[0054] To provide a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0055] like Figure 1 The image shows an embodiment of an anti-feedback audio processing module according to this utility model. Figure 1 An embodiment of the anti-feedback audio processing module of the present invention shown includes: a power supply unit (not shown) for providing operating voltage, and an analog audio input unit 120, an analog-to-digital converter unit 130, a feedback suppression unit 140, a gain adjustment unit 150, an analog audio output unit 160, and a mute unit 170; the analog audio input unit 120 is connected to the analog-to-digital converter unit 130, and is used to receive external analog audio input and output it to the analog-to-digital converter unit 130, so that the external analog audio input is converted into digital audio output by the analog-to-digital converter unit 130; the feedback suppression unit 140 is connected to the analog-to-digital converter unit 160. Unit 130 is used to perform digital-to-analog conversion on the digital audio output and to suppress howling signals to obtain analog audio output; gain adjustment unit 150 is connected to feedback suppression unit 140 and analog audio output unit 160, and is used to adjust the gain of analog audio output, and output the adjusted analog audio output to an external audio playback device through analog audio output unit 160; mute unit 170 is connected to analog audio output unit 160 and feedback suppression unit 140, and is used to receive the control level output by feedback suppression unit 140 to bypass the analog audio output of analog audio output unit 160 to the external audio playback device.

[0056] Specifically, in the anti-feedback audio processing module (hereinafter referred to as the processing module), the power supply unit is used to provide operating voltage to the various working circuits inside the processing module. In one embodiment, the power supply unit can be connected to an external power supply or a power supply from an upstream circuit through various interfaces, and the voltage can be converted by various internal voltage conversion modules or circuits to obtain the operating voltage required by the processing module.

[0057] The analog audio input unit 120 receives analog audio signals generated by other audio modules or devices (corresponding to external analog audio input). The analog audio signal is then converted to a digital audio signal (corresponding to digital audio output) by the analog-to-digital converter unit 130. Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the analog-to-digital conversion unit 130 may include an analog-to-digital conversion chip U8 and its peripheral circuitry. The feedback suppression unit 140 performs digital-to-analog conversion on the digital audio output and performs feedback signal suppression processing to obtain the corresponding analog audio output. This analog audio output is then adjusted by the gain adjustment unit 150 and output to the next-level device for audio playback via the analog audio output unit 160. The mute unit 170 is used to bypass the output of the analog audio output unit 160 according to the control signal output by the feedback suppression unit 140 to prevent feedback from occurring when the external audio playback device plays the analog audio output.

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the analog audio output unit 160 includes a single-ended to differential converter circuit 161 and an output interface circuit 162. The input terminal of the single-ended to differential converter circuit 161 is connected to the output terminal of the gain adjustment unit 150, and the output terminal of the single-ended to differential converter circuit 161 is connected to the input terminal of the mute unit 170 and the input terminal of the output interface circuit 162. The output terminal of the output interface circuit 162 is used to connect to an external audio playback device. Specifically, in the analog audio output unit 160, the signal output by the gain adjustment unit 150 is first converted into a differential signal by the single-ended to differential converter circuit 161, and then output to the corresponding external audio playback device through the output interface circuit 162. The mute unit 170 is connected between the single-ended to differential converter circuit 161 and the output interface circuit 162 to mute the output of the single-ended to differential converter circuit 161 to prevent feedback audio from entering other devices through the output interface circuit 162. It can be understood that the output interface circuit 162 can be configured according to the type of device to be connected.

[0059] In one specific embodiment, the mute unit 170 includes a pop-tone suppressor U9, resistors R77, R78, R79, and R80, and capacitors C84, C85, C87, and C88.

The second terminal of resistor R79 is connected to the control level output terminal of the feedback suppression unit 140, and the second terminals of capacitor C85 and resistor R80 are grounded. The CPB terminal of the POP sound suppressor U9 is grounded via capacitor C88, and the SET terminal is grounded via capacitor C87. Specifically, when the mute condition is triggered, the mute unit 170 generates a low-impedance path to ground, bypassing and shunting the abnormal audio signal current to ground, ensuring that abnormal current surge noise does not travel to subsequent stages. In actual operation, the POP sound suppressor U9 ensures that the output of the single-ended to differential converter circuit 161 is allowed to be output externally through the output interface circuit 162 only when the power supply unit is working normally, reducing howling noise during playback. Meanwhile, the POP tone suppressor U9 can also control the bypass process according to the control level received by its MUTE pin, so as to shut down the output of the single-ended to differential conversion circuit 161 through the output interface circuit 162 as needed.
