Sample Application
Figure 15 shows a sample application utilizing a generic
microcontroller and SPI interface for message management.
The microcontroller uses three general purpose inputs for the
play, record and skip buttons. Five general purpose I/O sig-
nals are utilized in the SPI interface. The /RESET and /BUSY
signal are not used in this design.
The output signal must be amplified in order to drive a
speaker. Several vendors supply integrated speaker amplifi-
ers that can be used for this purpose.
A microphone amplifier and AGC are recommended. Both
blocks are optional. Several vendors supply integrated micro-
phone/AGC amplifiers that can be used for this purpose.
Note that the AGC circuit can be simplified by using the SQLCAP signal as a
peak detector signal.
