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 10):
An electrical circuit for a microphone assembly, the electrical circuit comprising:\n a multibit analog-to-digital converter configured to generate N-bit digital samples representative of an electrical signal, the electrical signal representative of acoustic activity detected by an electro-acoustic transducer; and a first digital-to-digital converter configured to generate a corresponding M-bit digital signal based on the N-bit digital samples, wherein N and M are positive integers and N>M.
