An integrated per-channel PCM encoder based on interpolation
Bruce A. Wooley, J.L. Henry · IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits · 1979
Describes a novel technique called interpolation which has been used to integrate a per channel PCM encoder in a standard digital circuit technology. This encoder converts voiceband analog signals to both an oversampled 1-bit code and uniform PCM with /spl mu/-law companding noise. The circuit comprises approximately 550 integrated injection logic gates together with a resistive digital-to-analog converter, a voltage reference, and a simple differential amplifier. The encoder is part of a full PCM codec chip set suitable for a broad range of voiceband telecommunication applications.
