Audio transmitter module, Bluetooth 5.1, BLE

Bluetooth audio transmission module integrated with a USB sound card, which adopts Bluetooth version 4.1 to ensure the quality and stability of the transmitted audio signal.

This module can receive any audio signal from any audio source such as computer USB port, phones, TV, AUX, etc... This is then modulated by GFSK modulation and transmitted through the antenna built into the PCB. To complete the setup, you also need an audio receiver, portable speaker, bluetooth headphones, or bluetooth audio reception modules (MH-M18, MH-M28, MH-M38, etc...). Pairing is simple and password-free.

It can be used, for example, to transmit the audio signal to a speaker without the need for wires.

By connecting to the computer's USB port, the module is recognized as a sound card, so it will implicitly be able to transmit the audio signal coming from the computer.

The module supports AT commands via the serial port. It can also be connected to an Arduino compatible development board that will be able to communicate with the module via the serial interface.

AT commands:

AT+ REST, GMR, STATUS, CONADD=0x'12-CHARACTER MAC ADDRESS` (if it is not 12 characters, it may be necessary to add a 0 at the beginning of the address), DISCONN, SCAN, ADDLINKADD=0x'12-CHARACTER MAC ADDRESS` (if it is not 12 characters, it may be necessary to add a 0 at the beginning of the address), ADDLINKNAME=......, VMLINK?, DELVMLINK

Specifications:

Model: KCX_BT_EMITTER

Version: 1.1

Supply voltage: 3.3 - 5VDC

Current consumption: 35mA

Channel: Stereo

Bluetooth version: 5.1

Operating frequency: 2400 - 2485MHz

Effective communication distance: 10 meters

Modulation: GFSK

Pin spacing: 1.27mm

PCB dimensions mm: 15 x 23.7 x 2.7mm

Instructions:

The default pairing mode of the module, without AT commands, is via the CON button. Bringing it to the LOW state (connected to GND) will initiate the automatic connection procedure to the nearest device.

This setting will be stored in the module's non-volatile memory so that upon subsequent connections, even after a power outage, the module will reconnect to the same device.

To connect it to another device, all you have to do is trigger the CON pin again (via GND).

A physical button can be mounted between the CON pin and GND. See image below.
