Hi-fi Wireless Headset
2.4 GHz digital audio link
Published in issue 384, December 2008
Although they’ve been on the shelves of audio and video equipment retailers for quite a few years now, wireless headsets have been conspicuously absent from hobby electronics magazines. It has to be said that building this sort of headset, especially if we set ourselves a certain level of quality, is far from simple — or rather, was far from simple, until some recently-brought-out modules came along to help us out.
transmitter Resistors 0.5 or 0.25 watt, metal film, 5% R1 = 220O (270O for 2.4 module) R2 = 360O (E96: 357O) (820O for 2.4 module) R3 = 820O (1kO5 for 2.4. module) R4,R6 = 20kO0 R5,R7 = 30kO0 (E96: 30kO1) Capacitors C1 = 470µF 25V radial, lead pitch 5mm C2,C3 = 100 nF ceramic, lead pitch 5mm C4 = 100µF 25V radial, lead pitch 2.5 mm C5 = 10 nF ceramic, lead pitch 5mm C6,C7 = 2µF2 MKT, lead pitch 5 or 7.5mm Semiconductors D1 = 1N4004 D2 = LED, red, low current IC1 = LM317 (TO220) Miscellaneous K1 = PCB screw terminal block, lead pitch 5mm K2 = 3-way pinheader K3 = 2-way pinheader S1 = DIL switch block, 10 contacts S2 = pushbutton, 1 contact Module1 = TXAUDIO2.4/AE (Aurel.) + 2 x 8 pin connector with 2.0 mm lead pitch (e.g. Molex type 872641652, Farnell # 856-0145) PCB, no. 080647-1
receiver Resistors 0.5 or 0.25 watt, metal film, 5% R1 = 270 R2 = 22 R3 = 820 R4,R23 = 1kO5 R5,R13 = 47k R6,R7,R14,R15 = 8kO2 R8,R16 = 2kO2 R9,R17 = 100k R10,R18 = 1k R11,R19 = 10k R12,R20 = 100 R21,R22 = 4kO7 P1 = 50O preset P2 = 10kO potentiometer, dual linear (Vishay-Sfernice type P9A2RFISX1BB2103MAE3) P3 = 10kO potentiometer, dual logarithmic (Vishay-Sfernice type P9A2RFISX1BB2103MLE3) Capacitors C1,C4 = 470µF 25V, radial, lead pitch 5mm C2,C3,C9,C10,C15,C16 = 100nF, ceramic, lead pitch 5mm C5,C8,C11,C14 = 2µF2, MKT, lead pitch 5 or 7.5mm C6,C12 = 820pF C7,C13 = 560pF C17 = 10nF ceramic, lead pitch 5mm Semiconductors D1 = 1N4004 D2,D3 = LED red, low current T1 = BC547B IC1 = LM317 (TO220) IC2,IC3 = OPA2134PA (DIP8) Miscellaneous K1 = 2-way pinheader K2 = 3-way pinheader J1 = 3-way pinheader with jumper S1 = DIL switch block, 10 contacts S2 = pushbutton, 1 contact BT1,BT2 = 9V PP3 battery with clip-on lead (optionally with double-pole switch) Module1 = RXAUDIO2.4 (Aurel) + 2 off 2 x 8 contacts with 2.0mm lead pitch (e.g. Molex type 872641652, Farnell # 856-0145) PCB no. 080647-2
