Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to crossover circuits for reducing impedance response variance of a speaker. A speaker includes at least one driver and one or more electrical components. The speaker has a baseline frequency and impedance response when no associated series resistance or impedance is connected to the speaker. A pair of terminals is used for connecting the speaker to external components. Connecting the speaker to external components results in an associated series resistance or impedance, that causes the frequency response of the speaker to vary from the baseline frequency response across various frequency ranges. A crossover circuit is connected to at least one of the pair of input terminals. The crossover circuit includes electrical components configured to reduce the impedance response variance inherent to the speaker, thus reducing variances in the frequency response caused by impedances and resistances placed in series with the speaker.

Embodiment
Embodiments of the invention relate to the frequency dividing circuit that is used to reduce the loudspeaker impedance response variance.Loud speaker comprises at least one driver and one or more electronic component.When not having associated series resistance or impedance to be connected to loud speaker, loud speaker has baseline impedance and frequency response.With terminal to loud speaker is connected to outer member.Loud speaker is connected to outer member can produces associated series resistance or impedance, this associated series resistance or impedance cause the frequency response of loud speaker to be different from the bareline heart rate response.Frequency dividing circuit is connected at least one terminal of above-mentioned input terminal centering.Frequency dividing circuit comprises and being configured in order to reduce because of connecting the electronic component of the frequency response deviation that outer member causes.
For example, Fig. 1 illustrates the frequency dividing circuit 101 of the impedance response variance that is used to reduce two-way speaker 102.Two-way speaker 102 comprises woofer 103 and tweeter 104.Woofer 103 is connected to each other by multiple circuit element with tweeter 104 and is connected to input terminal 106 and 107, and described circuit element comprises capacitor C111, inductor L112, resistor R 113, capacitor C114, reaches inductor L116.Frequency dividing circuit 101 is connected on the input terminal 106 and 107 of two-way speaker 102, and the impedance in parallel with the impedance of two-way speaker 102 is provided.
According to the component value in the two-way speaker 102, the impedance configuration (or tuning) of frequency dividing circuit 101 is become corresponding particular frequency range.In this particular frequency range, the fluctuation of the impedance that frequency dividing circuit 101 minimizing two-way speakers 102 are produced.That is to say, according to the value of capacitor 111, inductor 112, resistor 113, capacitor 114, inductor 116 and the characteristic electron parameter of unit of measurement and woofer 103 and tweeter 104, frequency dividing circuit 101 configurations (or tuning) are become to reduce the impedance fluctuations of two-way speaker 102 in the characteristic frequency section.
Fig. 2 is illustrated under the difference configuration of the speaker system that for example is similar to two-way speaker 102, produces the graph curve of impedance in each frequency place.Curve 201 is illustrated in speaker system and does not comprise when being configured to reduce the frequency dividing circuit of impedance fluctuations the frequency response of speaker system.Shown in curve 201, the impedance that speaker system produced has fluctuation in different frequency ranges.
For example, impedance fluctuations comes across among Fig. 2 with between about 4Hz shown in the frequency range 204 and the 200Hz.As shown in the figure, the impedance that speaker system produced rises to 7 ohm in the frequency range that is roughly 4Hz to 30Hz from about 3 ohm, in the frequency range that is roughly 30Hz to 60Hz from about 7 ohmmic drops to 4 ohm, rise to 8 ohm in the frequency range that is roughly 60Hz to 100Hz from about 4 ohm, and subsequently in the frequency range that is roughly 100Hz to 200Hz from about 8 ohmmic drops to 3 ohm.
More significant impedance fluctuations comes across among Fig. 2 with between about 200Hz shown in the frequency range 203 and the 10kHz.As shown in the figure, the impedance that speaker system produced rises to more than 23 ohm from about 3 ohm in the frequency range that is roughly 200Hz to 20kHz, and subsequently in the frequency range that is roughly 2kHz to 10kHz from reducing to about 6 ohm more than 23 ohm.
When curve 202 is illustrated in speaker system and comprises the frequency dividing circuit (for example frequency dividing circuit 101) that is configured to reduce impedance fluctuations, the impedance response of speaker system.This frequency dividing circuit can become to produce the effect that reduces impedance fluctuations on frequency range 203 and dispose (or tuning) by select the to have the particular characteristics parameter multiple electronic component (for example resistor, capacitor, inductor or the like) of (for example 4 ohm, 90 microfarads, 2.0 milihenries or the like).The selected electronic component of frequency dividing circuit can be one another in series and/or be connected in parallel.
Shown in curve 202, the impedance fluctuations on frequency range 204 is similar to curve 201.Yet the impedance fluctuations on frequency range 203 significantly reduces.As shown in the figure, rise to 5 ohm in the frequency range impedance that is roughly 200Hz to 10kHz from about 3 ohm, fluctuation is about 2 ohm.Therefore, in particular frequency range (frequency range 203), the impedance fluctuations (illustrating with curve 202) of speaker system that comprises configuration (or tuning) back frequency dividing circuit is significantly less than not comprising configuration (or tuning) fluctuation (illustrating with curve 201) of the same speaker system of frequency dividing circuit afterwards.Therefore, when being connected in series to series resistance or impedance on the loud speaker, this minimizing of impedance deviation can cause the corresponding minimizing of frequency response deviation.
