Voice / Music Chips
The
voice/Music chip is a very low cost easy to use single chip solution. We do all
the work for you, simply plug the battery, connect a resistor and a speaker and
enjoy the voice coming out from your chip. It can’t be simpler than that!
Two
options are available for you:
- You allow us to imprint
the phrase/s you desire into the chip.
- Or you send us (by mail
or email) the phrase/music section of your choice to imprint into your
chip. Wave file format, Real Audio, Quick Time, recorded tapes, and other
formats are welcome.
You
have up to 20 seconds of voice/Music/speech time to imprint into your chip. You
don’t have to have the skills of dealing with voice/music synthesis technology.
We have all the expertise to do it for you. The chip can be used as follow:
- Use as stand alone to
produce a reminder voice message.
- Embed voice/music in
your project very easily.
- Embed voice/music in
the toy of your choice.
- Use in a hobby or art
craftwork.
- Use along with the
security system or as a warning voice.
- Amplify the output
voice/music and use in parties or in public.
- Holiday or special
events greetings.
- And many more…
People
have used this chip in applications such as deterring thieves, annunciations,
reminders to clean hands before leaving rest room, welcome messages for guests,
or just as a door indicator when opened or closed. Any voice or music sections
of your choice, up to 20 seconds, can be used.
The
following sample sounds have been engineered in our dedicated labs for
embedding into our voice/music chips. We have all the electronic equipment,
software, and skills to synthesize millions of various sounds. It is not
authorized to use these sounds in any form without a written permission from
Micro-Subway electronics. Here is a quick sound library from Micro-Subway
electronics you can use with your voice chip. To listen to a sample sound right
click on the link and then select “save as” then play it from the location you

The
voice coming out of the chip to an 8 ohms speaker (1/4 Watts or more) is loud
enough to be heard across a standard living room. If needed you may add an
amplifier to boost up the volume. By simply shorting two specified pins on the
chip, the voice/music can be activated. This can be accomplished either
manually (through a push button Normally Open switch) or via digital logic or
any micro controller unit. An extra feature of adding LED indicator can be
provided upon your demand. Also a second switch can be added to activate a second
voice message or different music section.
