Abstract

A system may include a digital delta-sigma modulator configured to receive a digital audio input signal and quantize the digital audio input signal into a quantized signal, a filter configured to receive the quantized signal and perform filtering on the quantized signal to generate a filtered quantized signal, the filter having a variable group delay, and a current-mode digital-to-analog converter configured to receive the filtered quantized signal and convert the filtered quantized signal into an equivalent current-mode analog audio signal.
