Interpolative PCM decoder utilized for .mu.-law and A-law

In an interpolative PCM decoder having holding means for holding a polarity bit signal, segment selection bit signals and uniform quantization bit signals for one sampling period, means for receiving uniform quantization bit signals from the holding means and expanding the bit signals into a group of 1-bit signals on a time axis, means for adding the signals from the expansion means and the segment selection bit signals, a digital-to-analog converter which generates an analog value of a lower end of each segment, and a logic circuit for the .mu.-law which receives an output of the addition means and which delivers a selection signal for generating the analog value to cause the output of the digital-to-analog converter to be switched from the lower boundary value of a given segment to the lower boundary value of the next higher segment as a function of time within one sampling period, said interpolative PCM decoder further comprising an AND circuit which receives the selection signal for selecting a minimum unit of the analog value of the lower end of the segment and a control signal for change-over between the .mu.-law and the A-law, and means for generating the same analog value as the minimum unit of the first-mentioned analog value in accordance with an output of said AND circuit.
