RHYTHM SB3231
Pre-configured DSP System
for Hearing Aids
Description
O N S e m i c o n d u c t o r ’s R H Y T H M
t
S B 3 2 3 1 h y b r i d i s
a trimmer−configurable DSP system based on a four−channel
compression circuit featuring Adaptive Feedback Cancellation,
Adaptive Noise Reduction, and FrontWave static directionality.
Based on a phase cancellation method, Rhythm SB3231’s Adaptive
Feedback Reduction algorithm provides added stable gain to enable
extra gain and user comfort. It features rapid adjustment for dynamic
feedback situations and resistance to tonal inputs.
Rhythm SB3231’s Adaptive Noise Reduction monitors noise levels
independently in 64 individual bands and employs advanced
psychoacoustic models to provide user comfort.
The FrontWave directional system utilizes a pair of microphones to
create a fully customizable static polar pattern, such as bidirectional,
cardiod, hyper−cardiod and super−cardiod.
In addition to these adaptive algorithms, Rhythm SB3231 also
supports the following features: up to four channel WDRC,
low−distortion compression limiting, cross fading between audio
paths for click−free memory changes, eight−band graphic equalizer,
eight configurable generic biquad filters, programming speed
enhancements, in−channel squelch to attenuate microphone and
circuit noise in quiet environments, optional peak clipping, flexible
compression adjustments, volume control, rocker switch, noise
generation for Tinnitus treatment, and industry−leading security
features to avoid cloning and software piracy.
A trimmer interface supports manual circuit configuration. It
continuously monitors trimmer positions and translates them into the
hearing−aid parameters of choice. A Serial Data or I
2
C Interface
provides full programmability at the factory and in the field.
The Rhythm SB3231 hybrid contains a 256 kbit EEPROM intended
for programmable and trimmer based devices.

1. A device must internally provide a hold time of at least 300 ns for the PC_SDA signal to bridge the undefined region of the falling edge of PC_CLK.
2. The maximum t

has only to be met if the device does not stretch the LOW period (t

) of the PC_CLK signal.
3. A Fast−mode I

C−bus device can be used in a Standard−mode I

P250ns must then be met.
This will automatically be the case if the device does not stretch the LOW period of the PC_CLK signal. If such a device does stretch the
LOW period of the PC_CLK signal, it must output the next data bit to the PC_SDA line t
