I2S built-in ADC/DAC Example


  • This is an example of:
    • Recording sound from ADC
    • Replay the recorded sound via DAC
    • Play an audio file in flash

  • Run this example
    • Set partition table to "partitions_adc_dac_example.csv" in menuconfig, or rename sdkconfig.default to sdkconfig directly.
    • Set IDF_PATH and run "make flash"

  • This example will execute the following steps:
    1. Erase flash
    2. Record audio from ADC and save in flash
    3. Read flash and replay the sound via DAC
    4. Play an example audio file(file format: 8bit/8khz/single channel)
    5. Loop back to step 3

  • Hardware connection:
    ESP32 Microphone + amplifier amplifier + speaker
    GPIO36(ADC1CH0 input) data output pin
    GPIO25(DAC1 output) right channel speaker input
    GPIO26(DAC2 output) left channel speaker input

  • How to generate audio files:

    • tools/generate_audio_file.py is an example of generate audio table from .wav files.
    • In this example, the wav file must be in 16k/16bit mono format.
    • generate_audio_file.py will bundle the wav files into a single table named audio_example_file.h
    • Since the ADC can only play 8-bit data, the script will scale each 16-bit value to a 8-bit value.
    • Since the ADC can only output positive value, the script will turn a signed value into an unsigned value.

  • Note:
    • DAC can only play 8-bit data, so the wav file data are scaled to 8-bit data.
    • I2S DMA can only output 16-bit/32-bit data to DAC, DAC will only take the highest 8-bit data and output accordingly.
    • Before I2S DMA can output data stream to DAC, the data format should be converted to 16-bit or 32-bit by padding zeros.
