Class-G control system with low latency signal path

Abstract

Systems and methods include a digital control module that receives and processes audio data for output through a loudspeaker. An analog block receives the audio data and the power control signal and amplifies the audio data for output. A first processing path includes a buffer to delay the audio data, a first component to combine the buffered audio data and anti-noise. A second processing path includes an absolute value block to receive the audio data and an envelope detector to receive the absolute value data and generate a maximum value for the envelope. An anti-noise path includes an absolute value block configured to determine an anti-noise absolute value which is combined with the absolute value anti-noise data. A power generator receives the output from the envelope detector and updates a power level to approximate a minimum powered needed to process the audio signal.
