This is FOSS Radio capablity with BCL(BroadCasting Listening), controlled by micro-controller. * Licence - Hardware: CC-BY-SA v3.0 - Software: GPLv2+LE (Basically GPLv2, but SDCC/XC8's libraries is excluded from GPLv2) I *do not* restrict commercial-use! But, I'm very,very,very,(repeat 253times) poor X-) So, please contact and donate to me if you pleasure or using to commercial products! If you don't use to commercial product, I also welcome donation from you ;) * Need items * MCU, as of PIC18F45K20. But (maybe) easy to port to other MCU, PIC18F family or (maybe) AVR, ATMega, but not tested yet. http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/Devices.aspx?dDocName=en026337 * AKC6955 DSP-RADIO-CHIP made by disipur.com (深圳市迪斯普科技有限公司) in china. Japanese shop AITENDO sells this chip as DIP MODULE. http://www.disipur.com/down/html/?4.html http://www.aitendo.com/product/7012 * LCD character display with HD44780 compatible and 3.3V powered. I recommand 16colomns x 2lines display or larger. * 8.000MHz christal or ceramic-rezonator. * And other electronics parts and tools ;) * Microchip's MPLAB X IDE.(Maybe not need?) http://www.microchip.com/pagehandler/en-us/family/mplabx/ * Compiler: - Microchip's XC8 compiler, you can use 32KB program-area PIC18F. http://www.microchip.com/pagehandler/en_us/devtools/mplabxc/ - If you want to build with SDCC(v.3.3.x), you should use greater than 48KB program-area PIC18F. http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/ * First step 1. Assemble circuits below of gSCH/ . MW/SW Pre amp seems to be not needed if your home is better or has good antenna. 2. Burn bin/*/*.hex to PIC18F45K20 (or other) MCU via MPLAB X IPE or MPLAB X IDE. Put MCU(or others) to board. And play to GOD,Budda,Allah(or other) ;) and turn on power. Have fun! Ohta.
