MP3 Player Jukebox Kit
This pre-assembled PCB contains the electronics needed to play MP3 files from hard drives, CDROMs or compact flash cards. Just plug in a spare drive & power supply, put it in a project box, hook it to an amp, and you have a 10000 track MP3 player suitable for the car or home. Alternatively, use our compact flash adaptor with a 1GB+ card for a portable low-power solution.
The player provides a line-out signal, suitable for connecting to the auxiliary input of an amplifier or head-end unit. A high-resolution 24-bit DAC and dedicated decoder DSP produce a quality sound even at low bitrates.
The player also has some additional features, such as support for FAT16 or FAT32 file systems, ID3 tag support, and the ability to 'learn' different VCR and CD remote controls. There is also digital volume, bass and treble controls, shuffle play, and a directory navigator for playlist selection. The graphical LCD display shows all playback information on the screen at the same time.
