@KabelkowyJoe4 жыл бұрын
To transmit audio on 80MHz carier, signal would have to be modulated by 6.5MHz analog carrier witch have to be modulated by analog audio signal. Triple layered analog modulation. Witch would be possible if you add some analog filtering and modulators. 6.5MHz carrier and audio itself could be created by ESP as well by PWM. Simplest modulator can be made from single transistor having coil+capacitor filter in collector. Need 1 for each carier. I assume 3-4 transistors max to be used 1 coil, 1 crystal and 3 GPIO's.

+István Nagy Going to reply to all your posts at once here... I2S is used usually for outputting high fidelity audio, through a DAC, or inputting from a DAC. It can be used at almost any divisor of 160 MHz. There is another piece of hardware, the 5-bit PWM is separate from the I2S system. Regarding pin usage, you can use this with those systems, however, you would need to re-enter the bootloader any time you need to reflash it to that level.
