These chipsets translate plain English text into speech in real time, without the assistance of a PC or high-powered processor. They enable you to add text-to-speech and recording/playback capability to virtually any design, quickly and painlessly, with virtually no system overhead. Their small footprint allows them to be squeezed into the smallest of places, including that new handheld product design you've been working on. All they ask for is 4 mA of operating current @ 3.3V (7 mA @ 5V) to keep them happy, or only 0.7 uA when you're not using them. Think a PC would ask so little? Fully Integrated Solutions The RC8650/60 chipsets include everything needed to implement text-to-speech synthesis with full dynamic control of the voice characteristics. In addition, integrated tone generators provide telephone dialing, music, and programmable signaling tones. Up to 7.5 MB of built in, flash-based recording memory can store up to 33 minutes of sound files, which can be played back on demand. |
