Embedded MP3 modules made in Germany
Fallguy ULTRA MP3 module
Universal embedded MP3 module with 3 serial High-Speed interfaces
The Fallguy ULTRA MP3 module (Article-No.0132) is an universal and compact embedded module for playing compressed audio data (MP3). The MP3 module was designed for use in embedded systems and for integration in customer specific environment. It is a versatile audio module for working in rough industrial applications.
The module is equipped with a SD-card slot for using with SD cards type SD or SDHC.
Controlling the module could be done either by buttons, digital and analog inputs or via the different serial interfaces. A connection for additional electronic to connect to a RS232-, RS485- or LAN-network (XPORT), as well as to a LC-display is provided.
The internal firmware of the module could be adapted to the customer needs. The playback behaviour is defined through the programmed firmware.
