SOMO-14D
Embedded Audio Module
Data Sheet
Description
The SOMO-14D is a tiny Audio-Sound module that
can play back pre-stored audio files such as voice
and music from a micro-SD memory card. The
module supports 4-bit ADPCM audio files ith
sample rates from !"h# up to $%"h#. &y usin' the
freely available softare tool( any )A*+,.av- or
MP$,.mp$- file can be easily converted to the
ADPCM,.ad4- format hich can then be can be
saved to a micro-SD memory card. The compact
.4pin drop-in-module takes up very minimal
board space and is ideal for any application that
re/uires embedded audio.
The module offers to modes of operation(
S+01A2-M3D+ and the "+4-M3D+.
The S+01A2-M3D+ provides a simple %-ire
interface to any micro-controller via its DATA and
C2" lines. Audio operations such as P2A4( PA5S+(
ST3P and *325M+ control functions are all
available to the host micro via simple serial
commands.
The "+4-M3D+ provides a stand alone operation
here a host micro is not re/uired. )ith only $
push buttons( a $* battery and a speaker( an
e6tremely compact and lo component count
MP$-Player like system can be implemented.
1n short( the S3M3 offers a very fle6ible( compact
and lo cost embedded audio solution for many
applications.

$. Operating Modes
The S3M3 module offers to modes of operation(
S+01A2-M3D+ and the "+4-M3D+. This section
describes both modes in detail.
$.1 S%&"A' MOD%
The S+01A2-M3D+ provides a simple %-ire
interface to any micro-controller. The host micro
communicates ith the module via the DATA and
C2" lines. =i'ure %.. belo outlines a typical set
up.
All commands are composed of sin'le ord ,.!
bit- data that must be clocked into the module in
a serial fashion ,most si'nificant bit first-. The
clock rate is appro6imately ;"h# hich lends itself
to even the sloest micro bit-ban'in' to 193
ports to achieve this simple communication.
Command Codes7
The S3M3 audio operations such as =12+
ADD0+SS( P2A4( PA5S+ and *325M+ control are all
available to the host micro-controller as .!-bit
command codes. Table. and Table% belo lists the

4. microSD Cards ) FAT1* Format
As mentioned previously( the S3M3 uses off the
shelf microSD memory cards
ith up to %<& capacity.
&efore the memory card can
be used it must first be
formatted ith =AT.!
option. The formattin' of
the card can be done on any
PC system ith a card reader. Select the
appropriate drive and choose the =AT.! ,or Fust
=AT in some systems- option hen formattin'. The
card is no ready to be used in the S3M3.
8OT%7 7 Certain brands of uSD memory cards may
not ork properly. This is evident by some files
that maybe skipped and not played by the S3M3.
