autoscan circuit
You have asked this before. Why don't you continue your previous thread instead of scheduling the question a new?
I see only a loose relation between both problems, thus I'll refer to your main question.
To start with 567, it's a tone decoder with a rather small bandwidth of 14%, so it's not suited for observing a larger frequency band. It's also not designed to provide amplitude information.
A tunable filter, as suggested by the scanner example, can basically work, but it's possibly unsuitable for a varying signal. My basic problem is, that you didn't exactly tell what you want to achieve. Analysis of acoustic signals can be rather simple or very complex, depending on the signal type and the parameters you want to extract.
To mention two existing solutions with different sound analysis properties:
- A guitar tuner. It performs an exact frequency measurement of a single, pure tone. The tone must have a minimum duration and shouldn't be affected by a high noise level.
- A real-time audio spectrum analyzer. It displays the varying amplitude for a limited number of bands, e.g. 10 or 30, that are equally distributed over the audio frequency range. Respectively, the frequency resolution is rather limited.
