HB-NEDSP1068 

 

1. Introduction 

The NEDSP1068 module is a small DSP noise cancellation module, designed mainly 
for cleaning up noisy voice communications in the microphone path.  It is based on the 
proven bhi NEDSP1061 pcb module, but has the added feature of an on-board AGC 
mic preamplifier with various options.  This enables the module to be fitted easily into 
the microphone path of a target audio system, as well as in the receive path for use with 
line level audio signals.   There are two options:  The basic module is the NEDSP1068-
PCBA, which has an adjustable AGC mic pre-amplifier circuit, and is able to operate 
with either an external electret or dynamic microphone.  The NEDSP1068-PCBA-MIC 
has an on-board SMD microphone, and the adjustable AGC MIC pre-amplifier circuit.
