Required Materials
The Qwiic MP3 Trigger does need a few additional items for you to get started, shown below. However, you may
already have a few of these items, so feel free to modify your cart as necessary.
Note: If you want to add hardware connections for the triggers, you will probably some soldering equipment,
hook-up wire, and some momentary buttons. Additionally, if you wish to interface with the board using a
microcontroller, you should also grab a RedBoard Qwiic and some Qwiic cables.

If you aren’t familiar with the Qwiic system, we recommend reading here for an overview if you decide to use an
Arduino to control the Qwiic MP3 Trigger via I C.
Qwiic Connect System
Hardware Overview
Electrical Characteristics
The Qwiic MP3 Trigger is designed to operate at 3.3V and must not be powered above 3.6V as this is the
maximum operating voltage of microSD cards. The 5V power from the USB C connector tied to a robust AP2112
3.3V voltage regulator that can source up to 600mA for the board. Otherwise, the board can also be powered
through the Qwiic connector.
Maximum Operating Voltages
All I/O pins are 5V tolerant but the board must but powered at 3.3V.

Switch Basics
A tutorial on electronics' most overlooked and
underappreciated component: the switch! Here we
explain the difference between momentary and
maintained switches and what all those acronyms (NO,
NC, SPDT, SPST, ...) stand for.

communications protocols in use today.
How to Work with Jumper Pads and PCB Traces
Handling PCB jumper pads and traces is an essential
skill. Learn how to cut a PCB trace, add a solder
jumper between pads to reroute connections, and
repair a trace with the green wire method if a trace is
damaged.

All I/O pins are designed to function at 3.3V. The board consumes 35mA at 3.3V in standby and can consume
over 400mA when driving at 8 Ohm speaker at max volume.
Note: The Qwiic MP3 Trigger can be powered through either the USB C cable or the Qwiic connector when
used in conjunction with the RedBoard Qwiic. However, when using the Qwiic connection make sure that the
3.3V line can source enough current for the amplifier.
MP3 and ATtiny84
At the heart of the Qwiic MP3 Trigger is the WT2003S MP3 decoder IC. This IC reads MP3s from the microSD
card and will automatically mount the SD card as a jump drive if USB is detected. The ATtiny84A receives I C
commands and controls the MP3 decoder.
SD and USB
The SparkFun Qwiic MP3 Trigger works with 512MB to 32GB cards formatted in FAT32. We recommend the
SparkFun 1GB MicroSD Card because it’s a good mix of low-cost and good performance for MP3 playing.
2
The easiest way to add and remove MP3s to the Qwiic MP3 Trigger is to attach a USB C cable. This will
enumerate the microSD card as a jump drive making it extremely easy to access the files on the card.
Alternatively, if you don’t want to use USB, you can eject the microSD card and read/write to it using a normal USB
SD adapter.
Troubleshooting Tip: While USB is connected to a computer, MP3 playing is disable. However, as long as
D+/D- are not connected, you can power the board over USB from a USB wall adapter or power bank and
still use the Qwiic MP3 Trigger normally.
Note: If you are moving just a few MP3 files, the USB C cable will work perfectly fine. However, if you need to
move large amounts of data to the SD card, we suggest a normal USB SD adapter. The write speed to the
SD card through a USB C cable is slower than a few MBs per second.
Qwiic Connectors
The Qwiic MP3 Trigger from SparkFun includes two Qwiic connectors to make daisy chaining this music player
with a large variety of I C devices. Checkout Qwiic for your next project.
The I C pins broken out on the board are tied directly to the Qwiic connectors.
Audio Amplifier
The speaker is boosted by a Class-D mono amplifier capable of outputting up to 1.4W. What does 1.4W mean?
It’s incredibly loud; great for making sure your mech effects are heard on the *con floor (i.e. Comic - con, Def - con,
etc.) and wonderful for annoying your officemates. Both outputs have volume controlled by the SET_VOLUME
command and is selectable between 32 levels. Additionally, there are PTH holes beside both connectors if a
soldered connection is preferred.
Note: The volume can be adjusted in software using the SET_VOLUME 0x07 command (see Command Set
section). The volume setting is saved to NVM (non-volatile memory) and loaded at power on.

Audio Outputs
A standard 3.5mm audio jack is provided making it easy to play your tunes over headphones or amplified desktop
speakers like our Hamburger Speaker or any other amplifier.
A poke-home connector labeled Speaker is also provided in parallel to the 3.5mm jack. This is a friction fit type
connector; simply push stranded or solid core wire (22AWG or larger) into the hole and the connector will grip the
wire.
To use an external speaker, solder two wires onto the speaker and insert the wires into the poke home connector.

Jumpers
The Qwiic MP3 Trigger has three jumpers shown below:
The default 7-bit I C address of the Qwiic MP3 Trigger is 0x37 . The ADR jumper is open be default and can be
closed with solder to force the device’s I C address to 0x36 . This is handy if you need to have two Triggers on the
same bus. If you need more than two devices on the bus, or if these addresses conflict with another I C device the
address can be changed in software. Please see the Command Set.
Troubleshooting Tip: Closing the ADR jumper forces the device to I C address 0x36 regardless what the
user may have set via the SET_ADDRESS command.
Cutting the I C jumper will remove the 2.2k Ohm resistors from the I C bus. If you have many devices on your I C
bus you may want to remove these jumpers. Not sure how to cut a jumper? Read here!
The INT jumper is located below the SparkFun logo and connects a 10K pull-up resistor to the INT pin. If you have
multiple, open-drain, interrupt pins connected together you may want to remove this pull-up to better control the
pull-up resistance.
I/O Pins
There are several I/O pins broken out on the board, which are described in the table below.

Pin
Name
Type Description
RST Input Active low. Pull this pin low to reset the ATtiny84A, effectively resetting the Qwiic MP3
Trigger.
INT Output Active low. Goes low when track is finished playing. Goes high again when
CLEAR_INTERRUPTS command is issued.
SCL Input Serial clock line of I C interface. Qwiic MP3 Trigger does implement clock stretching and
will hold the clock line low if it is unable to receive additional I C data.
SDA Input/Output Serial data line of I C interface.
3.3V Power Qwiic MP3 Trigger can be powered from 2.8V to 3.3V. Anything greater than 3.6V will
damage the microSD card.
GND Power The ground pin.
Trigger
1-4
Input When a trigger pin is pulled to ground, the corresponding T00X.mp3 file is played. Pins
can be combined to play T001 to T010. Pins are 5V tolerant.
Triggers
There are four trigger pins at the top of the board. When pulled low these pins begin playing whatever file is
named T001.mp3 to T010.mp3 . For example, if you attach a momentary button to Pin 3 and GND, when you
press that button the T003.mp3 file will immediately be played. This allows you to start playing sound effects with
the touch of a button without any programming!
Single Trigger
For a basic triggered setup, load four files named T001.mp3, T002.mp3, T003.mp3, and T004.mp3 on the
microSD card. Use a wire or button to connect a trigger pin to ground and the associated track will begin playing.
Once you have the setup working, use any momentary button to allow a user to cause an MP3 to start playing.
Using Multiple Triggers
2

2
By pulling multiple pins down simultaneously the four triggers can play up to ten tracks: T001 to T010. When a
trigger pin is detected the pin values are added together. For example, pulling pins 2 and 4 low at the same time
will play track T006.mp3 as will pulling pins 1, 2, and 3 low at the same time.
Note:
The trigger pins are constantly monitored and any change in pins will immediately cause the new track
to begin playing.
Indefinitely holding a pin low will cause the same track to play again. This allows for looping sound
effects.
Interrupt Pin
The Qwiic MP3 Trigger has an INT pin which is configured as an open-drain pin with an on board 10K Ohm pull-
up.
The INT pin will go low when a track has stopped playing. Once the CLEAR_INTERRUPTS 0x0D command has
been received, the INT pin will become high-impedance and will return to a high level.
If you have multiple devices with bussed interrupt pins you may want to cut the INT jumper to remove the 10K
pull-up resistor.
Qwiic MP3 Trigger Library
Note: This section assumes you are using the latest version of the Arduino IDE on your desktop. If this is
your first time using Arduino, please review our tutorial on installing the Arduino IDE. If you have not
previously installed an Arduino library, please check out our installation guide.
The SparkFun Qwiic MP3 Trigger Arduino library demonstrates how to control all the features of the Qwiic MP3
Trigger. We recommend downloading the SparkFun library through the Arduino library manager by searching
‘SparkFun MP3 Trigger’. Alternatively you can grab the zip here from the GitHub repository:
SPARKFUN QWIIC MP3 TRIGGER ARDUINO LIBRARY (ZIP)
Once you have the library installed checkout the various examples.
Example1: Play the first MP3 track on the microSD card.
Example2: Play the next track on the microSD card.
Example3: Play a particular file. For example mp3.playFile(3); will play F003.mp3.
Example4: Stop and pause tracks.
Example5: Kitchen sink example showing setting of volume, equalizer, get song name, get song count, get
firmware version, etc.
Example6: Change the I C address of the MP3 Trigger. Allows multiple Triggers to live on the same I C
bus.
Example7: Shows how to start the library using a different Wire port (for example Wire1).
Example8: Demonstrates how to check for the end-of-song interrupt and begin playing the song again.
Command Set
The SparkFun Qwiic MP3 Trigger library takes care of all these commands for you. However, if you want to
implement your own interface, the following commands are available (see list below). The Qwiic MP3 Trigger uses
standard I C communication to receive commands and send responses. By default, the unshifted I C address of
the Qwiic MP3 Trigger is 0x37 . The write byte is 0x6E and the read byte is 0x6F .
Here is an example I C transaction showing how to set the volume level to 10:
Here is an example I C transaction showing how to read the device ID (0x39):
The following commands are available:
STOP 0x00 - Stops any currently playing track
PLAY_TRACK 0x01 [TRACKNUMBER] - Play a given track number. For example 0x01 0x0A will play the 10th
MP3 file in the root directory.
PLAY_FILENUMBER 0x02 [FILENUMBER] - Play a file # from the root directory. For example 0x02 0x03 will
play F003.mp3.
PAUSE 0x03 - Pause if playing, or starting playing if paused
PLAY_NEXT 0x04 - Play the next file (next track) located in the root directory
PLAY_PREVIOUS 0x05 - Play the previous file (previous track) located in the root directory
SET_EQ 0x06 [EQ_SETTING] - Set the equalization level to one of 6 settings: 0 = Normal, 1 = Pop, 2 =
Rock, 3 = Jazz, 4 = Classical, 5 = Bass. Setting is stored to NVM and is loaded at each power-on.
SET_VOLUME 0x07 [VOLUME_LEVEL] - Set volume level to one of 32 settings: 0 = Off, 31 = Max volume.
Setting is stored to NVM and is loaded at each power-on.
GET_SONG_COUNT 0x08 - Returns one byte representing the number of MP3s found on the microSD
card. 255 max. Note: Song count is established at power-on. After loading files on the SD card via USB be
sure to power-cycle the board to update this value.
GET_SONG_NAME 0x09 - Returns the first 8 characters of the file currently being played. Once the
command is issued the MP3 Trigger must be given 50ms to acquire the song name before it can be queried
with an I C read.
GET_PLAY_STATUS 0x0A - Returns a byte indicating MP3 player status. 0 = OK, 1 = Fail, 2 = No such
file, 5 = SD Error.
GET_CARD_STATUS 0x0B - Returns a byte indicating card status. 0 = OK, 5 = SD Error. Once the
command is issued the MP3 Trigger must be given 50ms to acquire the card status before it can be queried
with an I C read.
GET_VERSION 0x0C - Returns two bytes indicating Major and Minor firmware version.
CLEAR_INTERRUPTS 0x0D - Clears the interrupt bit.
