Overview
2nd order filter with coefficients derived from input pins
Discussion
This module implements a general purpose second order filter that is capable of realizing many different filter types. The module performs internal smoothing allowing the filters to be updated without introducing clicks. In all cases, the module implements an underlying second order filter. First order filters are realized by setting some of the second order coefficients to zero.
The behavior of the cascade filters are controlled by the filterType arrary. The variable, filterType is an integer in the range from 0 to 14 inclusive.
After specifying filterType, adjust the filter parameters by setting the fields, gain, freq, and Q. Some filter parameters are not applicable to all filter types. The variable, freq controls the center frequency of the filter, gain determines the boost or cut in dB, and Q determines how sharp the filter is. Low Q values lead to broad filters and high Q values lead to narrow filters.
The following table discusses the various filter types and which variables are active in each case.
filterType=0, Simple pass through with unity gain.
filterType=1, Gain in dB. [gain].
filterType=2, 1st order Butterworth low pass filter. [freq].
filterType=3, 2nd order Butterworth low pass filter. [freq].
filterType=4, 1st order Butterworth high pass filter. [freq].
filterType=5, 2nd order Butterworth high pass filter. [freq].
filterType=6, 1st order allpass filter. [freq].
filterType=7, 2nd order allpass filter. [freq, Q].
filterType=8, 2nd order low shelf. It allows you to vary the gain of the low frequencies. The high frequencies have a gain of 1.0. [freq, gain].
filterType=9, 2nd order low shelf with Q. It allows you to vary the gain of the low frequencies. The high frequencies have a gain of 1.0. [freq, gain, Q].
filterType=10, 2nd order high shelf. It allows you to vary the gain of the high frequencies. The low frequencies have a gain of 1.0. [freq, gain].
filterType=11, 2nd order high shelf with Q. It allows you to vary the gain of the high frequencies. The low frequencies have a gain of 1.0. [freq, gain, Q].
filterType=12, 2nd order peaking filter. It has unity gain except around the specified frequency. By varying gain, you can get a peak or a notch in the frequency band. [freq, gain, Q].
filterType=13, 2nd order notch filter. It has unity gain except around the specified frequency. At the specified frequency, the filter has a true notch with -inf dB gain. [freq, Q].
filterType=14, 2nd order bandpass filter. It has unity gain at the specified frequency and falls off in both directions. The bandwidth of the filter is determined by Q. [freq, Q].
filterType=15, 1st order Bessel low pass filter. [freq].
filterType=16, 1st order Bessel high pass filter. [freq].
filterType=17, 1st order asymmetrical low shelf. [freq, gain].
filterType=18, 1st order asymmetrical high shelf. [freq, gain].
filterType=19, 1st order symmetrical low shelf. [freq, gain].
filterType=20, 1st order symmetrical high shelf. [freq, gain].
filterType=21, 2nd order Butterworth low pass filter with variable Q. [freq, Q].
filterType=22, 2nd order Butterworth high pass filter with variable Q. [freq, Q].

M=sof_control_fract32_module(NAME, FREQPIN, GAINPIN, QPIN)
Creates a general purpose second order filter that implements a number
of standard filter types. The filter operates on multiple interleaved
channels, with all channels being processed by the same set of
coefficients.
Arguments:
NAME - name of the module.
FREQPIN - Boolean that determines whether the module exposes an input pin that allows
the frequency of the filter to be adjusted.
GAINPIN - Boolean that determines whether the module exposes an input pin that allows
the gain of the filter to be adjusted.
QPIN - Boolean that determines whether the module exposes an input pin that allows
the Q of the filter to be adjusted.Â
