It doesn't mean 32bit, it means that the timer load value is "32".
You can simply write it to the port (32 bit write)

Vogtinator,

I am fairly new to programming , and the only languages that I've had experience with are Java and the Arduino's language. I managed to make a capacitive-sensor piano with the Arduino, but it is rather clunky. I realized that the Ti-inspire calculator already has a built-in keypad and that I might be able to play tones with the nspire. I was wondering if you have any directions, tips, or references that would help me with this project. Also, should I be using Assembly or Lua? I would also like to mention that in the future, I would like to add a synthesizer as well, where I might be able to use waveform equations to creates the timbre and/or the ability to draw the wave. Any information that you could give me would be helpful!

Sincerely,
InvX

Hi InvX,

"pwmtest" is written in ARM assembler and C ("the Arduino's language"), so you have to learn them to fully understand and work with pwmtest.
You have to setup your calc as usual (solder to a dock pin or connect to it in a different way) before you can try pwmtest.
There is a fairly high-level API exposed by audio.c you can use to play your synthesized tones.

Thanks, this helps me out a lot!  ;D

One more thing; would it be possible to remove the static from the audio? Maybe with some kind of low-pass filter?

Some part of it, yes. It only has 8 bit resolution (I tried 9 and even 10 bit, didn't work out well) so you won't get rid of the resulting inaccuracies.

Where do your common.h and os.h libraries come from?

common.h and os.h used to be in the SDK. After the Newlib transition, they are no longer used, although there is an os.h for compatibility. You'll have to figure out what to replace them with, I personally haven't looked at this code.

Awesome!

A suggestion. You might want to use a capacitor to couple the audio from the pin. Then, a low impedance load won't adversely affect the calculators' operation.
Try a 0.1 uf ceramic capacitor. 50 volt rating is fine. You can use a poly cap too.

The signal might be low, but a small amp (LM386) would bring the level up and allow you to drive a speaker.

I hope this helps.
