SNC521
One Channel Direct Drive Speech Controller
1 INTRODUCTION
SNC521 is a one-channel voice synthesizer IC with PWM direct drive circuit. It
built-in a 4-bit tiny controller with two 4-bit I/O ports. By programming through the tiny
controller in SNC521, user’s varied applications including voice section combination,
key trigger arrangement, output control, and other logic functions can be easily
implemented.

5 FUNCTION DESCRIPTIONS
5.1. Oscillator
SNC521 accept RC type oscillator for system clock. The typical circuit diagram for
oscillator is listed as follow.

5.2. ROM
SNC521 contains substantial 32K word (10-bit) internal ROM. Program and voices
are shared with this same 32K word ROM.
5.3. RAM
SNC521 contains 64 nibbles RAM. The 64 nibbles RAM are divided into four pages
(page 0 to page 3, 16 nibble RAM on each page). In our programming structure,
users can easily define and locate RAM page in the program. For instance, users can
use the instructions, PAGEn (n=0 to 3) to switch and indicate the RAM page. Besides,
users can use direct mode, M0 ~ M15 in the data transfer type instructions, to access
all 16 nibbles of each page.
5.4. Power Down Mode
“End” instruction will power down SNC521 and enable IC to consume fewer current for
power saving. (<3uA @VDD=3V and <5uA @VDD=5V) Please be aware that when
the power down mode is activated in SNC521, any valid data transition (L H or H L)
occurring on any IO ports (P2 and P3) will lead SNC521 back to normal operation
mode.
5.5. Sampling Rate Counter
The unique sampling rate counter is designed in voice channel to be able to play
diverse voices at different sample playing rates. The playing rate can be adaptively
set up among from the wide ranges of 2.5KHz to 20KHz. This feature makes voice
close to its original source and yield the better voice quality.

5.6. I/O Ports
P2 and P3 are two 4-bit I/O ports. Any bit of P2 and P3 can be programmed as
either input or output port individually. Any valid data transition (H L or L H) of
P2 and P3 can reactivate the chip when the chip is in power-down stage.

Note: Weak N-MOS can serve as pull-low resistor.
5.7. DAC & PWM
SNC521 is an advanced chip to be designed having two optimal methods to play
out the voices. One is DAC and the other is PWM. Upon user’s applications, user
can select either DAC or PWM in his design. Please be aware that only one
method can be activated at a time.
DAC: A 7-bit current type digital-to-analog converter is built-in SNC521. The
relationship between input digital data and output analog current signal is listed
in the following table. Also, the recommended application circuit is illustrated as
follows.

PWM: A PWM (pulse width modulation) circuit is built-in SNC521. PWM can
convert input digital data into pulse trains with suitable different pulse width. The
maximum resolution of PWM is 7 bits. Two huge output stage circuits are
designed in SNC521. With this advanced circuit, the chip is capable of driving
speaker directly without external transistors. The recommended application
circuit is illustrated as follows.
