Disclosed is an electronic device which includes an audio processing block for voice recognition in a low-power mode. The electronic device includes a digital microphone that receives a voice signal from a user and converts the received voice signal into a PDM signal, and a DMIC interface circuit. The DMIC interface circuit includes a PDM-PCM converting block that converts the PDM signal into a PCM signal, a maxscale gain tuning block that tunes a maxscale gain of the PCM signal received from the PDM-PCM converting block based on a distance information indicating a physical distance between the user and the electronic device acquired in advance of the converting of the PDM signal, and an anti-aliasing block that performs filtering for acquiring voice data of a target frequency band associated with a PCM signal output from the maxscale gain tuning block.

A multi-channel audio signal converting device using a time-varying digital filter, an electronic system including the same, and a method of converting an audio signal using the time-varying digital filter are provided. The multi-channel audio signal converting device includes a first signal channel and a second signal channel configured to perform analog-to-digital conversion or digital-to-analog conversion using a first clock signal; and a first time-varying filter configured to synchronize a digital audio signal synchronized with a second clock signal different from the first clock signal with the first clock signal and to input the digital audio signal to the second signal channel when digital-to-analog conversion is performed or to synchronize an output signal of the second signal channel with the second clock signal when analog-to-digital conversion is performed.
