Digital Guitar Signal Processor (Embedded Systems Final Project) DIY

This is the final project presentation video for our digital signal processor, which we created as a final project for our Embedded Systems course at the University of Iowa College of Engineering. As stated in the video, our circuit is built around an ATMega88PA. We use an external ADC and DAC to handle the audio signal. The guitar used to demo the effects is a heavily-modded “Fullerton” brand guitar with a Dimarzio Super Distortion from the late 1980s in the bridge position wired with a coil tap and volume control only. The “half-stack” amplifier shown in the guitar demos is a Crate “Flexwave” SS amp set to its “clean” channel with a flat EQ and no effects. Theoretically, this means it did not color the sound significantly. It was used merely to amplify the signal coming out of our circuit’s power amp. Images used in the video are credited within. If you own either of the images we used (“Roadrunner and Coyote” or the “Pedal Board”), and you do not wish for them to be used in this video, please let us know and we will remove them immediately. Thank you, and enjoy the video.

Included in these tests are two of particular interest: one which tests each of the ESPs (the Ensoniq custom digital signal processors) and another which tests the DRAM that is attached to each ESP.

Unlike when the unit first arrived on my bench, both the ESP and DRAM tests now pass.

High Level Explanation of Digital Signal Processors (DSPs)

/31 Comments/by

Digital Signal Processors (Dsps)

Digital Signal Processing techniques improve signal quality or extract important information by removing unwanted part of the signal. The introduction of general purpose microprocessors in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s made it possible for DSP techniques to be used in a much wider range of applications. The microprocessors such as the Intel x86 family were not suitable for the numerically-intensive requirements of digital signal processing, and the increasing importance of DSP led major electronic manufacturers to develop DSP chips, the design of which met all the requirements of digital signal processing.

DSP is a programmable chip and is capable of carrying out millions of floating point operations per second. Typical DSP application fields are audio signal processing, video signal processing, image processing and telecommunications devices. DSP is the basis of many technologies including mobile phones, personal computers, video recorders, CD players, hard disc drive controllers and modems.

The application of digital signal processors in cellular phones is very significant. Signal compression, an important application of digital signal processor, is used in cellular phones to permit a larger number of calls to be handled simultaneously within each local “cell”. The signal compression technology helps to communicate to one another by seeing them while talking. This facility is available with the help of a computer monitor, small video camera and a conventional telephone line linking them together. DSPs can be used in applications that require a high computational speed. Such applications include computer video boards and specialized co-processor boards designed for intensive scientific computation.

Digital signal processors account for a substantial proportion of the world market for electronic devices. And therefore, the leading electronics manufacturers have invested heavily in DSP technology.
