A circuit for use in programmable hearing aids is programmed by inputting digital pulses along two input lines. The programmed information is stored in ring counters and then registered in EEPROMS. A multiplexer (itself a ring counter) selects the ring counter which will be incremented by pulses input to one of the input lines.

Circuit for use in programmable hearing aids

A hearing aid responds to increased noise by changing its frequency response to reduce the effects of the noise. The hearing aid has a circuit which varies the frequency response of the unit as a function of low-frequency sounds, using a fast attack time and a much slower release time.
