This project demonstrates DSP capabilities of Terasic DE2-115

Description

In this project I have designed a system that shows the DSP capabilities of FPGA systems. The FPGA design consists of:

1. A finite-state machine for the audio codec configuration via I2C.
   
2. An I2S receiver for acquiring data from the audio codec.
   
3. A 6-order low-pass IIR filter to demonstrate filtering capabilities of FPGA.
   
4. A 4096-point FFT megacore from Altera to get the signal spectrum.
   
5. A VGA module with video RAM to display the spectrum.
   All modules are written by myself except FFT megacore.
   

The design is intended for the Terasic DE2-115 board with the Cyclone IV FPGA chip.

KEY[0] - reset
SW[2:0] - background color
SW[17] - 1: filter off, 0: filter on
SW[16] - mic left/right channel

VGA: VESA 1024x768@70 Hz
FFT range: 0 - 1/4 Fs
Fs: 48 828.125 Hz

Frequency detection

Dear sir/mam
I want to build a pitch detector using codec on de2-115. I have initialized WM8731, configured it to communicate with microphone and built i2s protocol to get the data from microphone, But i don't know to how to get the frequency of the voice. Can you suggest me some ways to do it.
Many thanks
