DESCRIPTION
Today’s consumers demand the best in audio/voice. They want crystal-clear sound wherever they
are in whatever format they want to use. APLUS delivers the technology to enhance a listener’s
audio/voice experience.
The aPR33A series are powerful audio processor along with high performance audio
analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs). The aPR33A series
are a fully integrated solution offering high performance and unparalleled integration with analog
input, digital processing and analog output functionality. The aPR33A series incorporates all the
functionality required to perform demanding audio/voice applications. High quality audio/voice
systems with lower bill-of-material costs can be implemented with the aPR33A series because of its
integrated analog data converters and full suite of quality-enhancing features such as sample-rate
convertor.
The aPR33A series C3.1 is Tape mode manages messages sequentially much like traditional
cassette tape recorders. Within tape mode two options exist, auto rewind and non-auto rewind.
Auto rewind mode configures the device to automatically rewind to the beginning of the message
immediately following recording or playback of the message. In tape mode, using either option,
messages must be recorded or played back sequentially, much like a traditional cassette tape
recorder specially designed for simple key trigger, user can record and playback the message.
Meanwhile, this mode provides the power-management system. Users can let the chip enter
power-down mode when unused. It can effectively reduce electric current consuming to 15uA and
increase the using time in any projects powered by batteries.

MESSAGE MODE
In tape message mode (C3.1), users can divide the memory sequentially much like traditional
cassette tape recorders. Within tape mode, there are two options - auto rewind and non-auto rewind
which will be applied by the /M7_Option pin.
Tape Mode using the Auto Rewind Option of record
The following fig. showed a typical record circuit for auto rewind mode. We add a slide-switch
between /REC pin and VSS, and add 2 tact-switches /M0_Tg, /M2_CE pin and VSS. When
the slide-switch fixed in VSS side and press /M0_TG tact switch, chip will start message
record and until the users release the tact-switch.
Note: After reset, /REC and /M0_Tg, /M2_/CE and /M7_Option pin will be pull-up to VDD by
internal resistor.
On power-up, the device is ready to record or playback from the first address of the memory
array. Send a falling edge to the /M0_Tg pin the device will beep once and start recording. A
subsequent rising edge to the /M0_Tg pin will stop recording & beep once. If the M0_Tg pin
is kept in low potential to the end of the memory, the recording will stop automatically & beep
once regardless of the state of the /M0_Tg pin. The device returns to the standby mode and
the /M0_Tg pin is returned to high. Please note the next recording operation will totally cover
all your previous messages. Your new recorded message will be your first message and your
original messages will be lost.

Tape Mode using the Auto Rewind Option of playback
The following fig. showed a typical playback circuit for auto rewind mode. We add a
slide-switch between /REC pin and VSS, and add 2 tact-switches /M0_Tg, /M2_CE pin and
VSS. When the slide-switch fixed in float side and press /M0_Tg pin, chip will start message
playback.
Note: After reset, /REC and /M0_Tg, /M2_/CE and /M7_Option pin will be pull-up to VDD by
internal resistor.
On power-up, beep twice and the device will be ready to playback from the first address of
memory array. Send a falling edge to the /M0_Tg pin to play the present message. During
the playback, send a falling edge to/M0_Tg pin then it will stop playing & beep once. After
stop playing, sending a falling edge to /M0_Tg pin again, it will start to play the next message.
After playing the last message, send a falling edge to /M0_Tg pin, and it will beep once to
remind you & auto-rewind to the first message. If /M0_Tg pin is kept in low potential
continually, the messages will be played to the last one & beep twice repeatedly. When
/M0_Tg pin is back to high potential, the beep voices stop and the message will be
auto-rewind to the first message.

Tape Mode using the Non-Auto Rewind Option of record
The following fig. showed a typical record circuit for non-auto rewind mode. We add a
slide-switch between /REC pin and VSS, and add 3 tact-switches /M0_Tg, /M1_Next,
/M2_CE pin and VSS. When the slide-switch fixed in Vss side and press /M0_Tg tact-switch ,
chip will start message record and until the users release the tact-switch. If you want to
record a new message, please press /M1_Next switch to go to the next section.
Note: After reset, /REC and /M0_Tg, /M1_Next, /M2_/CE and /M7_Option pin will be
pull-up to VDD by internal resistor.
On power-up, beep twice and the device is ready to record from the first address of memory
array. Send a falling edge to /M0_Tg pin and it will start recording & beep once. It must be
kept in low potential when recording. Send a rising edge to /M0_Tg pin and it will stop
recording & beep once. If /M0_Tg is kept in low potential and over the acceptable memory, it
will stop recording automatically & beep once. When /M0_Tg pin is rising in high potential,
the device will auto-rewind to the beginning place of the message & keep in standby mode to
wait for a new command. Please note the next recording operation will cover your original
message so the users have to send a falling edge to /M1_Next pin to let the device goes to
the next message to protect your original data.
This mode allows the users easily record a new message to cover the original message
unnecessarily triggering /M1_Tg pin. If you need to cover the other messages, send a falling
edge to /M2_CE pin to back to the beginning of the memory then send falling edges to
/M1_Next pin to the message that you want to be covered. When you cover this message, it
will be the last message. The original ones behind this message will be totally lost.

Note: After reset, /REC and /M0_Tg, /M1_Next, /M2_/CE and /M7_Option pin will be
pull-up to VDD by internal resistor.
On power-up, beep twice and the device will be ready to play from the first address of
memory array. Send a falling edge to /M0_Tg pin then it will play from the first message &
beep once. During the playback, if /M0_Tg pin receive the falling edge then it will stop
playback immediately. After stop playing, send a falling edge to /M0_Tg pin and it will play
the message from the beginning. If you keep /M0_Tg pin in low potential, this message will
loop playing. Send a falling edge to /M2_CE pin, beep once & go back to the first message to
wait for the next command.
Please note the mode only can play the present message. If you want to hear the next
message, you have to send a falling edge to /M1_Next pin to complete ( beep once ). When
arrive to the end of memory, sending a falling edge to /M0_Tg pin again, the device will beep
twice and go back to the first message to wait for a new command.

RESET
aPR33AX series can enter standby mode when RSTB pin drive to low. During chip in the standby
mode, the current consumption is reduced to ISB and any operation will be stopped, user also can
not execute any new operate in this mode.
The standby mode will continue until RSTB pin goes to high, chip will be started to initial, and
playback “beep” tone to indicate enter idle mode.
User can get less current consumption by control RSTB pin specially in some application which
concern standby current.
