We are working on a project based on Vehicle tracking system.In one of
our module we are using audio(voice)  for Public transport  system.As
if for now we are using  filters and a power amplifer We are not able
to get good quality audio output with this setup.

Item used:
Lpc2132 with MMC card interface ,High pass filter+ Low pass filter+
Audio Amplifier+ Speaker

Requirement:


Good Voice quality annoucement system for Public transport System

Are you trying to use PWM to play the audio, or a  DAC?
How are you recording the audio, bit rate and depth?

How?  What's wrong with the quality?  (Frequency response/THD  
distortion/Noise/Effective rms power)

Why do you need these filters?

Are your amplifier and speaker suitable for "good voice quality" ?

Is your clock crystal stable enough for "good voice quality" ?

With PWM at 32kHz carrier and 8bit quantization, you can get a 
"telephone line" quality speech. It would be even better if you apply 
the preemphasis and the noise shaping to the recorded signal. You can 
gain somewhat more quality if you combine several PWM channels. However 
if you need the "music" quality audio, you should use an external DAC.

What about DAC codec ??
It needs I2S interface which is not available with LPC21XX.
If anyone know how to convert SSP from microcontroller controller to
I2S format in software.

I can do that for you, however this is going to be business.

Hi!

Use LPC2141-LPC2148 instead (have USB, RTC...), possibly cheaper than 
LPC2132, and is much faster (interleaved flash...):

LPC2141, LPC2142, LPC2144, LPC2146, and LPC2148 device highlight:

What about DAC codec ??
It needs I2S interface which is not available with LPC21XX.
If anyone know how to convert SSP from microcontroller controller to
I2S format in software.

==> There are plenty of controllers out there with I2S.
        The AVR32 based UC3A3 has SD-Card I/F,
        High speed USB, and I2S (as well as ADC/DAC)
        Should be considerably faster than the LPC as well.

        If you insist on ARM cores, then the AT91SAM7A3
        has SD-Card interface and I2S interface (SSC).
