Set-up Connections:
Before starting the ISD-ES1600B-Prog software application, make sure that the board is plugged into one of the PC’s USB ports and properly installed. Once the software starts, it will attempt to locate the board, but if no board is detected, an error message will be displayed. If so, it will be necessary to restart the software.

If detection of the board is successful, the main control panel will be displayed. The controls allow selection of the chip device, sample rate, volume decimation, and audio file to be recorded. However, the input audio file must be 8 kHz, 16-bit mono PCM.

System Requirements:
The demo board must be connected to a USB port on a PC running Windows 2000 or higher that supports Microsoft’s .NET framework v1.1 or higher.

Set-up:
Before starting the software application, make sure that the evaluation board is plugged into one of the PC’s USB ports and properly installed. Once the software starts, it will attempt to download firmware onto the evaluation board, but if no board is detected, an error message will be displayed. If so, it will be necessary to restart the software.

Once the software is running, the main control panel will appear. To begin evaluating the ChipCorder® part, first apply power to the chip by pressing the power toggle button (1), then press the PWRUP button (2) to send a SPI power up command. This evaluation system uses the ChipCorder®’s SPI interface, and the last step starts the chip’s power up sequence and resets the chip to its IDLE state.


Pre-Programming a Wave File:
Another option for set recording is the Delayed Record feature. The wave file format has to be 16bit PCM mono ( 8KHZ to 44 KHz sampling rate). Checking the SE_REC (9) box, puts the ChipCorder® into a mode that will wait for a signal at ANAIN before recording. Once checked, the set address feature is enabled and the device path is setup for ANAIN (FT) record. At this point the user is prompted to select an audio file. The address range can be manually entered or the software can calculate the necessary range to record the entire audio file by pressing (11). Pressing records begins playback of the specified file and the record session is triggered automatically.

This requires the following hardware connections:
  • USB connection from the PC to the demo board.
  • An Audio connection from the PC to ANAIN on the demo board.
    (Usually the Headphone Jack)
    Note: Be sure that the volume is turned up all the way.
  • Speaker connection to the Demo Board

 

 

1.) When complete, the SE REC box will be unchecked:
2.) Press Play to hear the recorded Wave file.

Systems Requirements:
The demo board must be connected to a USB port on a PC running Windows 2000 or higher that supports Microsoft’s .NET framework v1.1 or higher. Please down load the latest .NET framework from www.microsoft.com go to Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package.
Please also install the SP1 service pack.

Initial Setup
  • When the ISD-ES502 board is initially received install the batteries, carefully observing polarity.
  • If some of the LEDs light at this time, push the green Power Button to start unit properly.
  • Otherwise, push the green Power Button on the lower left to power on the unit. The ISD-ES502 will announce that it is "Ready" and conclude with the "-" in the middle of the numeric LED display turned on. Note that the unit will automatically turn itself off after a period of inactivity to conserve battery capacity. If one wants to shut it off earlier then just press the "*" button on the keypad. The ISD-ES502 will sound a tone and turn off.
  • The ISD-ES502 is now ready for the user to choose the mode of operation.

Set-up
When the ISD-ES511 program is started, a search of the system is performed to locate the ISD-ES511 Board. The program then operates in one of two modes.

Operation without the ISD-ES511 Board:
The indicator in the upper left corner will indicate that a board was not found and its background color will be yellow. The command buttons and status indicator will not be functional, but the block diagram and configuration bits are functional. This will allow the user to quickly determine specific configuration words for use with the I51XX (I5102, I5104, I5108 or I5116). See below for operation of the block diagram.

Operation with the ISD-ES511 Board:
The indicator in the upper left corner will indicate that a board was found and its background color will be red. The red indicates that the socket on the ISD-ES511 board is powered off. The command buttons and status indicator will not be functional, but the block diagram and configuration bits are. After installing an ISD5100 (ISD5104, ISD5106, ISD5108, ISD5116) device, the socket can be powered up by selecting the Socket Power command button. Once the socket is powered up, the background color of the board indicator will turn to green. The command buttons are now enabled and device operation is allowed. See Device Operation below for details.

Systems Requirements:
The demo board must be connected to a USB port on a PC running Windows 98SE or later versions of the OS
