Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a microphone assembly including a multibit analog-to-digital converter configured to generate N-bit samples representative of a microphone signal. The microphone assembly also includes a first digital-to-digital converter configured to generate a corresponding M-bit digital signal based on N-bit digital samples, wherein N and M are positive integers and N>M. The microphone assembly may include a data interface configured to repeatedly receive samples of the M-bit digital signal and write bits of the M-bit digital signal to a data frame.

Claim (Index 7):
The assembly of  claim 1  further comprising:\n a second digital-to-digital converter configured to generate a corresponding single-bit digital signal based on N-bit digital samples, wherein M>1; and \n a multiplexer comprising a first input coupled to the output of the first digital-to-digital converter and a second input coupled to the output of the second digital-to-digital converter; \n wherein the multiplexer is configured to selectively transmit either the single-bit digital signal or the M-bit digital signal to the physical interface.
