ISD1700 help !!

Hi,

I did the circuit opn page 16 yes, without the two optional part on pin 17 and 27. I used an 8 ohm speaker I bought for this experiment. As for the grounds, I used all the same ground. I did not know how to create different ground with a single power source.
thanks

Are you able to do an ERASE?

What value is the resistor you are using for Rosc on pin 20?

What does the LED do when you try to use the various functions?

I dont know about erase, I dont hear comprehemble sounds, I will run some tests with the led tonight and will let you know my findings then.

Here is the application note:

Right now, do not worry about sounds. Let us get the basic pushbutton functions to work by watching the LED.

I hold down record and the led stays on until I unpress it. when I click on play there is a fast beeping, if I keep pushing on play, then I just hear multiple beeping and no led is turned on. when I click on erase the led flashes twice. when I hold down erase, the led flashes about 7 times.

I was once able to record and hear myself with a lot of noise. but I cannot reproduce this.

I forgot to mention that the led do not get lit when I click on any other button then the one mentioned above.

Hi Russ,
I was wondering if you could give me some advice on the 1700 series audio chips.
I have built a couple of proto crcuits using surface mount isd1740's in push button mode to start with. I can record, fast forward and play with out any problem.
I would like some tips on how to remove the pops at the start and end of the recording, along with the back ground hiss. Such as circuit design and layout to enable me to get the best from these chips. I have added a lm386 audio amp using an old winbond application sheet. I have both the main application sheets.

Any help to be very much appreciated.

kind regards Nick

P.s If any other forum members have some advice I would be please to hear from you too.
