Abstract

See full text

A circuit and method for lowering noise in an audio rendering system is described. An analysis is made of the spectral content of an audio signal, i.e., the frequencies it contains, over a certain time interval. Cutoff frequencies of high pass and low pass filters that pass the audio signal are then adjusted for each interval by changing the effective values of adjustable impedance elements in the filters, so that the bandwidth of the system is adjusted to be what is sufficient to pass any frequencies in the resulting analog audio signal during any given time interval, rather than requiring the entire 20 kHz audio spectrum to be constantly present.
