Wireless Doorbell Transmitter Circuit

  • on Saturday, July 31, 2010
  • This is a circuit for transmitter circuit that can be used for wireless doorbell circuit. The transmitter circuit is made up of two building blocks - the 303MHz RF oscillator and the 32 KHz crystal controlled oscillator. This is the figure of the circuit;


    The 303MHz oscillator consists of a self-oscillating circuit made up of the coil on the PC board and a 9p (9 puff) capacitor (actually 4p and 5p in parallel). The circuit starts-up by the transistor producing noise. This rising-and-falling signal on the collector is passed to the parallel tuned circuit (the tank circuit) and the base sees a very smooth sine wave at a frequency of 303MHz. This sine wave is then amplified by the transistor and this is how the 303MHz frequency is generated.

    When the crystal is added, the frequency increases (because the effect of the 2n2 and crystal in series creates a lower capacitance than 2n2) and as it rises, the amplitude of the feedback signal increases until it reaches a maximum at the resonant frequency of the crystal. The crystal exhibits the lowest impedance (the highest capacitance) at the resonant frequency. This is how the circuit stabilizes at the frequency of the crystal. When the device is turned on, the 150k on the base of the second transistor turns the transistor on. The third transistor has 0.65v on the collector and the base also receives very close to 0.65v, via the 220k resistor. The third transistor is not fully turned on and it produces a small amount of noise. This noise is passed to the second transistor and appears on the collector. The collector passes this noise to the base of the third transistor and the noise very rapidly increases to a maximum. It comes to a point where the waveform above is generated and the reason why the spikes are so narrow is easy to explain.
