  • Patent number: 7576665
    Abstract: A system and a method are provided for receiving analog and digital audio input via a single audio input connector. The method includes receiving an input signal from a single audio input connector, splitting the received input signal into a first input signal and a second input signal, filtering the first input signal to pass a digital signal, filtering the second input signal to pass an analog signal, digitizing the filtered analog signal, and multiplexing the filtered digital signal and the filtered digitized analog signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20090135854
    Abstract: A system and a method are provided for clock synchronization. The method includes receiving a new transmitter timestamp based upon a transmitter clock, determining a new transmitter timestamp delta between the new transmitter timestamp and a previous transmitter timestamp, determining a new receiver timestamp delta between a new receiver timestamp and a previous receiver timestamp, comparing the new receiver timestamp delta to the new transmitter timestamp delta, and adjusting a receiver clock to minimize a compared difference between the new receiver timestamp delta and the new transmitter timestamp delta. The new receiver timestamp is determined upon reception of the new transmitter timestamp. The previous receiver timestamp is determined upon reception of the previous transmitter timestamp.
