ESP32 FM DevKit (esp32_fmdevkit)

ESP32-based development board

Features

- USB to UART bridge with auto boot mode / reset
- Blue OLED 128x64 (top 16pixels yellow for a status bar)
- 24-bit Stereo I2S DAC
- Single-chip FM transmitter with RDS support
- 3.5mm Headphone Jack output
- 4 User buttons
- 1 Status LED (Red) and 1 User LED (Blue)
- RF SMA Output
- Expansion Pin Headers

Note: The ESP32 FM DevKit is available in two variants: Standard is based on ESP32 with on-board PCB antenna trace and Extended is based on ESP32 with external IPEX antenna connector (antenna not included)

The FM transmitter works in full range, i.e. 76 - 108 MHz. Check your local FM frequencies first.

Build your own FM Radio station based on this kit! Use WiFi or Bluetooth as an audio source (default ESP32 example firmware uses Bluetooth A2DP sink).
First steps
  1. Connect USB to a computer/power bank
  2. Pair your laptop/phone with "ESP32-FM_DevKit"
  3. Play some music
  4. Tune the TX Frequency by UP/DOWN and confirm with OK button
  5. Tune your FM Radio receiver to this frequency
  6. Download the example code from here and do your own stuff
