Frequency range

The FM frequency range supported by the FM transmitter.

For normal use of the device, it is necessary that at least part of this range coincides with the tuner range in the car radio, and that there is no full-fledged FM station broadcasting at the selected frequency. However, most modern FM transmitters cover frequencies of the order of 88 – 108 MHz, this is quite enough to find a suitable frequency.

Screen

The presence of a display in the design of the FM transmitter.

Various additional information can be displayed on the display : the set frequency, the signal source used, the name of the song being played, etc. This greatly simplifies device management.

Max. memory card / flash drive capacity

The maximum size of a memory card or USB-drive (flash drive) supported by the transmitter.

For more information about memory cards and flash drives, see "Cart Reader" and "USB Input", respectively. Here we note that a modern FM transmitter can support two types of media at once; in such cases, the volume limit is often relevant for both flash drives and memory cards, but this nuance does not hurt to further clarify the documentation. Anyway, this limitation is primarily due to the fact that a higher storage capacity requires a more powerful hardware; in addition, there are nuances associated with individual subspecies of memory cards. Anyway, it is impossible to exceed the maximum allowable volume — this can lead to malfunctions and even to hardware breakdowns.

Media support

File formats supported by the FM transmitter.

Almost all models support the MP3 format, which is the most common modern digital audio format. Some devices are also capable of working with WMA — this is also one of the main formats, but for a number of reasons it is used much less often. And even less common is compatibility with WAV — this format provides higher sound quality, but with FM broadcasting this advantage is lost, and the files themselves take up noticeably more space than MP3 and WMA.

Fast charge

The quick charge function, as the name suggests, allows you to significantly reduce the time spent on the procedure. This is achieved through increased current and/or voltage, as well as "smart" process control (at each stage, the current and voltage correspond to the optimal parameters). At the same time, the rechargeable gadget must also have a similar fast charging technology.
