(...) It sounds like the NXT probably doesn't have enough power available to run that chip, but you might look at using a BUC (Boost-Up Converter) component to bring the 4.3V supply up to a higher level? I've only been peripherally involved with (...) (18 years ago, 5-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Yes, but unfortunately the 9V sensor supply is limited to 15mA just like the RCX sensor supply. Not easy to power a module that consumes 80mA... Philo (18 years ago, 5-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) That would be the LOWSPEED_9V flag? (...) I just might do that. (...) The chip used in the book I have is the SpeakJet (URL) It's a LOT cheaper than the sp03, however, it uses a serial interface and would be a lot more complicated. I'd have to (...)

The NXT can also optionally apply 9V to I2C sensors on the same input/wire that is used for reading the analog values. There's a flag to set this up. I know it is accessible in RobotC and I think you should also be able to set it up via NBC. SO (...) (18 years ago, 5-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hi Tony, (...) Nice little beast! (...) Most probably it should work. I am a bit more concerned about current consumption (80mA - not 80mAH as shown in documentation!), since the 4.3V supply can deliver 180mA for ALL seven NXT ports. You may also (...)
