Abstract

A audio codec includes a first analog to digital converter for producing a first one-bit data stream, a second one-bit data stream is received from a digital microphone. A selection module produces a one-bit output signal that is the first one-bit data stream when a selection signal is in a first state, and produces a the one-bit output signal that is the second one-bit data stream when the selection signal is in a second state. A decimation and filter module produces a down sampled signal based on the one-bit output signal.
