5.1 BOOSTXL-AUDIO BoosterPack Overview

BOOSTXL-AUDIO BoosterPack Plug-in Module can capture audio input from a microphone and output audio through an on-board speaker. The audio input/output lets developers experiment with the digital signal processing (DSP) and filtering capabilities of the microcontroller found on the attached development kit.

There are several options selectable by a jumper on the BoosterPack for connecting the speaker to the MCU. The following options are available for use with TM4C12x MCUs.

  • Output audio data over SPI to the SPI DAC provided on the Audio BoosterPack. DAC on the BoosterPack only supports 14 bits of resolution. Therefore, MCU will scale a 16-bit audio data to 14-bit.
  • Use MCU’s PWM output together with a basic R/C filter on the BoosterPack, to create a simple, low-cost analog audio signal.

When running examples that use PWM to emulate a DAC, the jumper must be placed to select PWM on the BoosterPack. When running examples that use SPI DAC, the jumper must be placed to select SPI DAC. Figure 5-1 shows the three jumper selections.
