Abstract
An application-specific integrated circuit includes a first analog stage having a first filtering means responsible for carrying out a filtering of the high-pass type on an input signal so as to deliver an intermediate signal, and a second digital stage having a second filtering means capable of introducing various first time constants depending on combinations of coefficient values and responsible for correcting any distortion potentially present in the intermediate signal, wherein the first filtering means includes an assembly of electronic components configured in parallel and/or in series and capable of introducing various second time constants depending on their combination.
