Description

  • The Wireless Doorbell Workshop is a software development platform for wireless doorbell applications.
  • Users can easily complete a wireless doorbell application solution by editing ringtone or voice data setting functional parameters through the development platform, and downloading them to the wireless doorbell development system that Holtek has already developed, thus saving the lengthy program development time.
  • The wireless doorbell system includes an RF transmitter and an RF receiver. The transmitter has two functional combination schemes: (RF IC + Key) and (RF IC + PIR).
  • The receiver is a wireless doorbell module, that integrates (RF IC + Voice OTP MCU), which also includes power control, keys, an LED indicator, a speaker, and programming device connection interfaces.
  • Both the RF IC and the Voice OTP MCU programs have been developed and programmed by Holtek.
  • The user only needs to edit the ringtone select the function corresponding to the keys, and download the data to the Voice OTP MCU internal Flash Memory through the development platform.
  • There is no need to perform any program development, which greatly reduces the product development time.
