Abstract: The aim is for an LC oscillator circuit of a hearing apparatus to be operated on a sustained basis in a desired frequency range. To this end, a hearing apparatus is proposed having an oscillator and a trimming facility for trimming the oscillation frequency of the oscillator. A control facility controls the oscillation frequency of the oscillator with the aid of the trimming facility in accordance with a predetermined desired value. An automatic self-trimming of a wireless transmission system in a hearing apparatus and in particular in a hearing device is thus possible.

Abstract: The communication device in a hearing aid needs to be optimized with respect to spatial requirements and power consumption. To this end, provision is made for an inductor in an oscillator circuit to be used simultaneously as an antenna. Besides reducing the number of components, this also reduces the power consumption. Further optimization in terms of energy can be achieved by virtue of a comparator being used to actuate a controllable current source such that energy is fed into the oscillator circuit only during a half-cycle.

Abstract: In a hearing aid having an input transducer (2), a useful signal processor (4 through 9) having an output stage (9), and an output transducer (11), whereby a first time-discrete useful signal processing is provided preceding the output stage (9), and controlled by a sampling signal, a second time-discrete useful signal processing different therefrom is simultaneously employed without disturbing influences. To that end, a second time-discrete useful signal processing with a pulse-duration modulation is provided in the output stage (9), this being formed by a delta signal, whereby the sampling signal and the delta signal are derived from only one oscillator (12).

Abstract: In a circuit arrangement having a switching amplifier (10), particularly for hearing aids, for limiting a pulse-width-modulated signal (S3) that is formed for a low-frequency signal (S1) and a higher-frequency delta signal (S2), a limitation of the output signal from the switching amplifier is achieved without a reduction in gain given only slight distortions. To that end, the pulse-width-modulated signal (S3) is supplied to a circuit (5; 14; 18) which modifies the width (D1, D2, D4) of individual pulses in the pulse-width-modulated signal (S3), whose width (D1, D2, D4) is longer or/and shorter than a maximum or minimum pulse width D3; D5) prescribable by the circuit (5; 14; 18). The pulse-width-modulated signal (S5; S6) modified by the circuit (5; 14; 18) can be supplied to the switching amplifier (10) as an input signal.
