The results below are taken from an FFT using a webcam microphone to analyse the output across an array

of frequencies for a square wave inputted into

an MBed application board built-in speaker. The results below show what frequencies to avoid/use by detailing the frequencies where the speaker
resonates.

Below is a mini block diagram of the test ran:
