Detailed Description
In order to make the technical content of the present invention clearer, preferred embodiments are specifically illustrated as follows.
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a sound receiving apparatus according to the present invention is shown.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the sound receiving apparatus 1 may be a device such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a desktop computer, or a part of the components of the device, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The sound receiving device 1 includes a power supply terminal V0, a linear regulator module 10, a microphone 20, a digital modulation module 30, and a current limiting resistor R. The sound receiving apparatus 1 may further include capacitors C1, C2 and a ground G, and the functions of the capacitors C1, C2 and the ground G are not important for the improvement of the present invention, and therefore, are not described herein again. It should be noted that the architecture shown in fig. 1 is only an illustration, and the invention is not limited to the sound receiving apparatus 1 having only the components shown in fig. 1.
The power supply terminal V0 is used to supply the power signal S1. The linear regulator module 10 is electrically connected to the power supply terminal V0 and is configured to receive the power signal S1 and convert the power signal into a first current signal S3, wherein the first current signal S3 is a current capable of normally driving the digital modulation module 30. The linear regulator module 10 is further connected to a control signal input terminal 41, and the control signal input terminal 41 is used for a user to determine whether to transmit the control signal S2 to the linear regulator module 10. The microphone 20 is used for receiving an external sound signal. The digital modulation module 30 is electrically connected to the microphone 20 and the linear regulator module 10 for receiving the first current signal S3. When the digital modulation module 30 receives the first current signal S3 with sufficient current, the external audio signal can be processed to become a digital audio signal D (as shown in fig. 2), and finally outputted from the audio signal output terminal 42.
The current limiting resistor R is electrically connected to the power supply terminal V0 and is connected in parallel with the linear regulator module 10. When the linear regulator module 10 receives the control signal S2 from the control signal input terminal 41, the linear regulator module 10 stops providing the first current signal S3. The power signal S1 of the power supply terminal V0 is transmitted through the current limiting resistor R to generate a second current signal S4. Therefore, the digital modulation module 30 only receives the second current signal S4, and the second current signal S4 has an amperage less than that of the first current signal S3, which is not enough to drive the digital modulation module 30 to normally operate, for example, when the digital modulation module 30 normally operates, the first current signal S3 may be 600uA of the working current for modulating the external audio signal, and the second signal current S4 may be 200uA of the working current for modulating the noise signal during abnormal operation, i.e., the amperage of the second current signal S4 is less than or equal to about one third of the amperage of the first current signal S3, but the invention is not limited thereto. Therefore, the digital modulation module 30 cannot obtain enough driving current, so that the processed external audio signal becomes a noise signal N (as shown in fig. 2) and is output to the audio signal output terminal 42. When the linear regulator module 10 receives another control signal S2 again, the first current signal S3 is restored to be provided to the digital modulation module 30, so that the digital modulation module 30 can regenerate the normal digital audio signal D.
As shown in fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of waveforms related to digital sound signals and noise signals according to the present invention. When the digital modulation module 30 receives the first current signal S3 with sufficient amperage, the digital modulation module 30 can normally output the digital sound signal D. At time t1, the linear regulator module 10 receives the control signal S2, and therefore stops outputting the first current signal S3. At this time, when the digital modulation module 30 can only receive the second current signal S4 with a less than sufficient ampere value, the digital modulation module 30 will output the noise signal N. At time t2, the linear regulator module 10 receives the new control signal S2 again and resumes outputting the first current signal S3. At this time, the digital modulation module 30 is normally driven by receiving the first current signal S3 with sufficient amperage to output the digital sound signal D. It should be noted that the noise signal N can no longer be restored back to the original digital sound signal D.
It should be noted that, the modules of the sound receiving apparatus 1 may be configured by a hardware device, a software program combined with a hardware device, a firmware combined with a hardware device, and the like, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned manner. In addition, the present embodiment only illustrates the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and all possible combinations and modifications are not described in detail to avoid redundancy. However, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above modules or components are not necessarily all necessary. And that other, more detailed, existing modules or components may be included to practice the invention. Each module or component may be omitted or modified as desired, and no other module or component may necessarily exist between any two modules.
Referring to fig. 3, a flowchart of the method for generating the noise signal according to the present invention is shown. It should be noted that, although the method for generating the noise signal according to the present invention is described below by taking the above-mentioned audio receiving apparatus 1 as an example, the method for generating the noise signal according to the present invention is not limited to the use of the audio receiving apparatus 1 having the same configuration as described above.
First, step 301 is performed: an external sound signal is received.
The microphone 20 may receive an external sound signal.
Then, step 302 is performed: and judging whether the control signal is received or not.
The linear regulator module 10 determines whether the control signal S2 is received from the control signal input terminal 41.
If the linear regulator module 10 does not receive the control signal S2, the method proceeds to step 303: the power supply signal is received to be converted into a first current signal.
At this time, the linear regulator module 10 receives the power signal S1 from the power supply terminal V0 to convert the power signal into the first current signal S3.
Then, step 304 is performed: the external sound signal is processed by the driving of the first current signal to become a digital sound signal.
Then, the digital modulation module 30 receives the first current signal S3 with sufficient current, and then processes the external audio signal to form the digital audio signal D.
If the linear regulator module 10 receives the control signal S2, the process proceeds to step 305: the supply of the first current signal is stopped.
At this time, after the linear regulator module 10 receives the control signal S2 from the control signal input terminal 41, the linear regulator module 10 stops providing the first current signal S3.
Then, step 306 is performed: the power signal is transmitted through the current limiting resistor to generate a second current signal to the digital modulation module.
The power signal S1 of the power supply terminal V0 is transmitted only through the current limiting resistor R to generate the second current signal S4, wherein the amperage of the second current signal S4 is less than the amperage of the first current signal S3. Thus, the digital modulation module 30 only receives the second current signal S4.
Then, step 307 is performed: generating and outputting a noise signal.
Since the digital modulation module 30 cannot obtain enough driving current, it can only convert the external sound signal into the noise signal N.
Finally, step 308 is performed: after receiving a new control signal, the first current signal is restored.
Finally, when the linear regulator module 10 receives the new control signal S2 again, the first current signal S3 is output again. The digital modulation module 30 normally outputs the digital sound signal D by receiving the first current signal S3 with sufficient amperage.
It should be noted that the method for generating the noise signal according to the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned sequence of steps, and the sequence of the steps can be changed as long as the object of the present invention is achieved.
Therefore, the sound receiving apparatus 1 of the present invention can easily generate the noise signal N without installing an additional hardware switch. And the noise signal N can not be restored into the digital sound signal D any more, thus meeting the requirement of protecting the information privacy.
It should be noted that the above embodiments only illustrate the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and all possible combinations of the variations are not described in detail for avoiding redundancy. However, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above modules or components are not necessarily all necessary. And that other, more detailed, existing modules or components may be included to practice the invention. Each module or component may be omitted or modified as desired, and no other module or component may necessarily exist between any two modules. The scope of the claims should be determined only by the appended claims, and not by the broadest interpretation of the following claims.
