About the Phone transceiver digital modes interface PCB
Phone transceiver digital modes interface is an open source PCB design by 4x1md, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 50 × 50 mm, with 33 components from 22 distinct parts.
By type, the board carries 15 resistors, 10 capacitors, 3 connectors, 2 transistors, 2 diodes and 1 switch.
It belongs with the rf & radio designs in this gallery.
From the project
AFSK interface for Android smartphones and tablets.
This interface board was designed for experimenting with RTTY, SSTV and other digital modes with my Yaesu FT-817ND transceiver using DroidRTTY and DroidSSTV applications on an Android phone.
The idea of this circuit is not new. Many of its variants were published in the internet and the difference between them is relatively small. Usually different versions use different transistors and diodes and some resistors and capacitors values vary but the circuit remains the same.
