Afternoon All
Before I get shot at, I know this must have been asked before, but I seem to find posts mainly for MAS 3587 and there must be newer, alternative chips by now, and reading the last 2000 posts in anything up to about 10 groups is not really a feasible solution.
So...
I was originally looking at the VS1001 MP3 decoder chip, however the scope of the project may well be changing such that I need to be able to encode too. I can either do this through seperate chips or one capable of both jobs. Control of the chip(s) and access to and from something like an SD/MMC card is intended using a PIC.
The solution needs to have a fairly good rate, ie telephone quality is not sufficient, and it needs to be cheap and available in small quantities. Its a small company, we don't have the need (yet) for
10000 chips!I would be interested to hear peoples thoughts, on any aspect of this.
