Digital hearing instrument technology
Inside your hearing system, the microphone,
analog-to-digital converter, digital signal
processor, receiver, and other specialized
components process sound that is directed
to the eardrum and auditory system.
The microphone picks up sound waves from the
air and converts them to electrical signals.
The analog-to-digital converter encodes the
electrical signals into a format that is usable
by the digital signal processor, which has been
programmed by your Audiologist or Hearing Care
Provider for your particular hearing loss. The
receiver converts the digitally processed signal
directly back into sound waves.
