PCT No. PCT/NO90/00178 Sec. 371 Date May 26, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date May 26, 1992 PCT Filed Nov. 29, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO91/08654 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 13, 1991.Programmable hybrid hearing aid with digital signal processing comprising a main section (1) which can be inserted in the meatus (6). The main section (1) comprises an open connection between the ear opening and an inner portion of the meatus (6), providing an acoustic transmission channel with low-pass characteristic and resonant amplification. The main section further comprises an electroacoustic transmission channel based on digital signal processing and a signal processor (DSP) and with possibility for suppressing a possible acoustic signal feedback through the acoustic transmission channel. A variant of the hearing aid is provided with a microphone (M1) and the feedback signal is suppressed by digital filtering. Another variant of the hearing aid employs two microphones (M1.M2). and the feedback signal may then be suppressed by phasing out before the digital signal processing, while the digital signal processing also comprises cancellation of the feedback signal in case of high gain. A number of response functions are stored in a memory (RAM2) in a control unit and is freely chosen by the user in regard of adaption to hearing function and acoustic environment. All the electronics of the electroacoustic channel in the hearing aid is implemented as a monolithic integrated circuit (3) in CMOS technology.
