VSIDE DSP Library for VS1005, VS1063, VS1053, VS1003, VS1103

Post by Henrik »

It is with greatest pleasure I present to you our brand-new VSIDE DSP Library for several of our audio ICs!

The library, along with its documentation, helps in designing and implementing linear FIR filters. To design filters, the free mathematics tool GNU Octave is used. Included in the package is a GNU Octave function that converts FIR filters to highly optimized VSDSP source code. VSIDE example solutions are provided.

Supported ICs are:
  • VS1005, also VS1205 and VS8005 variants
  • VS1063, also VS1163 and VS8063 variants
  • VS1053, also VS8053 variant
  • VS1003
  • VS1103
Because this is the very first version, some hiccups are expected, particularly with installation of GNU Octave over various Windows versions, so feedback and questions are welcome!

Kind regards,
- Henrik

Hello!

There is a bug in the SigPros1005 example. It excpects to find a .h file that does not yet exist in the current official release of VSIDE.

To compile the example, replace the following line:

Code: Select all

#include <aucommon.h>
with

Code: Select all

#include <audiofs.h>
Then the project will compile.

Kind regards,
- Henrik

[EDIT 2015-10-12: VSIDE now contains <aucommon.h> so no need to do this anymore]

Thanks for this - very good.
I'd like to just use the FIR filter with my own (normalised) coefficients.
Is it possible to do that or do I need to write my own code?

Also I use Matlab rather than Octave.
The fir2vsdsp.m file does not run under Matlab.
I started to install Octave but it was taking forever so just edited the code to make it Matlab friendly.

Here is the resultant code. No guarantees of accuracy. It could run all the tutorial examples OK but there might be a bug or two left in there. But at least it is a good start.

Code: Select all

function bIntOut=fir2vsdsp(b,bits,upsampleBy,downsampleBy,varargin)
% fir2vsdsp(B,BITS,UPSAMPLEBY,DOWNSAMPLEBY,...);
%   Creates C code for a BITS-bit filter NAME that first upsamples
%   data by UPSAMPLEBY, then filters with Fir filter B, then
%   downsamples by DOWNSAMPLEBY. Prints the filter structure as C code.
%   VS1005 header file <fir.h> contains definitions required for running
%   the filters.
%
% Returns:
%   The vector B rounded to the accuracy that could be represented by its
%   internal integer accuracy.
%
% Parameters:
%   B - Fir filter
%   BITS - Number of bits. Currently only 16 is supported.
%   UPSAMPLEBY - How many times to upsample before filtering
%   DOWNSAMPLEBY - How many times to downsample after filtering
%   ... - Varargs options may contain some of the following fields:
%   NAME - Name of the filter. If more than 1 channels are required,
%      many names can be specified. There must be at least one name.
%   '-split' - If defined in the argument list, make a split filter
%      that outputs twice the input data (e.g. low-pass and high-pass path).
%   '-rate',FS - If defined, followed by FS, the samplerate of the source
%      signal.
%      Example: fir2vsdsp(b,16,2,3,'myFilter','-rate',48000). In this case
%      a frequency response of the filter is plotted. If a split filter,
%      frequency response of both paths is plotted.
%   '-magnify' - Show Y scale of -2 to 2 dB instead of the default.
%   '-file',NAME - Write source code to file NAME.c and NAME.h.
%   '-append' - If writing to a file, append the code the files instead of
%      creating the files.

Hello tsardoz,

and wow! That looks like a very useful conversion! I don't currently have access to Matlab but I believe your code will be immensely useful for anyone using it! In time, I'll have to see whether the changes you have made could be made Octave compatible, because if that could be achieved, we could have best of both worlds.

Again, huge thanks!

Kind regards,
- Henrik

Hi Henrik.

Unfortunately, also using the documentation I cannot use remez.

It is unrecognised even if I copied the right original folders and file into my cygwin home folder

Is there something I forgot or some well-known missing procedures in octave installation?

Lorenzo.

You haven't loaded the signal package to octave because remez is part of it.

Install octave package signal and pkg load signal
