1. Introduction

This document provides step-by-step introductions on setting up the Synaptics AudioSmart®2-Mic

Development Kit for Amazon™ AVS. This document describes how to make the necessary hardware

connections, install the driver, flash the firmware (only when needed), set up the Amazon Alexa™ Voice Service

(AVS), and switch between the keyword detection (voice trigger) modes.

1.1. Target Audience

This document is intended for manufacturers and developers for creating Smart Home device prototypes that

use the Synaptics AudioSmart 2-Mic Development Kit and the Raspberry Pi 3 (RPi3) (not provided with the kit)

to offer an ideal Voice Control experience via Amazon’s Alexa Voice Service.

Figure 5

Connections for CX20921 evaluation board and Mic board (with 2-mic attached)

1. Connect the 3.5 mm audio jack on the RPi3 (J7) to LINEIN on the CX20921 evaluation board (J25).

2. Connect audio jack (J3) (Line Out labeled as HP) on the CX20921 evaluation board to a powered

speaker.

3. Connect the microphone module to the CX20921 evaluation board (J19).

a. Spacing between the left MIC and right MIC should be set to 55 mm with the preloaded

configuration (see Figure 4).

b. Software tool (FCP Essential) will be provided for mic distance adjustment between 30 mm –

120 mm.

4. Connect the audio path from micro USB (J1) to USB port on RPi3.
