    • The application relates to digital to analogue conversion circuits having dynamic gain control. A digital variable gain element (102) may apply gain to an input digital signal (DIN) upstream of a DAC (101) to make better use of the input range of the DAC and an analogue variable gain element (103) applies a compensating analogue gain. Again controller (201) has a gain allocation module (204) for controlling the allocation of gain between said digital and analogue variable gain elements in response to changes in a signal level of the input digital audio signal. In the present invention the gain allocation module is operable in first and second modes of operation where the response to reductions in signal level is slower in the first mode than in the second mode of operation. A low-level detector (202) monitors the input digital audio signal so as to detect a low-level part of the signal and the gain controller changes from the first mode to the second mode following detection of a low-level part of the input digital audio signal. The response of the gain allocation module in the second mode is preferably fast enough such that the digital gain can be changed to a target setting suitable for the low-level part of the signal before it is received at the digital gain element.
    • 该应用涉及具有动态增益控制的数模转换电路。 数字可变增益元件(102)可以对DAC(101)上游的输入数字信号(DIN)施加增益,以更好地利用DAC的输入范围,并且模拟可变增益元件(103)应用补偿模拟 获得。 再次,控制器(201)具有增益分配模块(204),用于响应于输入数字音频信号的信号电平的变化来控制所述数字和模拟可变增益元件之间的增益分配。 在本发明中,增益分配模块可在第一和第二操作模式中操作,其中对第一模式的信号电平降低的响应比在第二操作模式中更慢。 低电平检测器(202)监视输入数字音频信号,以便在检测到输入的低电平部分之后检测信号的低电平部分,并且增益控制器从第一模式改变到第二模式 数字音频信号。 增益分配模块在第二模式中的响应优选地足够快,使得数字增益可以在其在数字增益元件被接收之前被改变为适合于信号的低电平部分的目标设置。

    • This application relates to digital-to-analogue conversion with improved noise performance. Embodiments relate to digital-to-analogue conversion circuits (300) for converting a digital audio signal to an analogue audio signal having a digital-to-analogue converter (104) operable at a plurality of DAC clock rates. A first clock controller (301-1) controls the DAC clock rate based on an indication of the amplitude of the audio signal. The DAC clock rate (CK1) may be increased for low amplitude signal, where noise is important, to reduce the in-band thermal noise of the DAC. At higher amplitudes, when noise is less audible, the DAC clock rate may be reduced to avoid distortion. The amplitude of the audio signal may be monitored by a digital level detector (302) or in some cases by an analogue level detector (303). The DAC may be an oversampling DAC with an input interpolator (101) The conversion circuit may also include a word-length reduction module (102) and a dynamic error matching module (103) whose clock rates may also be varied based on the signal.
    • 该应用涉及具有改进的噪声性能的数模转换。 实施例涉及用于将数字音频信号转换为模拟音频信号的数模转换电路(300),模拟音频信号具有可以多个DAC时钟速率工作的数模转换器(104)。 第一时钟控制器(301-1)基于音频信号的幅度的指示来控制DAC时钟速率。 对于噪声很重要的低幅度信号,DAC时钟频率(CK1)可能会增加,以降低DAC的带内热噪声。 在较高的幅度下,当噪声较小时,DAC时钟频率可能会降低,以避免失真。 音频信号的幅度可以由数字电平检测器(302)监视,或者在某些情况下由模拟电平检测器(303)监视。 DAC可以是具有输入内插器的过采样DAC(101)。转换电路还可以包括字长减小模块(102)和动态误差匹配模块(103),其时钟速率也可以基于该信号而变化。

    • This application relates to circuitry for processing sense signals generated by MEMS capacitive transducers for compensating for distortion in such sense signals. The circuitry has a signal path between an input (204) for receiving the sense signal and an output (205) for outputting an output signal based on said sense signal. Compensation circuitry (206, 207) is configured to monitor the signal at a first point along the signal path and generate a correction signal (Scorr); and modify the signal at at least a second point along said signal path based on said correction signal. The correction signal is generated as a function of the value of the signal at the first point along the signal path so as to introduce compensation components into the output signal that compensate for distortion components in the sense signal. The first point in the signal path may be before or after the second point in the signal path. The monitoring may be performed in an analogue or a digital part of the signal path and in either case the modification may be applied in an analogue or a digital part of the signal path.
