... SoundPAL (#28825): Miniature Sound Player General Description The SoundPAL is a tiny module that plays canned and custom sound sequences completely self- contained, including a microcontroller for generating the sounds and a small speaker for producing them. The SoundPAL interfaces easily to a BASIC Stamp and can play sounds while the BASIC Stamp is busy with other chores ...

Installation Installation of the SoundPAL is a simple. If you’re using a system that incorporates three-pin servo headers (such as the BOE), just plug the SoundPAL into one of them. It has two three-conductor sockets to choose from for this ...

By installing a 3-pin header (included with the BOE-Bot Full Kit, p/n 28132) in one of the SoundPAL’s connectors, you can also use it with a wireless breadboard, as the following diagram illustrates: In lieu of the three-pin header, you ...
