Sensory Circuits have what you want I expect, it allows you to do
     voice record and playback!

     There is also software from Adavanced Recogbition Technologies that
     will allow you to do similar on the mirco itslef.

     Both products will also do voice recognition, although the accuracy is
     not up to much! Stick with the record/playback features only.

     If you need Voice Recognition, and have the processing power
     available, talk to a division of Motorolla called Lexicus.

     regards,
     Scott.

Hi at all.
Excuseme for my english .
I have a "Talking Calculator" and when I opened it , I see inside not a
real IC , like you can buy but a circuit  directly integrated on the pcb
that contain all function , memory, CPU, power state , etc. so I think
that' s not very simple to find a dedicate IC for what you want do to .
However i remember i saw on a electronic magazine a speech IC that just
contain  fonetic symbol digitalization , so you can select series of this
fonetic digitalization to compose what you want that IC says.
I don't remember esactly the name of chip now , i think "SPC-XXXXX" but
i'm not sure , but if i will find the magazine i send you the correct
name  .

        bye ...FRANCESCO LO CONTE
