Abstract:
Provided are systems and methods for utilizing digital microphones in low power keyword detection and noise suppression. An example method includes receiving a first acoustic signal representing at least one sound captured by a digital microphone. The first acoustic signal includes buffered data transmitted with a first clock frequency. The digital microphone may provide voice activity detection. The example method also includes receiving at least one second acoustic signal representing the at least one sound captured by a second microphone, the at least one second acoustic signal including real-time data. The first and second acoustic signals are provided to an audio processing system which may include noise suppression and keyword detection. The buffered portion may be sent with a higher, second clock frequency to eliminate a delay of the first acoustic signal from the second acoustic signal. Providing the signals may also include delaying the second acoustic signal.

Claim (Index 5):
The processor of  claim 2 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, configure the processor to provide a clock signal in response to receiving an indication that voice activity has been detected by the digital microphone, wherein at least the real time data is received at a clock frequency of the clock signal provided by the processor.
