In this circuit diagram we have mention about FM tuning side only.When we assemble the Tuning Capacitor, we must be careful to select correct side of tuning capacitor.Normally in the FM side of the tuner middle pin and other pin capacitance will be nearly 15pF to 40pF. Middle pins: B and F, FM side:A,B, C in this photo. |

Please send your ideas, those are very important for our success…
If somebody wants sony doc pl ref following site
http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/115246/SONY/CXA1019AM.html
it is ok just simple to adjust the design
on the if it is copied
The Diagram So Very Nice !
thanks ! ! !
I’m very interested with this design can I order the materials from your through western union money transfer and get them so that I may real experience it?
please if ok let me know.
I’d prefer assembled kit.Is it availbale?what is the price.Suppose I want to connect this radio’s output to an external audio amp.How do I do it?
is there any specification for IF transformer ?? shopkeeper doesn’t understand ORANGE color….
thanx..
If you can’t find out IF Transformer, replace 10.7 two pin ceramic filter. Audio output will increase and tuning part become easy. Good Luck !
please if i need to suimulate this this circuit on orcad how could i find CXA1019s or FM Tuning Capacitor
Nice presentation!
Thanks.
CXA1619BS is a powerful IC.
please post am AM/MW reciever (only AM) diagram with bar antenna.
nice diagram…
can you provide also the am/fm radio circuit??
I’d prefer assembled kit.Is it availble?what is the price.Suppose I want to connect this radio’s output to an external audio amp.How do I do it?
can i ask what is a simulator program that you used in trying this circuit… i try using the tinycad but i don’t
see some items listed…
can i use red if transformer instead?what are other alternatives if orange if transformer is not available?
please i need the data sheet of cxa1019s whigh in the wirless alarm car circit which is
very good performance
Super presentation
Hello, can any one tell me plz, how to identify diodes?
hai i ask one doubt if cxa1619 is similar to cxa1019 please reply to me
thanks and regards,
N.saravanan
good

The discriminator transformer is of the “quadrature” type. In this application it is the same as the Xicon 42IF124 (approximately 4.5uH in parallel with a 51PF capacitor. The ceramic discriminator (LT10.7) will give greater volume and reduce adjustments but at slightly higher distortion.
Que paso con mis comentario
please give me CXA 1019P circuit
very very nice sir,
please send CXA1019 FM RADIO components with pcb & diagram.
my address
# 89, 3rd main, 8th cross, ” I ” block, Ramakrishnanagara-570022, Mysuru, Karnataka,India
CAN I USED SAME COMPONENTS WHEN I’AM USING SAME CXA1019M INSTEAD OF CXA1019S?
yup,der is no difference only the number matters ,alphabets dont matter
Yes. Try this kit for parts (I have built it and it works) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Improve-Version-DIY-FM-Radio-Kit-Electronic-Learning-Suite-Parts/32608938474.html?spm=2114.01010208.3.68.Mv7bHV&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_2_10091_10090_10088_10089,searchweb201603_1&btsid=a1000559-4916-4fd6-9c75-14e49cf9be2d
Can I Make FM Transmitter USING Sony CXA10198. Do You Know IC PIN Name Please Reply.
cxa is sony chips
Cxa1019 is no longer producted but you can find IT by China In `verygood quality`with thumb face at bottom. Now u can find 1238 n1619.Look at datasheet compare it n u Will never ask again. These for 10 years children. For your project should use transistor all, make IT very sensitive. Nggih mas.
If i will use same inductance (both 3.75 turns) and same pf (C5 and C6) what will be the problem ?
Hi dear sir
I have made the radio exactly according to your schematic but it has only the hiss sound. The only difference is using two 20 pf variable caps with two pins instead of one with three pins. Now what should i do to make it work?
Thanks
