ABSTRACT:
A signal processing device uses a ΔΣ modulator having varying effective orders to ensure an S/N ratio by selecting a high order when a 1-bit music signal is output via the ΔΣ modulator. The signal processing device prevents noise during switchover by shifting to a low order just before the ΔΣ modulator is bypassed if this occurs. The present invention provides a digital signal processing device which can switch between an original sound signal and a ΔΣ modulation signal and yield a sufficient S/N ratio for a reprocessed ΔΣ modulation signal. If any 1-bit original sound signal is input, little switching noise is generated.
