmitter Bug

The goal of this project is for me 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 transmitter that we can stick into a plastic mint box. 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 assumes you're already comfortable build your own PCB boards. If you're not please take a look at the homemade pcb's tutorial before you continue. It will help you out a lot. So we've already seen mint can MP3 players and mint can amplifiers for guitars and tons of other projects, why not an FM bug transmitter? Well for starters, a tin can would be the worst place to put an fm transmitter! Luckily I stumbled upon this plastic mint box and thought...why not? Two transistor FM transmitters and FM bug circuits are all over the internet and they all share a common design that will be followed in this project as well. The reason I'm not trying to invent something new here is simply because FM transmitters have been redesigned to death. Why not instead have some fun with it?   (View)

FM Broadcast Transmitter

Published:2012/11/14 0:50:00 Author:muriel | Keyword: FM, Broadcast, Transmitter

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. The inductor was wound around a #8 X 32 bolt (about 3/16 diameter) and then removed by unscrewing the bolt. The inductor was then streached to about a 3/8 inch length and tapped near the center. The oscillator frequency should come out somewhere near the center of the band (98 MHz) and can be shifted higher or lower by slightly expanding or compressing the inductor. A small signal diode (1N914 or 1N4148) is used as a varactor diode so that the total capacity in parallel with the inductor varies slightly at the audio rate thus causing the oscillator frequency to change at the audio rate (600 Hz). The ramping waveform at pins 2 and 6 of the timer is applied to the reversed biased diode through a large (1 Meg) resistor so that the capacitance of the diode changes as the ramping voltage changes thus altering the frequency of the tank circuit. Alternately, an audio signal could be applied to the 1 Meg resistor to modulate the oscillator but it may require an additional pullup resistor to reverse bias the diode. The N channel JFET transistors used should be high frequency VHF or UHF types (Radio Shack #276-2062 MPF102) or similar.   (View)
