Title: Looking for a simple C++ function for lowpass Butterworth filter
Post by: jsmoker on July 23, 2007, 08:58:48 AM
As stated in the subject, I'm looking for a simple C++ function for lowpass Butterworth filter.  I have 16 x 12 bit inputs coming into the computer but they're very jumpy. 

Thanks,
Jason

You only ask the hard questions . . .

Anyway, wikipedia gives a 3rd order equation derived for you. Shouldnt be hard to write your own C++ with that:

I havent done this stuff in ages, I dont really understand it anymore  :-[

This is potentially useful:

A google search came across a lot of source code, just none in C++
