摘要:An improvement to split-architecture audio codecs such as those defined by theAudio Codec '97 specification (AC '97) includes a simulated analog-to-digital (A/D)
digitization of the PC beep signal from a personal computer (PC). A PC beep simulatedA/D digitization circuit simulates the A/D conversion of the PC beep signal. The PC beepsimulated A/D digitization circuit eliminates the need for a pre-amplifier, and reduces thedesign complexity and power consumption otherwise necessary for an A/D converter, byoutputting either of two simulated A/D converter values corresponding respectively to aconversion of the HIGH and LOW logic levels of the PC beep signal. The simulated A/Dconverter output signal from the PC beep simulated digitization circuit is subsequentlyscaled and summed with the digital signals from other audio sources, and output fromthe audio codec.
