MP3 is more advantageous than uncompressed audio (PCM), offering a much smaller size but without a noticeable loss in audio quality. This report will demonstrate decoding and playback of MP3 audio using a TLL5000 FPGA board.application/pdfengMP3Compressed audioAudioEmbedded systemFPGADecodingPlaybackPrototyping of MP3 decoding and playback on an ARM-based FPGA development boardthesis2010-11-22
