Abstract

A signal processing system and a method thereof are disclosed, using a differential amplifier to extract sensed signals associated with headphone wear status generated by the diaphragm of a headphone and transmitted to a sense ADC for digitization. To exclude residual music signal in the extracted sensed signals for subsequent processing, a temporary memory is provided to match and synchronize a round-trip delay in the signal processing system. The round-trip delay is computed to adjust the depth and clock speed of a buffer/FIFO of the temporary memory to eliminate residual music signal in order to separate the sensed signal of the headphone unit diaphragm displacement and use the extracted sensed signal as a reference source for subsequent analysis and auto-control and/or signal compensation.
