Wiz-iradio converts online radio into MP3 files
Saelig has introduced the Wiz-iradio, which creates an internet radio that plays streaming audio, without the need for a PC.
It is based on Wiznet's hard-coded W5100 Ethernet IC, an ARM7 processor and MP3 decoder.
Wiz-iradio's mother/daughterboard construction provides connectors.
A backlit 128 x 64 pixel graphic LCD provides program and song-file information.
It comes with an infrared remote control.
Wiz-iradio allows users to listen to web-based radio stations by broadcasting an audio stream in MP3 format.
It can connect to servers with Shoutcast, MMS and HTTP, DHCP or static IP.
Wiz-iradio runs from 5V and needs less than 180mA.
A small Windows utility allows the user to store a list of their favourite network radio station-settings in a simple text file.
Complete C source code software enables the user to customise the program.
