EMA Low-Pass Filter
Problem and Scope
The existing approach for smoothing, the windowed moving average, requires a window. This is intuitive and enforces a hard cutoff for old samples. However, it needs memory, which may be less performant. I also noticed some integer division which could cause awkward truncation behavior, and the DMA is still configured as NOINCREMENT.
Hence, I added an EMA approach to smoothing in the ADC code.
