If you want to start simply, you can produce a musical note with a piezo transducer (e.g. Radio Shack part number 273-073). Connect the positive lead of the piezo to Vdd and the negative lead to a PIC output pin (or vice versa I suppose). Toggle the state of the pin at twice the desired note's frequency (you could use a timer/interrupt routine or PWM to do this). You may want to take a look at the article "Low-cost techniques for sound generation" on embedded.com (http://www.embedded.com/story/OEG20030512S0079) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
