A Low-Power Broad-Bandwidth Noise Cancellation VLSI Circuit Design for In-Ear Headphones
Abstract— Conventional active noise cancelling (ANC) headphones often perform well in reducing the low-frequency noise and isolating the high-frequency noise by earmuffs passively. The existing ANC systems often use high-speed digital signal processors to cancel out disturbing noise, which results in high power consumption for a commercial ANC headphone. The contribution of this paper can be classified into: 1) proper filter length selection; 2) low-power storage mechanism for convolution operation; and 3) high-throughput pipelining architecture. With these novel techniques, we develop an area-/power-efficient ANC circuit by using the TSMC 90-nm CMOS technology for in-ear headphone applications. The proposed feed forward filtered-x least mean square ANC circuit design provides the features of using lower operating frequency and consuming much less power that facilitate better performance than the conventional ANC headphones. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed design, a series of physical measurements is executed in an anechoic chamber. Measurement results show that the proposed high-performance/low-power circuit design can reduce disturbing noise of various frequency bands very well, and outperforms the existing works.< final year projects >
