74FM is short for Frequency Modulation; the information then is encapsulated in the frequency deviation from a center frequency Creating FM is not very difficult if you use an oscillator with an electronically controllable oscillation frequency that hence creates . Detecting FM is more complicated. One way is reusing the transmitter’s voltage controlled oscillator in the feedback path around a stage that has a transfer function with high gain. The system transfer is then approximately the reciprocal of the transfer of the feedback path, and hence .
