Circuit Documentation

Summary

This document provides a detailed overview of a circuit that integrates an Adafruit PDM Microphone with an Arduino UNO microcontroller. The circuit is designed to capture audio signals using the PDM microphone and process them with the Arduino UNO. The microphone is powered by the 3.3V output from the Arduino and communicates with the microcontroller via a clock signal and a data line.

Component List

Adafruit PDM Mic

  • Description: A digital microphone that captures sound and converts it to a pulse density modulated (PDM) digital signal.
  • Pins: VDD, GND, SELECT, CLK, DATA

Arduino UNO

  • Description: A microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P, widely used for building digital devices and interactive objects that can sense and control objects in the physical and digital world.
  • Pins: UNUSED, IOREF, Reset, 3.3V, 5V, GND, Vin, A0-A5, SCL, SDA, AREF, D0-D13

Wiring Details

Adafruit PDM Mic

  • VDD: Connected to the 3.3V pin on the Arduino UNO to provide power.
  • GND: Connected to the GND pin on the Arduino UNO to establish a common ground.
  • SELECT: Not connected in this circuit.
  • CLK: Connected to the D3 pin on the Arduino UNO to provide a clock signal.
  • DATA: Connected to the A0 pin on the Arduino UNO to transmit audio data.

Arduino UNO

  • 3.3V: Provides power to the Adafruit PDM Mic.
  • GND: Common ground for the circuit.
  • D3: Receives the clock signal from the Adafruit PDM Mic.
  • A0: Receives the audio data from the Adafruit PDM Mic.

Documented Code

Arduino UNO Code (sketch.ino)

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:

}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

}

This code provides the basic structure for the Arduino sketch. The setup() function is intended to contain initialization code that runs once when the microcontroller is powered on or reset. The loop() function is designed to contain the main logic of the program, which runs repeatedly as long as the Arduino is powered.

Currently, the code does not include specific functionality for interacting with the Adafruit PDM Mic. To complete the circuit's functionality, code that initializes the microphone, reads the PDM data, and processes the audio signal should be added to the setup() and loop() functions, respectively.
