Publication number: 20220377470Abstract: Disclosed is a hearing aid configured to be worn at a user's ear. The hearing aid comprises an input transducer for generating one or more input signals based on a received audio signal. The hearing aid comprises a signal processor configured for processing the one or more input signals. The hearing aid comprises an output transducer for providing an audio output signal based on an output signal from the signal processor. The hearing aid comprises a switched-mode power supply (SMPS) for providing electric power to the hearing aid. The switched-mode power supply (SMPS) comprises a first coil component and a second coil component. The first coil component and the second coil component are arranged to provide electromagnetic noise reduction in the hearing aid.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2022Publication date: November 24, 2022Applicant: GN Hearing A/SInventors: Christopher Wessel LINDBERG, Kim Fälling ANDERSEN
