DESCRIPTION
aP8942A high performance Voice OTP is fabricated with Standard CMOS process with embedded
1M bits EPROM. It can store up to 42sec voice message with 4-bit ADPCM compression at 6KHz
sampling rate. 8-bit PCM is also available as user selectable option. Two trigger modes, simple
Key trigger mode and Parallel CPU trigger mode facilitate different user interface. User selectable
triggering and output signal options provide maximum flexibility to various applications. Built-in
resistor controlled oscillator, 8-bit current mode D/A output and PWM direct speaker driving output
minimize the number of external components. PC controlled programmer and developing
software are available.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
S1 ~ S8
Input Trigger Pins:
- S1 to S8 are used to trigger the 32 Voice Groups in Key Mode.
- S1 to S5 together with SBT are used to trigger the 32 Voice Groups in CPU Parallel Mode.
- In OTP Programming Mode, S1 to S7 are used as program enable pins.
SBT
Input Trigger Pin:
- In Key Trigger Mode, this pin is trigger pin to trigger the playback of Voice Groups one by one
sequentially.
- In CPU Parallel Command Mode, this pin is used as address strobe to latch the input from S1 to
S5 and starts the voice playback.
- In OTP Programming Mode, this pin is used as PGM signal.
VDD and V33
Power Supply Pin for normal and programming operation
VSS
Power Ground Pin
VOUT1 and VOUT2
Digital PWM output pins which can drive speaker and buzzer directly for voice playback.
OSC
During voice playback, an external resistor is connected between this pin and the VDD pin to set
the sampling frequency. In OTP Programming Mode, this is the ACLK input signal.
VPP

In OTP Programming Mode, this pin is connected to a
OUT1 and OUT2
- In Key Trigger Mode and CPU Parallel Command Mode, these pins are user programmable pins
for the STOP pulse, BUSY and LED signals.
- During OTP programming, OUT1 serves as OEB while OUT2 serves as data IO.

VOICE SECTION COMBINATIONS
Voice files created by the PC base developing system are stored in the built-in EPROM of the
aP8942A chip as a number of fixed length Voice Blocks. Voice Blocks are then selected and
grouped into Voice Groups for playback. Up to 32 Voice Groups are allowed. A Voice Block
Table is used to store the information of combinations of Voice Blocks and then group them
together to form Voice Group.

Example of Voice Block Combination
Assume here we have three voice files, they are “How are You?”, Sound Effect and Music. Each
of the voice file is divided into a number of fixed length Voice Block and stored into the memory.
Voice File 1 - “How are You?” is stored in Voice Block B0 to B12.
Voice File 2 - Sound Effect is stored in Voice Block B13 to B15.
Voice File 3 - Music is Voice Block B16 to B40.
Voice Blocks are grouped together using Voice Table to form Voice Group for playback:

Voice Data Compression
Voice File data is stored in the on-chip EPROM as either 4-bit ADPCM or 8-bit PCM format.
Voice data stored as 4-bit ADPCM provides 2:1 data compression which can save 50% of memory
space. On the other hand, voice data are stored as 8-bit PCM format means no data compression is
employed but voice playback quality will be better.

Programmable Options
In both Key Trigger Mode and CPU Parallel Trigger Mode, user can select different trigger
functions and output signals to be sent out from the pins OUT1 and OUT2.
Options affect all Voice Group playback are called Whole Chip Options. Options only affect the
playback of individual Voice Group are called Group Options.

Ramp-up-down enable or disable:
When COUT is used for playback, Ramp-up-down should be enabled. This function
eliminates the ‘POP’ noise at the beginning and end of voice playback.
When VOUT1 and VOUT2 are used to drive speaker directly, Ramp-up-down should be
disabled.

TRIGGER MODES
There are two triggering modes available with aP8942A.
Key or CPU Trigger modes are determined by setting the EPORM programmable options during
voice data compilation.
Key Trigger Mode
With this trigger mode, up to 32 Voice Groups are triggered by setting S1 to S8 to HIGH or NC (not
connected) in different combinations. Each Voice Group can have its only independent trigger
options (See Fig. 4, 5, 7 and 8 for trigger options definition).
Voice Groups can also be triggered sequentially by setting SBT pin to HIGH.
CPU Parallel Trigger Mode
In this mode, S1 to S5 are set to HIGH or LOW according to the table above and followed by
setting the SBT input pin to HIGH, the corresponding Voice Group will be triggered.
Trigger options defined in Fig. 4, 5, 7 and 8 are valid for this mode.

Fig. 12 Using 4.5V Battery
Note 1: Two capacitors Cin and Cout must be connected from VDD and V33 pins to VSS to
stabilize the power supply to the chip. When small capacity battery, e.g. AG10, is
used, Cin and Cout may need to be as large as 22uF. However, if Cin and Cout is
too large, the power-up reset generated by 0.1uF at the RST pin may not be function
because it takes longer time for both Cin and Cout to discharge.
Note 2: 16 Ohm speaker will provide lauder and better sound quality when the VOUT speaker
direct drive is used.
Note 3: The value of the 390 Ohm base resistor should be modified according to different Vdd
value, the kind of speaker and NPN transistor.
Note 4: The VPP pin should be leave unconnected for playback.
