Abstract
A speaker feedback system has a linear current feedback derived from a current sensing resistor. A linear motional feedback from the active speaker driver is derived from a sensing coil mechanically coupled with the driver coil of the speaker, the driver coil receiving electrical energy from the power amplifier. A motional signal correction circuit extracts the motional signal from the sensing coil and feeds to input B of the multiplier. A current filter circuit filters out higher-frequency signals from the current feedback signal and then feeds to input A of the multiplier. A multiplier performs the multiplication function of its two inputs and produces an output. Post-multiplier equalization circuitry that control the feedback gain of the nonlinear feedback system such that it can effectively compensate for the effect of flux modulation over the targeted frequency range. A feedback network feeds the output from post multiplier equalization to the power amplifier.
