So I focus on checking sampling errors or Bluetooth transmission errors in the digital domain, since that is where most of the noise is introduced. I am setting up a program to stream the ADC sampled audio onto the I2S bus on my stm32 discovery board, so that I can directly hear it through the on board DAC; in this way I can isolate whether the ADC or the BT module is faulting. <em>This is what I will report on next week.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I have also updated the software diagram, and performed the quantitative tests for ADC sampling, signal latency, and BT range that we will present in our final presentation.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-188\" src=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamd0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/05\/software-diagram-updated-1024x765.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"392\" srcset=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamd0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/05\/software-diagram-updated-1024x765.png 1024w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamd0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/05\/software-diagram-updated-300x224.png 300w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamd0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/05\/software-diagram-updated-768x573.png 768w, http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s21-teamd0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/141\/2021\/05\/software-diagram-updated.png 1638w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>(Noooo!
