1.Can external memory be used when the required time exceeds 120 seconds?
Yes, the chip automatically mounts external memory upon power-up, with external priority over internal.
Megaphone (Handheld Bullhorn)
A megaphone (handheld bullhorn) is a portable voice amplification device. It works by capturing the human voice through a microphone, processing it via audio chip algorithms, and driving a speaker to amplify sound for long-distance transmission. This solution is based on the M216A4 chip, supporting 48K high-definition amplification, recording loop playback, alarm sound effects, and other functions. It is widely used in handheld megaphones, amplification speakers, voice prompt devices, and recording broadcast speakers.
