Embedded systems development for Cardsystem-586
Designed to simplify development and significantly reduce time-to-market for embedded applications, Gothic Components is offering an easy-to-use starter kit for the Cardsystem-586.
Flexible options for single- and dual-row LCDs
New single- and dual-row LCDs from Gothic Components display up to 32 characters and are available in a range of sizes, formats and colour options.
The device is available in a 30-pin plastic SSOP package and in die form.
The ML2502 LSI requires no back-up or external MCU, targeting applications such as voice messaging, message cards or interactive toys.
Built-in features include a microphone amplifier with AGC and a speaker driver to support an external dynamic or piezoelectric speaker via an external R-C network.
Supply voltage range is 2.7 to 3.3V and operating temperature is -10 to +70C.
In single-phrase mode the ML2502 uses the entire on-chip flash memory for a single message.
Dual-phrase mode partitions the memory to store two shorter messages.
At 6.4kHz sample rate, dual-phrase mode supports two messages up to 10 seconds each.
Single phrase mode allows up to 20 seconds record/playback.
A development board for the ML2502 is also available, providing a convenient and rapid design route into commercial products.
The demo board allows all features of the ML2502 device to be exercised, with a micro switch array to select dual/single phrase mode and sample frequency.
Inputs for phrase-1 and phrase-2 record and playback signals, manual speaker gain control and led monitor are provided.
The development board also includes a microphone and speaker, enabling new designs based on the ML2502 to be readily evaluated.
The ML2502 is part of a family of speech parts that includes other voice recorders and playback devices.
