Title: I need some help, can someone tell me how to make a sound recognizer
Post by: conker on April 07, 2009, 06:51:38 AM: i need some thing that will recognize a sound being played either through a mic or directly pugged in to an audio port
it needs to recognize about three different frequencys
when it recognizes one i need it to complete a different circuit for each
it needs to be portable with nothing LESS THAN 3.6v powering it
thanks for any info if you want to know why i need it check out my psp bluetooth mod

Seems to me that you mean a equilizer by talking about frequencys. But a sound recognizer like a voice recognizer is somthing totally diferent, u see voice is not FM rather AM so it doesnt makes any sence to me what you want. I advice you to explain more about the aplication itself rather than just talking about things that you might not know. Maybe what you want is a filter, but then again wtf...

http://www.national.com/mpf/LM/LM2917.html (http://www.national.com/mpf/LM/LM2917.html) This is a frequency to voltage conversion IC. essentially you can get it to output a voltage that is in reference to the frequency it is "seeing". you can put a couple bandpass filters on the input, that only pass certain frequencies to avoid false readings. Then by using a couple of comparators on the output, they would be able to run a transistor/mosfet in order to complete the respective circuit once the correct threshold voltage is outputed by the LM2917.

Do you have any formal education with electronix? If you are a hobby level electrician, and the description above doesnt scare you, probably we could get you up and running, but it will require some work, espeacially on ur end.
