Data rate conversion device and method

摘要

Data rate conversion devices and methods are provided. A method for converting a first digital signal having a first sampling rate into a second digital signal having a sampling rate close to a predetermined second sampling rate comprises the following operations: when the ratio of the first sampling rate to the second sampling rate is a repeating infinite decimal, calculate at least two calibrating coefficient values and output the calibrating coefficient values according to a predetermined rule; conduct overflow operation on the output calibrating coefficient; and interpolate the first digital signal using the output calibrating coefficient and the result of the overflow operation to obtain the second digital signal such that during any period of a certain length along time axis, sampling times of the second digital signal equals to sampling times of the second sampling rate.
