Same 3.3v stabilized voltage is divided with two resistors R1 & R2 and then fed into the analog input for DC bias. This ensure that ADC output doesn’t clip on the negative cycles of the input signal. As analog signal oscillates above and below zero voltage level we need a DC bias at the analog input of the ADC. In this project reference voltage for is derived from the 3.3v stabilized voltage source on the Arduino board. You may use a audio splitter cable so that you can feed same music simultaneously into spectrum analyzer and into another amplifier ( if needed ).ĪDC is configured to use external reference voltage. Hence left and right audio channels are mixed together and fed into the A0 analog input of the ADC. Sampling frequency of 38.64Khz means that digital samples can reproduce input frequency of upto 19.32Kz (Nyquist's theorem) which is good enough for audio signals.Īs I mentioned in the beginning, the intended purpose of this project is to display frequency spectrum of audio music signal. This is achieved by configuring ADC prescaler to 32. ADC is configured to sample input signal with the clock frequency of 38.46khz.

Please make sure R1 & R2 (refer schematic) are of same value.Īrduino board (ATmega328P) has built in Analog To Digital converter (ADC) which is being used here for converting input audio signal into digital samples. Resistor values are not very strict, you may choose any closest value.

5 volt power supply (usb supply will do).

Push button switch - 1 no (normally comes with Arduino kit).

Arduino Nano or Uno (I tried with Nano and Uno, must work with other models as well).

Audio can be fed from headphone output or Line-out of music system / amplifier.

Prototype use 32x8 LED matrix display, this can be changed and easily modified.Both left and right channels of audio signal are mixed so that you don't miss any beat.Five different display modes are supported which can be switched with the push button.Uses easily installable libraries “arduinoFFT” and “MD_MAX72xx”.Main features of this frequency spectrum analyzer Components used in this project are low cost items and are easy to assemble. Expected audience of this project is any audio enthusiast, student or a beginner who has basic understanding of electronic components, Arduino and C programming. This project is for making a 32-band audio (music) frequency spectrum analyzer / visualizer using Arduino.
