I haven't gotten the Keyword Spotting working yet, but since today is the deadline I thought I should summarize how far I've gotten.
ADC Timing
The impulse that I'm trying to use was sampled at 16KHz with 1 second windows.
The equation for sampling rate is:
RS = fCLK_ADC / ( nSAMPLING + nOFFCOMP + nDATA)
where fCLK_ADC = processor clock/prescaler --> processor clock is 48MHz
nSAMPLING is the number of clocks in the sampling period
nOFFCOMP is a fixed 4 clock sampling period (use either nOFFCOMP or nSAMPLING but not both)
nDATA is the number of bits (resolution)
So, with a prescaler value of 128 and a total of 23 clocks per sample would be about a 16.3 KHz sampling rate
I went to verify this on the scope. I'm setting the DMA to transfer 16000 samples per buffer and toggle the signal between buffers. For a 16 KHz sampling rate I should see a period of 2 seconds.
With 23 clocks per sample (nSAMPLING = 11 and nDATA = 12) I ended up with 2.04 seconds or about 15.7 KHz.
With 22 clocks per sample (nSAMPLING = 10 and nDATA = 12) I ended up with 1.96 seconds or about 16.3 KHz.
Not sure how much effect this will have but I'll try the higher sample rate.
The registers are set as follows:
ADC1->CTRLA.reg = ADC_CTRLA_PRESCALER_DIV128
ADC1->SAMPCTRL.bit.SAMPLEN = 0x0a
ADC1->CTRLB.reg = ADC_CTRLB_RESSEL_12BIT
Here is the scope capture:
The impulse partitions the 1 second sampling window into 4 slices, so my DMA buffers will hold 4000 samples each.
Error compiling with the impulse (model library)
Unfortunately there is a known problem with filename length using the Arduino IDE on Windows (32k character limit) that I had forgotten about, so I had problems compiling.
I had run into this problem when compiling the Nano 33 BLE Sense example and had to add a patch to the arduino hardware mbed library.
Luckily, Edge Impulse has a patch http://cdn.edgeimpulse.com/drivers/samd51-arduino/platform.local.txt for the samd51 that I added to the seeeduino hardware samd library. The patch indicated that it is for an Adafruit samd51 but it seems to work for me.
Sample buffer overrun
This is where I am currently. I think that I made some coding errors integrating the impulse library. Hopefully I can find the errors by inspection, otherwise I'll need to think about how to debug the program. Might be a problem understanding how the data is being handled. Or maybe I made a mistake with the DMA.
I need to take some time off for other projects but I'll post when I get this figured out.
