    摘要: A flash type AD converter includes a group of comparators divided into blocks each including 2.sup.N comparators (N=1, 2, ---), each comparing an input signal with one of a plurality of reference signals, each having individually different voltage levels. One of the comparators may correspond to a level change point where the voltage level of the input signal is higher than that of the reference signal of that comparator which then generates a specific output different from those of the remaining comparators. The converter generates a binary-coded output on the basis of the specific output generated from the level change point comparator. When any one of the plural comparators belonging to one of the blocks generates the specific output, the specific output is applied as an inhibit signal to inhibit appearance of an output from a block including comparators having reference voltage signals with corresponding levels lower than those of the comparators of the block to which the comparator generating the specific output belongs.

    摘要: Making use of a digital acoustic signal processing apparatus arranged by employing memory device for storing a digital acoustic signal, acoustic frequency feature enhancing device for enhancing an acoustic frequency feature, and low-speed sound reproducing device for changing a speed of the stored voice to reproduce this voice as a low speed into a hearing aid and an appliance with an acoustic output, a hearing function difficulty due to an age is aided in utilization of audio output appliances such as a hearing aid, television receiver, and a telephone receiver. After the voice has been stored in the memory device, a process for enhancing the frequency characteristic in order to fit the frequency characteristic to the individual hearing characteristic and the voice reproducing environment is carried out and thereafter represented to the user. The user can repeatedly listen the voice stored in the memory device with employment of control device for controlling the voice reproducing operation. Furthermore, since a process for expanding a time scale during a sound reproducing operation is carried out, the voice can be represented at the low speed. Since the voice whose frequency characteristic has been enhanced can be represented at the low speed in order that either an individual hearing ability, or an apparatus is fitted to a using environment, hearing articulation can be improved with respect to such a hearing, the frequency resolution and the time resolution are simultaneously deteriorated.

Each preceding converting stage except a last converting stage further includes an amplifier for deriving and amplifying a conversion residue representing a quantization error resulting from the conversion performed by the preceding converting stage based on the digital output outputted by the ADC unit of the preceding converting stage and the analog input inputted to the preceding converting stage. The amplified conversion residue from the preceding converting stage is supplied as an analog input to a succeeding converting stage. A connector is provided for connecting the amplifier of the preceding converting stage to a node in the ADC unit of the succeeding converting stage. The node provides a base voltage to the ADC unit of the succeeding converting stage.
