sbc codec library for reSpeaker Lite

arduino-libsbc

SBC, or low-complexity subband codec, is an audio subband codec specified by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) for the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP). SBC is a digital audio encoder and decoder used to transfer data to Bluetooth audio output devices like headphones or loudspeakers. It can also be used on the Internet. It was designed with Bluetooth bandwidth limitations and processing power in mind to obtain a reasonably good audio quality at medium bit rates with low computational complexity. As of A2DP version 1.3, the Low Complexity Subband Coding remains the default codec and its implementation is mandatory for devices supporting that profile, but vendors are free to add their own codecs to match their needs.

The current implementation can be found as part of many other projects. Unfortunately I did not find any stand alone library with only the codec, so I decided to create this project and make it Arduino compliant.

Installation

For Arduino, you can download the library as zip and call include Library -> zip library. Or you can git clone this project into the Arduino libraries folder e.g. with

cd  ~/Documents/Arduino/libraries
git clone https://github.com/limengdu/reSpeaker_Lite-libsbc

This has the advantage that you can easily get the latest code updates by just executing the command git pull

Documentation

I recommend to use this library together with my reSpeaker Lite Library. Further details can be found in the Seeed Studio reSpeaker Lite Wiki of the reSpeaker Lite Library. Last but not least here is also a link to the official SBC documentation
