Abstract
A hearing compensation system comprises an input transducer for converting acoustical information at an input thereof to electrical signals at an output thereof, a differential analog-to-digital converter sampling the electrical signals output from the input transducer at an input thereof and outputting differential signal samples at an output thereof, a digital signal processing circuit having an input connected to the output of the differential analog-to-digital converter and operating on the differential signal samples to form processed differential signal samples at an output thereof, and an output transducer for converting electrical signals at an input thereof to acoustical information at an output thereof, the processed differential signal samples coupled to the input of the output transducer.
