AUDIO REPRODUCTION DEVICE AND AUDIO REPRODUCTION LSI - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240040329 titled 'AUDIO REPRODUCTION DEVICE AND AUDIO REPRODUCTION LSI

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an audio reproduction device that can reproduce audio in multiple channels. It includes reproduction control parts, reproduction setting value registers, and common lines for supplying reproduction setting values and writing signals.

  • The device can reproduce audio in each of (n+1) channels, where n is a natural number.
  • It has reproduction setting value registers corresponding to the (n+1) channels, which store reproduction setting values related to the control of audio reproduction in each channel.
  • The first common line is shared by the reproduction setting value registers and supplies the reproduction setting value from the outside.
  • The second common line is shared by the reproduction setting value registers and supplies a common writing signal for storing the reproduction setting value in the registers.
  • The association setting part selectively blocks the common writing signal supplied to the second common line for one or multiple reproduction setting value registers.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Audio systems with multiple channels, such as surround sound systems or immersive audio setups.
  • Virtual reality or augmented reality systems that require spatial audio reproduction.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient control and management of reproduction settings for audio in multiple channels.
  • Simplified interface for adjusting reproduction settings across different channels.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved audio reproduction experience with precise control over each channel.
  • Streamlined setup and configuration of audio systems with multiple channels.
  • Enhanced immersion and realism in virtual reality or augmented reality applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

the audio reproduction device includes a reproduction control part reproducing audio in each of (n+1) channels (n is a natural number), (n+1) reproduction setting value registers corresponding to the (n+1) channels and storing a reproduction setting value related to reproduction control of audio reproduced in each channel, a first common line which is shared by the (n+1) reproduction setting value registers and through which the reproduction setting value is supplied from the outside, a second common line which is shared by the (n+1) reproduction setting value registers and through which a common writing signal for storing the reproduction setting value in the reproduction setting value register receiving supply of the reproduction setting value via the first common line is supplied, and an association setting part selectively blocking the common writing signal supplied to the second common line with respect to one or a plurality of the reproduction setting value registers.
