ABSTRACT:
In a digital hearing aid device with an output amplifier having a sigma-delta modulator, the output transducer has a high current consumption even when no output signal perceivable as an acoustic output signal is generated. A linear digital filtering in connection with the sigma-delta modulation reduces the number of the high-frequency edges in the (typically) pulse-density-modulated output signal.
