<p>An apparatus for reducing quantization distortion of a digital signal is provided in which digital low-pass filters each picking up the low frequency components having a predetermined cut-off frequency from an input digital signal while expanding downward the bit length of the input digital signal, and a counter counts the number of consecutive pre- and post-sampling points having the same value at each point of the input digital signal. Of a selecting unit, a delay unit and a bit expander select and output, in accordance with the count value of the counter, a delayed and downward bit expanded input digital signal, for the sections having the count value of a predetermined value or smaller, or a signal passed through one of the digital low-pass filters having a lower cut-off frequency in correspondence with an increase in the count value, for the sections having the count value of a predetermined value or larger.</p> |
