Documents and technical manuals...

When designing an MP3 player, you need to read up on all sorts of technical standards and documents. There are many different ways to design an MP3 player and I've provided all sorts of useful and relevant info that you can use.

Such info as

  • inplementing an IDE (CD-ROM) interface
  • retrieving MP3 data from a PC parallel port
  • working with communication signals (I2C)

Any new docs that not here or dead links please email me megacmk@hotmail.com

Mp3d.zip Code that allows you to output an MP3 file (in real time) out the PC Parallel Port in serial format compatible to the MAS3507D.

Code was distributed by IMB Electronics.

Mp3dv2.zip This is a modified version of MP3D (above). This modified version allows the user to specify a delay value which will slow down the rate at which the MP3 song is sent through the parallel port. Many users who used this program experienced "skipping" on different songs... this modofied version has the potential to emilimate that.
