Title: Innovations of Keith L Klingler
Introduction
Keith L Klingler is an accomplished inventor based in Indianapolis, IN (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of audio technology, particularly in the synchronization of audio and video information. His innovative approach has led to the development of a unique patent that addresses common issues in audio receivers.
Latest Patents
Klingler holds a patent for a "Time delay control for serial digital video interface audio receiver." This invention features an audio receiver FIFO memory buffer that enhances timing synchronization between video and audio information. It effectively eliminates unpleasant sound effects that can occur when multiple data samples are skipped or repeated in series. The FIFO receiver buffer receives data at an input write-data rate, filling up the memory storage cells. An output read-data signal clocks the data out of these memory storage cells. The FIFO's fullness is monitored and maintained in response to an external signal, ensuring it remains within a specified range defined by upper and lower thresholds. If the FIFO buffer's fullness falls below the lower threshold, the read address pointer is held to read out the immediately preceding data element again, but only once. Conversely, if the FIFO buffer's fullness exceeds the upper limit, the write address pointer is held to overwrite the immediately preceding written data element, but again, only once. This innovative solution significantly improves the performance of audio receivers.
