Abstract:
An integrated circuit, a circuit assembly and a method for operation the integrated circuit are disclosed. In embodiments the integrated circuit includes at least one supply voltage terminal configured to receive a supply voltage for operation the integrated circuit, at least one input terminal configured to receive an analog input signal corresponding to an audio signal, at least one output terminal configured to provide an analog output signal and a signal strength detector configured to detect a signal strength of the analog input signal provided at the at least one input terminal, wherein the integrated circuit is configured to amplify an audio signal based on the detected signal strength and to output a corresponding amplified signal at the at least one output terminal, wherein the integrated circuit comprises a signaling circuit configured to indicate an amplification setting of the integrated circuit at the at least one supply voltage terminal.

Claim (Index 25):
A circuit assembly comprising:\n a signal source configured to provide a first analog signal; a signal processing device configured to process a second analog signal; and an amplifier circuit comprising at least one supply voltage terminal configured to receive a supply voltage for operating the amplifier circuit, a signal strength detector and a signaling circuit, the amplifier circuit being arranged in a signal path between the signal source and the signal processing device, wherein the signal strength detector is configured to detect a signal strength of the first analog signal, wherein the amplifier circuit is configured to amplify the first analog signal based on the detected signal strength and to output an amplified version of the first analog signal comprised in the second analog signal, and wherein the signaling circuit is configured to indicate an amplification setting of the amplifier circuit at the at least one supply voltage terminal by modifying a power consumption of the amplifier circuit.
