Hardware Overview
How does it work?
BT Audio 3 Click is based on the BM83 SoC, a fully certified Bluetooth v5.0 stereo audio module with high-performing voice and audio post-processing capability for Bluetooth audio applications from Microchip. Based on an onboard Bluetooth stack and audio profile design, the module supports 24-bit/96kHz audio. Integrated IS2083 dual-mode audio IC features Digital Signal Processor (DSP) that decodes AAC and SBC codecs and executes advanced audio and voice processing, such as Wide-Band (WB) speech Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) and Noise Reduction (NR). More information on the many features and characteristics of the module itself can be found on the official website of the Microchip BM83 module. The BM83 module provides an I2S digital audio interface configured in Master mode to connect with the external DSP, the AK4430. In this mode, the BM83 serves as a master to provide clock and frame synchronous signals for the master/slave data synchronizations. The master clock output is delivered to an external I2S device (AK4430) to drive its system clock and save crystal costs. The BM83 module receives audio from the smartphone via its PCB antenna and then forwards it to an external speaker via the AK4430,
connected to the LINE OUT connector. The AK4430 supports Mute operation accessible through the SM pin routed to the AN pin on the mikroBUS™ socket and two audio data interface formats, MSB-first or I2S format, selectable via SMD jumper labeled as OUT SET, by positioning it to an appropriate position marked as 1 or 0. This Click board™ also has an onboard digital MEMS microphone, the SPH0641LU4H-1, populated on the bottom side of the board. The MEMS microphone enables an expansive sound range from audible frequency to ultrasonic (100Hz - 80kHz). Even though it is placed on the bottom side, with the help of the top side opening marked with MIC, an uninterrupted flow of sound to the microphone is enabled. Also, microphone data processing selection via SMD jumper labeled as MIC SEL is possible by positioning it to an appropriate position marked as 1 or 0, on which clock edge data will be asserted or latched. The BM83 communicates with MCU using the UART interface with commonly used UART RX and TX pins. It operates at 115200 bps by default configuration to transmit and exchange data with the host MCU. In addition to interface pins, this Click board™ also uses a Reset pin, RST pin on the
mikroBUS™ socket, MOD pin routed to the INT pin of the mikroBUS™ socket used to enter Test Mode during reset, and MFB pin routed to the PWM pin of the mikroBUS™ socket used for BM83 Wake-Up feature. Also, this Click board™ comes with several audio control buttons, such as volume up/down, rewind/forward, play/pause, and one multifunction button, as well as with two additional LED indicators, blue and red LEDs labeled LED1 and LED2 used for optional user-configurable visual indication. Even though this board uses both mikroBUS ™ power rails, this Click board ™ can only be operated with a 3.3V logic voltage level, selectable through a VBAT SEL jumper, which allows power supply by 3V3 or external battery. 5V is only used for the internal adapter to charge the battery in battery-powered applications. The board must perform appropriate logic voltage level conversion before using MCUs with different logic levels. However, the Click board ™ equipped comes equipped with a library containing functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
Features overview
Development board
EasyPIC v8 is a development board specially designed for the needs of rapid development of embedded applications. It supports many high pin count 8-bit PIC microcontrollers from Microchip, regardless of their number of pins, and a broad set of unique functions, such as the first-ever embedded debugger/programmer. The development board is well organized and designed so that the end-user has all the necessary elements, such as switches, buttons, indicators, connectors, and others, in one place. Thanks to innovative manufacturing technology, EasyPIC v8 provides a fluid and immersive working experience, allowing access anywhere and under any
circumstances at any time. Each part of the EasyPIC v8 development board contains the components necessary for the most efficient operation of the same board. In addition to the advanced integrated CODEGRIP programmer/debugger module, which offers many valuable programming/debugging options and seamless integration with the Mikroe software environment, the board also includes a clean and regulated power supply module for the development board. It can use a wide range of external power sources, including a battery, an external 12V power supply, and a power source via the USB Type-C (USB-C) connector.
Communication options such as USB-UART, USB DEVICE, and CAN are also included, including the well-established mikroBUS™ standard, two display options (graphical and character-based LCD), and several different DIP sockets. These sockets cover a wide range of 8-bit PIC MCUs, from the smallest PIC MCU devices with only eight up to forty pins. EasyPIC v8 is an integral part of the Mikroe ecosystem for rapid development. Natively supported by Mikroe software tools, it covers many aspects of prototyping and development thanks to a considerable number of different Click boards™ (over a thousand boards), the number of which is growing every day.

Application Output via UART Mode
1. Once the code example is loaded, pressing the "FLASH" button initiates the build process, and programs it on the created setup.
2. After the programming is completed, click on the Tools icon in the upper-right panel, and select the UART Terminal.
3. After opening the UART Terminal tab, first check the baud rate setting in the Options menu (default is 115200). If this parameter is correct, activate the terminal by clicking the "CONNECT" button.
4. Now terminal status changes from Disconnected to Connected in green, and the data is displayed in the Received data field.

Code example
This example can be found in NECTO Studio. Feel free to download the code, or you can copy the code below.
/*!
* @file main.c
* @brief BT Audio 3 Click Example.
*
* # Description
* This example demonstrates the use of BT Audio 3 click board by reading the commands
* received from remote device and performing adequate actions accordingly.
*
* The demo application is composed of two sections :
*
* ## Application Init
* Initializes the driver and configures the click board.
*
* ## Application Task
* Reads all the received events and parses them.
*
* ## Additional Function
* - static err_t btaudio3_event_handler ( btaudio3_t *ctx ) - This function handles SPP data event
* and several BTM state events added in. The other events will just be displayed on the USB UART in hex format.
*
* @note
* We have used the Serial Bluetooth Terminal smartphone application for the test.
* A smartphone and the click board must be paired in order to exchange messages
* with each other. So make sure to pair your device with the click board and
* connect it to using the Serial Bluetooth Terminal application, then you will be able
* to send commands listed below.
