Definitions
- the present invention relates to a hearing aid according to the preamble of claim 1, a method for producing a hearing aid according to the preamble of claim 9 and a module for connection to a
- Signal processing unit of a hearing aid according to the preamble of claim 11.
- Device configurations must be created, labeled and controlled accordingly. In sales, a corresponding storage is required. When adapting the device, different procedures would have to be selected, depending on the device configuration.
- Identification unit is operatively connected via a resistance measuring unit with the input of the comparison unit.
- resistors with a very large number of different, exactly measurable resistance values are available or manufacturable, as discrete elements or manufactured in thin or thick film technology, and that the prevailing resistance value simply and quickly essentially with a current Voltage measurement can be determined.
- a resistor is excellent, to be used as an identification unit.
- an identification resistor When we speak of an identification resistor below, we mean an impedance element which, measured at its two terminals, covers a wide frequency range, e.g. Up to 100 KHz, has a vast majority real part.
- Such an identification resistor may consist of a single resistor or of a plurality of resistors connected in series and / or in parallel. The measured
- impedance has a far predominant real part, although the presence of an imaginary part can not be ruled out, for example due to parasitic capacitances or inductances.
- the built-in peripheral unit is recognized on the basis of the value of its identification resistor. By comparing this resistance value with resistance value possibilities stored in the identification possibilities storage unit, together with the respective units own parameters such as operating parameters for the signal processing unit, it is possible to use these sizes according to the present hardware configuration.
- the hearing aid identifies itself in terms of hardware configuration.
- the fact that the output of the comparison unit is operatively connected to the input of a configuration memory unit and a connection is provided on the hearing aid, which is operatively connected to the output of this configuration memory unit there is the possibility to read the hardware configuration of the hearing aid. This often eliminates the need for a label, such as on the packaging, and eliminates the possibility of errors in production control, distribution and fitting of hearing aids. It is also excluded to test, deliver or adapt a present hearing aid based on a supposedly different configuration as far as peripheral hardware units are concerned.
- the general procedure according to WO 99/09799 entails, but using a very simple, fast and accurate identification technique, namely according to the present invention, means identification resistance.
- the peripheral unit has two terminals, which are connected exclusively by the identification resistor. This rules out that in the case of the identifying resistance measurement of the peripheral unit in question, separate input impedances influence the identification.
- the output of the comparison unit is operatively connected to an operating control input at the signal processing unit.
- Hearing aid is, as already mentioned, the output of the comparison unit with the input of a
- Configuration memory unit operatively connected and in a further embodiment, a connection is provided on the hearing aid, which is connected to the output of the
- Configuration memory unit is operatively connected. In this way, the prevailing constellation can be read at any time according to the present invention at a present hearing device.
- the peripheral unit is a sensor, an actuator, a transceiver, a manual selector switch, a potentiometer, an acoustic / electrical input transducer or an electrical / mechanical output transducer.
- the abovementioned peripheral unit is a loudspeaker unit.
- the identity of the peripheral unit is automatically queried and stored by means of a resistance measurement.
- the operation of the signal processing unit is controlled or selected and the implementation of a foreign operation provided for the intended peripheral units is preferably blocked.
- signals at connections to and / or from the signal processing unit are interpreted differently or processed differently.
- a module for installation on a signal processing unit of a hearing aid which has two connections, which are connected exclusively by an identification resistor.
- this module is a speaker assembly for a hearing aid.
- FIG. 1 shows the basic principle of the hearing aid according to the invention on the basis of a signal flow / functional block diagram
- Fig. 2 shows schematically the example of a loudspeaker module, a usable according to the invention peripheral unit according to the present invention.
- FIG. 1 in the form of a signal flow / functional block diagram, a hearing aid according to the invention is shown with, as an example, two peripheral units 3 E and 3 A designed according to the invention.
- a signal processing unit 1 which performs a digital signal processing and / or an analog, as shown with the DSP unit Ia and the amplifier unit Ib, has inputs and outputs.
- the output of the peripheral unit 3 E is connected to an input E of the signal processing unit 1, an output A of the signal processing unit 1 to the input of the peripheral unit 3 A.
- the peripheral units which are operatively connected to outputs and / or inputs of the signal processing unit 1 on the input side and / or output side, may be, for example, sensors, eg microphones, general acoustic / electrical converters, communication components, eg transceivers, control units, Eg program switching units, volume adjustment units to actuators, such as electrical / mechanical output transducer, eg speaker units.
- the peripheral unit 3 E as a microphone unit
- the unit 3 A as a loudspeaker unit, commonly called “receiver” or “speaker”, shown in Fig. 1.
- each of the two provided peripheral units 3 is provided with an identification resistor, so the unit 3 E with an identification resistor Ri, the peripheral unit 3 A with a
- Identification resistor R 2 The value of the respective identification resistors R is uniquely identifying for the respectively associated peripheral unit. After hardware configuration of the hearing aid, an identification cycle is triggered. In this, as shown schematically with the cycle unit 7, for example sequentially, all identification resistors R are connected to an impedance measuring unit 8, to which the identification resistor R of the provided peripheral
- a DC resistance measurement is preferably performed by feeding a predetermined current to the identification resistors and measuring the resulting voltage across the respective resistors or, conversely, by specifying a predetermined voltage and measuring the resulting current.
- An impedance measurement by means of alternating current is quite possible, but the influence of parasitic reactances on the measurement result depending on the selected frequency can be annoying.
- Impedance measuring unit 8 for example, sequentially appearing measurement results corresponding to the values Ri, R 2 ... are supplied to a comparison unit 9.
- the comparison unit 9 is at a second comparator connection a Identtechnischsowski- Memory unit 11 switched on.
- Identification options storage unit 11 all identification resistor values Ri, R 2 ... are stored, which are assigned to peripheral units that can be switched to the signal processing unit 1.
- the signal processing unit 1 can also have an identification mark, such as an identification resistor provided according to the invention, which is measured first via the cycle unit 7 and the impedance measuring unit 8 (not shown) and compared with a resistance value (not shown) identifying the identification option memory 11. If these resistance values coincide, this means that the intended identification possibilities storage unit 11 of the provided
- the identification resistance value at the signal processing unit 1 does not correspond to the resistance value that identifies the identification possibilities storage unit 11, then all further operations are aborted and e.g. acoustically or visually on the hearing aid or on a connection for an external station issued a warning signal.
- the comparison unit 9 based on the measured resistance values Ri, R 2 ..., it is determined which of the peripheral units defined in the identification option memory 11 are present in the present device configuration.
- a signal processing unit 1 for example of the type X and If peripheral units of the types M and N and W are connected, then the output unit of the comparison unit in a hearing device configuration memory 15 stores the device configuration XNW.
- the configuration memory 15 acts on the signal processing unit.
- one or more specific processing modes are activated on the signal processing unit 1.
- operating states corresponding to this configuration are thus selected and activated on the signal processing unit 1, for example specific programs on the digital one
- Signal processing unit Ia and / or settings such as gain settings on analog amplifiers Ib.
- Configuration memory unit 15 preferably led to an output HGA of the hearing aid, with which the hearing aid is identified in its individual configuration, for example on a fitting unit for the hearing aid.
- Fig. 2 is schematically and simplified a module or a peripheral unit shown according to the present Invention and, for example, the units 3 E and 3 a according to FIG. 1 accordingly.
- a preferred peripheral unit individually referred to as a module, their specific function corresponding inputs or outputs, the loudspeaker module shown in FIG. 2 inputs Ei and E 2 , whereupon the electrical drive signal for the speaker 17 is applied.
- An identification resistor R is provided on a module 3 according to the invention, which can preferably be measured via connections in such a way that the module has no or only negligible influence on the determination of the value of R by its own input impedances, as represented by dashed lines in Z.
- the identification resistor R is preferred and, as shown in FIG.
- a module according to the invention has its function corresponding connections for signal inputs and / or outputs and a further additional connection, and the
- Identification resistor R is connected between this additional terminal and one of the module's own terminals.
- an actual plug-and-play modular system for hearing aids is provided in a very simple manner, which allows to massively reduce the manufacturing costs, to minimize the connection configuration on a signal processing unit of the hearing aid, and in particular also faulty packaging, Misconfigurations, mismatches etc. due to human carelessness as far as possible to turn off, the identification technique used is extremely simple, safe and easy to handle in the sense of rapid identification.
