    摘要: An analog interface system interfaces with a digital signal processor. The system receives analog signals, digitizes those signals and transmits them to the signal processor upon completion of the conversion. The system directs transmission of digital data from the signal processor to the system, and converts it to analog as the output of the system. The digital signal processor determines whether the sampling rate of the D-to-A and A-to-D converters is correct for the rate at which the data is being received by the respective converters. If not, the DSP sends a number of master clock cycles to the system which then retards or advances the sampling rate of the converter by that number of clock cycles.

    摘要: Traditionally, buck-boost switching regulators with bridge topologies have been avoided due to their inability to seamlessly transition between buck mode and boost mode. Here, however, a buck-boost switching regulator with a bridge topology has been provided, which has an improved controller. Namely, a processor (such as a digital signals processor or DSP) provides digital control for the bridge to enable it so substantially seamlessly transition between buck mode and boost mode.

    摘要: A microprocessor system includes a CPU device with on-chip or off-chip memory, and data and control busses for accessing memory and/or peripherals. The peripheral circuitry includes one or more channels for input and/or output of data, wherein various characteristics of the treatment of data in the channel are controlled by the program being executed in the CPU. In one embodiment analog input and output channels are included, and the A-to-D or D-to-A conversion rates are selected by executing a data output instruction by the CPU. The cut-off points of the filters are likewise selected. The A-to-D converter loads a first-in first-out memory which is read by the CPU in burst mode when filled. Likewise, the CPU loads digital data to a first-in first-out memory in the output channel, and then the D-to-A converts at its selected rate.

    摘要: A codifier/decodifier (CODEC) filter circuit (250) connected in a subscriber line interface circuit (202) includes a transmit section (264, 262, 260) for converting differential voltage audio transmit signals representing voice transmissions from the subscriber instrument (202) into encoded digital data for transmission to the digital switching network. A receive section (254, 252) coupled between the digital switching network and subscriber instrument (202) within CODEC (250) for converting encoded digital data representing voice signals switched through the digital switching network to differential voltage audio receive signals for transmission to the subscriber instrument (202). The subscriber loop and subscriber instrument (202) reflect the digital voltage audio signals to the transmit section (264, 262, 260). An impedance section (258, 256) within CODEC (250) connects between the transmit section (264, 262, 260) and the receive section (254, 252) and is disposed to provide an audio band feedback signal between the transmit section (264, 262, 260) and the receive section (254, 252) for synthesizing a source impedance for the subscriber line that matches the subscriber loop impedance. Impedance section (258, 256) includes an analog impedance scaling network (246) coupled between the transmit section (264, 262, 260) and receive section (254, 252). The impedance section (258, 256) also includes a programmable digital filter (258) coupled to the transmit section (264, 262, 260) having a transfer function equal to: (R2T)(1+z−1)/(R1(T+2C2R2)(1+(T−2R2C2)/(T+2R2C2)z−1) where R2 is the second subscriber loop impedance, C2 is the subscriber loop capacitance, R1 is the first subscriber loop impedance, T is the sampling rate of the analog-to-digital converter and z is the frequency of the signal. Furthermore, a summer circuit (256) provides feedback between the programmable digital filter (258) and the receive section (254, 252) by summing the single-ended audio receive signals from the digital switching network with the audio band feedback signal output by the programmable digital filter (258).
