COMPUTERISED MORSE CODE GENERATOR
/TRANSMITTER
PUNERJOT SINGH MANGAT
The circuit given here can &e used to send telegraphic messages via computer. The message data entered through the
computer "e$&oard is converted to corresponding Morse code and transmitted via the circuit attached to an$ (!M
compati&le computer/s printer port.
Morse code pulses from the computer appearing at pin 0 of the 12'pin parallel port are routed to the &ase of transistor
nT34CL3556 which in turn switches on the audio fre7uenc$ oscillator &uilt around (C3 4)E2226 for the duration of each
pulse. The fre7uenc$ of the oscillator can &e varied &$ ad8usting potmeters V+3 415 "ilo'ohm6 and V+1 425 "ilo'ohm6.
The audio output from pin 0 of (C 4)E2226 is connected to an FM transmitter comprising transistor T1 4!F39:!6 and the
associated components. The fre7uenc$ of the transmitter can &e changed with the help of trimmer capacitor VC3 or &$
changing the num&er of turns of coil L3.
The FM modulated signal is coupled to a short'wire antenna via capacitor C;. The signal can &em received using an$
read$made FM receiver tuned to the fre7uenc$ of the transmitter.
As stated earlier< this circuit is connected to the parallel port of the PC. -nl$ pins 0 and 12 of the =D/ connector are used.
Pin 0 corresponding to data &it D3 of port 0;>4he?6 carries the Morse Code data from the computer to the circuit while
pin 12 serves as common ground.
The circuit should &e powered &$ @2 volts regulated power suppl$. (t should &e fi?ed inside a metal &o? to reduce
interference.
The program< written in T,+!- PASCAL ;.5< accepts the message via the "e$&oard< converts it to corresponding Morse
code and sends the code to pin 0 of the printer port. The Morse code of various characters appears under the function

Awrite4ch6/ of the program where in =di/ represents a short duration pulse and =da/ represents a long duration pulse. The
program is interactive and permits variation of speed. The program can &e modified to read and transmit the te?t files or
one can even ma"e a TS+ 4terminate and'sta$'resident6 program.
(t is hoped that this circuit idea would prove to &e of great value to the government/s telecom department< defence
services< coast guard< merchant nav$ and amateur radio operators as well as all those who ma"e use of Morse code for
message transmission.
