Radioduino
Some arduino code for a superheterodyne receiver based on the SI5351 as a clock source (LO and BFO).
Originally designed as a cheap LARCSet mod to replace the LC oscillator, it derailed into a more general-purpose tool (for example as a signal generator). It was designed to be built with the minimum necessary to do such things. All you need is a rotary encoder, an I2C LCD, and the SI5351 module.
How to connect the modules:
- Connect the LCD to the I2C bus
- Connect the SI5351 to the I2C bus
- Connect rotary encoder's Clock, Data, and Switch to Arduino's pins 6, 7, and 8
To build the rest of the receiver, all you need is 2 mixers (one for the first IF and the other for the product detector), a crystal filter (for SSB), some amplifiers, etc.
