Abstract
A method and circuit for generating speech and DTMF tones in a hand-held dialer which includes a memory for storing predetermined speech and tone signal data and a speech processor for selectively retrieving a sequence of the predetermined speech and tone signal data stored in the memory. The selection of the stored data is based on the selections made by the dialer user. The selected data is output through a loudspeaker to dial a selected telephone number and to vocalize a selected message to the user and/or to the dialed party.
