Module Interfaces
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| Speaker | 8Ω / 0.25W direct drive |
| Power | DC 4.5V (3× button cells) via battery holder |
| Power Control | Insulation tab to disconnect battery |
| Playback Mode | Light‑sensitive: plays when light is detected (e.g., opening a card) |

The module uses a simple light sensor to trigger playback. When the card is opened (light hits the sensor), the audio plays continuously until the light is removed or the battery runs out.
Content Update Process
- Create audio files – use the online platform (WT588F) to upload WAV (≤16kHz mono) or MP3 (≤24kHz).
- Generate .bin file – assign audio to address 0001H and synthesize the firmware.
- Connect USB downloader – plug the downloader into your computer; a drive appears (format once).
- Copy .bin file – drag the generated .bin file into the drive.
- Connect to module – wire the downloader to the module’s download port (CS, DO, DI, CLK, GND, VDD).
- Press download button – the downloader will program the module; status LEDs indicate success (OK) or failure (NG).
The included USB downloader (V2.00) supports drag‑and‑drop file copying, making mass production easy.
