Thanks I'm gonna try your method. Hope it works.

It's hard to run an efficient MAC that way. I would store all 
coefficients in flash or ROM, and move the appropriate set into the 
MAC's coefficient buffer in RAM when the filter is called for. That way, 
the routine itself needn't change at all.

To implement this code would take a lot more time and effort than I
have to spend on it right now.

In Psuedo Code format, however, here is the gist of what you want to
do:

IIR16_COEFFECIENTS  coeff_array[2] = {filter1, filter2}; // create an
array of your coeffecients structures

selection_var = read_GPIO(); // read your selection criteria (assume 2
filters)
process_filter(coeff_array[selection_var]);

The above passes a pointer to a set of filter coeffecients based upon
the status of the GPIO pin.  The big part will be rewriting the filter
algorithm to accept the pointer to the filter coefficients that is
variable as opposed to hard coded. In the sample code you posted, which
looks like it is from Ti's sample library,  I believe that the filter
coefficients are already in the form of a pointer in the structure that
gets assigned to iir.  You will need to either modify the structure or
write some code to assign the value in the structure based upon the
status of the GPIO pin.

Thanks for your reply. Can you show me what exactly you mean in paragraph
1 on the sample code that I attached. Are you saying that I initialize the
coeff array depending on the GPIO pin or change the structure format of the
filter. Thanks.

I believe you can achieve what you are after fairly easilly.  The way I
would approach it would be to select a different set of filter
co-efficients based upon the desired response (cutoff freq) and then
use these co-efficients in the same filter algorithm.  You could set up
an array of a filter co-efficients and index into the array based on
the GPIO status.  If you have a functioning filter, based upon TI's
library, you would need to adjust the called filter routine to allow a
pointer to the desired filter co-efficients (offset into your array)
as a passed paramater as opposed to the hard coded constant in their
examples.

With this goal in mind, I would hazzard the statement that an IIR
filter may be 'better' because they are more efficient than FIR filters
in their memory use to store the coefficients.  Since you are storing
multiple filters in memory, the fewer co-efficients you have to store
the better.  The down side to IIR is that it can be sensitve to
co-efficient precision, especially in a fixed point processor and can
suffer from overflow.  As a result you will need to be carefull with
scaling.  IIR filters are also not inherently stable like FIR filters
and stability must be designed in.

Hi

In 1 of my projects i need to implement 2 filters on input data. The
frequency at which the filter is tuned is decided by the input of a GPIO.
for example lets say i have to implement 2 low pass filters that could
have passband frequencies from (20,40,80,150,600 KHz etc). The Gpio input
decides which 2 filters to implement. Can i implement this using the IIR
TI C2000 filter library? Essentially i would like to design filters for
each of these values using the eZiir Matlab script & select 2 of them
depending on the GPIO input. Is this possible using the library? If yes
how? Is IIR library better or FIR? Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

I have attached the code below.
/* Create an Instance of IIR5BIQD16 module and place the object in
"iirfilt" section    */ 
#pragma DATA_SECTION(iir, "iirfilt");
IIR5BIQ16  iir=IIR5BIQ16_DEFAULTS;
                                                                  
/*

==============================================================================*/

/* Define the Delay buffer for the cascaded 6 biquad IIR filter and place
it in "iirfilt" section */
#pragma DATA_SECTION(dbuffer,"iirfilt");
int dbuffer[2*IIR16_LPF_NBIQ];

/*

const int coeff[5*IIR16_LPF_NBIQ]=IIR16_LPF_COEFF;
         
         
/* Finter Input and Output Variables                */   
int xn,yn;
     
void main()
{    

/* IIR Filter Initialisation                                */ 
        iir.dbuffer_ptr=dbuffer;
        iir.coeff_ptr=(int *)coeff; 
        iir.qfmat=IIR16_LPF_QFMAT;
        iir.nbiq=IIR16_LPF_NBIQ; 
        iir.isf=IIR16_LPF_ISF; 
        iir.init(&iir);
              

/*---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Nothing running in the background at present

        while(1) 
        {
            iir.input=xn;           
            iir.calc(&iir);
            yn=iir.output;
        }
