Introduction to the MSP50C614
The MSP50C614 (C614) is a low cost, mixed signal controller, that combines
a speech synthesizer, general-purpose I/O, onboard ROM, and direct
speaker-drive in a single package. The computational unit utilizes a powerful
new DSP which gives the C614 unprecedented speed and computational
flexibility compared with previous devices of its type. The C614 supports a
variety of speech and audio coding algorithms, providing a range of options
with respect to speech duration and sound quality.
