Qwiic MP3 Trigger - DEV-19030 Problem

Qwiic System
1

I am a 1st time user of this module and am having trouble.

I have placed MP3 files named T001.mp3 - T012.mp3 on an 8 GB SD card and am using a headphone which I have verified is working.

When I attempt standalone mode powering the module via the USB port on my laptop, all I can hear is faint clicks when I ground a trigger pin. The power LED is illuminated.

In Arduino mode, I am using the 3.3v, ground, SCL and SDA pins on an Arduino Uno and have compiled and uploaded the example program Example1-PlaySong . The power LED does not illuminate and the Uno cannot find the module.

Am I missing something?

Hello, shouldn’t the INT pin be connected to the arduino too?

Thanks for the reply. Well, in the hookup guide, https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/qw … 1642780638, the INT is not touched for standalone mode and the arduino example only uses the QWIC connector which, I think, only uses VCC, GND, SDA and SCL. I’m willing to try to use the INT, but am not sure what I’m supposed to do with it in this case.
