Programming a real-time audio processing algorithm to an LPCXpresso54608 MCU to implement a visualizer and
equalizer using embedded audio CODEC functionality and an ARM Cortex-M4 processor core
Generate C code to control CPU clock-management and memory allocation for an embedded microcontroller
Utilize KEIL uVision5 IDE to program and debug generated C code to process incoming signals to the SPH0641LM4H
digital mic using ARM ping-pong buffers, FFT, and Systick interrupt functions and algorithms

The project involved a combination of hardware and software to build a device that generates an audio tone by changing
the light intensities incident upon two OP906 photodiodes that control frequency and amplitude
Designed and tested the transimpedance TL074CN op-amp amplifier circuit schematic in NI Multisim
Implemented the transimpedance amplifier into a breadboard and used an NI myDAQ data acquisition device to
interconnect the amplifier circuitry with a LabVIEW code program to process the signals
Built a custom LabVIEW code to alter and output the tone based on real-time changes to the UI parameters
User interface in LabVIEW features virtual LEDs, frequency range specification with Auto-Tune and EQ
