FPGA mp3/wav memo recording
Object – Environment of System
t
=
Music/voice signals are band-limited signals
Memo storing dictates capacity instead of quality as primary concern
We need:Low complexity systemWidely accepted storage format and medium
Therefore:Minimize sampling rate (8kHz) and bit analysis (16 bit)Choose wav/mp3 and USB Flash Drive
Hardware Setup (i-side only)
Programmable A/D converter
1-bit output stream : Use S/P8kHz sampling rate, dual channelNo pre-filteringSame setting for D/AWhy only input? Symmetry
Output of hardware: at request of the processor / encoderVery quick sample demand, very slow samplingSolution: HARDWARE MUST SLOW DOWN THE SOFTWAREHow long? As much as it takes !!
S/P & Clock Setup (FYI)Clocks are always created as fractions of the Audio Clock: 18.432MHz18.432MHz / 2304 = 8kHz (Sampling)
A/D Output must be converted to 16-bit word before the next sample18.432MHz / 144 = 128kHz (S/P)Within 1-sample time interval we create one 16-bit word (sample)
FIFO Processor much faster than A/DWithin 1 sample time : 6250 read commands but only 1 new sample !!
Pause processor until there is word to read from the FIFOIn the process of reading:
If there is a read command pause the processorPut the word on the busThen read it!!3 cycle delay (w.r.t. processor clock)
FIFO(2) (FYI)
Questions: How big? mp3 frame Synchronous? NO
Moore state machine Input & Output FIFO
equally spaced ? NO Delay between
successful reading and output word: 3 cycles
FIFO(3)
Operation: Altera MegaFunction One clock cycle after
rdreq, data is presented at output q; usedw decrements
One clock cycle after wrreq, data is latched in; usedw increments
Underflow circuitry prevents data being read from an empty FIFO; FIFO blocks
Overflow circuitry prevents data being wrteen to a full FIFO; FIFO blocks
Timing Diagram (Input) (FYI)
(2) New sample arrives at the FIFO FIFO is ready for output
(1) Read & Write are de-assetred WAITREQUEST
(3) FIFO is not empty prepares for output
(4) FIFO is not empty & Read command data is on the bus
(5) WAITREQUEST 0 and data is read
Operating System uClinux – microcontroller
implementation of Linux.
Enables the incorporation of device drivers – without having to write them!
Storage/File System
Utilized USB mass storage device
Running as a host device on DE2
Once mounted, provides convenient storage of recordings in a “directory”
I/O programming in user space
Not kernel space - no interrupts
Can’t use Hardware Abstraction Layer (e.g. IORD16_Direct)
To access peripherals (switches, audio) use memory pointer access
WAV Format Recording
The ‘RIFF’ chunk descriptor• WAVE format
The ‘fmt’ sub-chunk• format of the sound information
The ‘DATA’ sub-chunk• size of the sound information and raw sound dat
MP3 Format (MPEG 1 Layer3)
MP3 is composed of succession of frames i.e. frame1 - frame2 - frame3 -……..
Each frame is totally independent, can cut any part of MPEG files and play correctly.

•Since we want to user low sampling Rate - 8kz, we choose MPEG 2.5Layer3 •Note: The only difference MPEG 1,2,2.5 is MPEF 2 and 2.5 support more bit rate, and sampling rate. Everything else are the same.

Encoding Implementation
The reason to have .wav file in the transition is that the mp3 encoding algorithm is to slow to make it realtime
ADC
.Wav file
At USB Encoding
.mp3 file at USB
Encoding Implementation
Take a code from shine fixed point version 1.09 which was originally used on ARM machine
Strip out the part about ARM and change the part of assembly code to C in order to run under nios-uclinux
Made it a function for main code to call
Decoding: Uclinux – MP3PLAY
Support MPEG-1, 2, 2.5 Layer 1 2 3 Support both fixed-point and floating-
point Can use Assembly to optimize the
computing Implementation: Set to use fixed-point function in mp3dec library and do not
use Assembly optimization Write out PCM data to FIFO input Add header on PCM data to write to WAV
Decoding Implementation

Problems – Comments Software(Decoding):
Now, we can hear artist’s vocal in the background with lots of white noise
Before waitrequest function enable, it sounded like machine gun
With waitrequest enabled, artist’s voice sounds retarded After we increased the FIFO size, the tempo is close to
original clip Write to wav file, but cannot hear sound Write raw PCM data, listening on Matlab does not work
Software(Encoding):
Too slow to be real-time
Inline assembly optimizationHardware mul() implementation
Problems – Comments Hardware:
FIFO timing Need to synchronize bus clock (100 MHz) and S. CLK (8 kHz) Encoder/Decoder might be consuming/feeding data faster than
ADC/DAC can process! Need to increase size of FIFO
Asynchronous “wait” waitrequest is combinational logic; state machine is sequential
Choice of Different configurations Size of FIFO’s (mp3 frame) Simulation :
Initial sample of FIFO undefined at output Caused by Legacy mode (chosen as a suggestion of the software)
