An embedded rust project to generate CTCSS-Tones via PDM on a cheap RP2040 board. Due to PDM (aka Delta-Modulation) a simple rc-filter is sufficient for DA-conversation. (eg. 100Ω/3.3µF if not using 1750Hz option or 100Ω/470nF otherwise) Prefer tantalum caps for better switching supression.
Board used is a Seeed Studio XIAO RP2040. When using a Pi-Pico, just use the corresponding I/O-pins (Px) there.
- Use rotary encoder to select wanted frequency.
- Press button short for on/off toggling.
- Press long to store current setting.
- With 1750Hz call-tone option on this frequency short button push just emmits a one second sine pulse and is quiet otherwise.
