## Plan
|
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Test speaker without Arduino
|
|
|
|
|
- can be done by using a function generator and 3.3V square wave
|
|
|
|
|
with variable frequency
|
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Write AVR C code to generate a square wave of varying frequency
|
|
|
|
|
via Timer1
|
|
|
|
|
- Timer1 is used so that a pre-scalar and its calculations don't
|
|
|
|
|
need to be done
|
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Use a table/array that stores frequencies and the indices correspond to
|
|
|
|
|
the buttons on the sound board
|
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Create buffers to add recording/saving/playing functionality
|
|
|
|
|
- the buffers are a sequence of notes (which are the indices of the previous
|
|
|
|
|
table) that is terminated by some other byte
|
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Figure out how the LCD in the starter kit is programmed
|
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Show the current and surrounding notes in the currently selected buffer
|
|
|
|
|
(or the note of the soundboard button that was just pressed)
|
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Add a menu on the second row to select the memory buffer (maybe 1-5)
|
|
|
|
|
- it is controlled by left and right buttons
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

## 2024-03-30
|
|
|
|
|
- the speaker was tested with a function generator (from the
|
|
|
|
|
EspoTek Labrador) outputting a square wave of varying frequency
|
|
|
|
|
- it is painful above a frequency of 12 kHz and just creates clicks
|
|
|
|
|
below 30 Hz
|
|
|
|
|
- it is louder at certain frequencies and quieter at others, and this
|
|
|
|
|
is not a linear relationship
|
|
|
|
|
- the speaker's datasheet has a graph of this which can be used to
|
|
|
|
|
adjust the speaker's volume at the problematic frequencies
