METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FREQUENCY COMPENSATION IN AN AUDIO CODEC
First Claim
1. A method for signal processing the method comprising:
- in a hardware audio CODEC comprising a filter communicatively coupled to one or more audio output devices;
configuring said filter based on a power consumption of said filter and based on a frequency response of an active one of said one or more audio output devices; and
filtering an audio signal via said configured filter.

Abstract
In a method and system for frequency compensation in an audio CODEC, a filter in a hardware audio CODEC may be configured based on power consumption and based on a frequency response of an active output device to which the filter is communicatively coupled. The filter may comprise a plurality of filter stages, which may be, for example, biquads, and the filter may be configured by enabling or disabling one or more of the stages. In this manner, power consumption of the filter may be managed by enabling and/or disabling one or more stages. Configuration of the filter may be performed dynamically depending on whether one or more audio output devices may be active. In this regard, which output device is active and its frequency response may be determined and filter coefficients may be reconfigured upon a change in which output device may be active.
