How to Implement DSP Libraries for LPC11U24 ?
I am trying to make a low pass digital filter with cut-off frequency 20KHz. How can i do so using LPC11U24? I found a sample code for FIR Filter -
Import program

However I am unable to deduce what certain parts of code do -
float32_t buffer_a[BLOCK_SIZE];
float32_t buffer_b[BLOCK_SIZE];
for (float32_t *sgn=output; sgn<(output+TEST_LENGTH_SAMPLES); sgn += BLOCK_SIZE)
{
sine_1KHz.generate(buffer_a); // Generate a 1KHz sine wave
sine_15KHz.process(buffer_a, buffer_b); // Add a 15KHz sine wave
fir.process(buffer_b, sgn); // FIR low pass filter: 6KHz cutoff
}
In This Snippet what is the use of buffer_a and buffer_b? an what does for loop do?

It puts the data through it in several steps, which the for loop is for. Buffer_a only seems to be an intermediate buffer, and buffer_b is used to do the calculations on.
However larger problem: that dsp library used the 'normal' arm-fir implementation, which I guess doesn't work for M0's. In that library there are others which are faster (https://mbed.org/users/emilmont/code/mbed-dsp/file/fdd22bb7aa52/cmsis_dsp/FilteringFunctions), and of course less accurate. However still then, an M0 is not meant for DSP tasks. I doubt it will have the processing power for your requirements.
