It is suitable for: - aP23682 aP23341 aP23170 aP23085 ( 682 sec, 2 I/O chip) – SOP8 ( 341 sec, 2 I/O chip) – SOP8 ( 170 sec, 2 I/O chip) – SOP8 ( 085 sec, 2 I/O chip) – SOP8 This development system serves three main functions: Compiler – to create a dp2 file from user’s Voice files Writer – to program the dp2 file into the aP23xx chip Copier – connect DC 5V adaptor for 1 to 1 programming The Compiler is used to combine the edited voice files into the chip to form the desired Voice Group and to define the playback functions of each Voice Group by selecting different Options and Trigger Modes of each individual Voice Group. The Writer is used to program the voice data into the aP23xx devices that resulted from the Compiler Function. A Writer Board connected to the PC via USB port is required. The Copier is using the compiled *.dp2 which loads to writer then disconnect the USB and connect the DC 5V for 1 pcs copying.

Page 7 of 22 9/18/2015 Integrated Circuits Inc. aP23KWC8S - USB Writer User Guide Example for Compiler : 1. Select the IC body is [aP23085 - 8Pin]. 2. Select [Key Mode] to be our trigger mode. 3. Select the voice output is [PWM]. 4. Click Add-Wav to pick your required folder. 5. After confirming the folder, click the button. 6. All wav files in the folder will be listed here. Page 8 of 22 9/18/2015 Integrated Circuits Inc. aP23KWC8S - USB Writer User Guide 7. Show all your required *.wav files. Double click .wav files you required in f, they will be showed in g. 7a. It will show the memory size you has been used. (Please note the data size you loaded can’t exceed the body’s memory). *** Please note the data size you loaded can’t exceed the body’s memory. If so, there are some ways to solve this problem: 1). Change it to a bigger memory size body. ex: aP23085-8Pin to aP23341-8Pin. 2). Compressed the wav files to decrease the memory size. ex: from PCM16 to PCM8. 3). Delete some required voice files. 8. If wav file is too big, we can choose compressing files to decrease their sizes. (UALW8 compress wav file to 8bits, PCM8 compress wav file to 8bits, ADPCM compress wav file to 4bits). *** Please note if your original voice is 16bits wav file which need to be compressed to 8 bits, We suggest you choose ULAW would be better. 9.
