<p>Systems and methods implemented in a multi-bit digital noise shaper for reducing or eliminating undesirable transient response when the noise shaper exits a clipping state. In one embodiment, the noise shaper includes a quantizer, a filter, and a filter control unit that detects clipping in the quantizer and dynamically adjusts the allowable range of the internal state values of the filter. In one embodiment, a clipping mechanism is provided for each state value within the filter to clip the state value if it exceeds a corresponding clipping level. The clipping level for each state value is lower when the quantizer is clipping, and higher when the quantizer is not clipping. The clipping level for each state value may be transitioned either immediately or gradually from a current level to a target level (which is lower when the quantizer is clipping, and higher when the quantizer is not clipping.)</p> |
