Abstract

An Apple ][-based frequency analyzer with a digitizing rate of 35 kilosamples per second at 8-bit vertical resolution is presented. The FFT software uses the Cooley-Tukey algorithm and features a 128-8192 point FFT variable transform size to provide resolution from 5 hertz to 300 hertz. By the sampling theorem, the 35 kilohertz sampling frequency will be capable of uniquely describing the Fourier spectrum of analog signals having harmonics as high as 17.5 kilohertz (audible spectrum).
