Block diagram for PIC based mp3 player

[skimask]

Hi,
I got this link http://www.teuthis.com/html/daisy_mp3.html. Using PIC18F45j10 and codes in C.
Is it possible PBP can do the task? I know it's gonna be a challenge for me to learn this but I know It can be done one step at a time.


Thanks,
Joe

But as sparky said there a couple of posts ago, the real work is done (in my case) with the STA013. The only thing the PIC does is move the data around as needed, handle the keypad, the lcd, battery management, IR receiver, RF receiver, hard drive/compact flash management, and the USB hookup is offloaded to the FTDI chip.... All the PIC is doing is directing traffic.
PBP and normal 'PICs' don't have the horsepower to do real time MP3 decoding...MAYBE at VERY low bit rates, but I'd doubt it. The dsPICs, maybe the PIC24 and/or the PIC32 could handle decoding MPEG data real time, but again, good luck with writing the code to do the decoding in straight PBP.
