Smart Hearing Module24-bit DSP8-ch WDRC1.5–2 mo battery

The JSZ2698 integrates an acoustic sensing element, a front-end amplifier/bias stage and a 24-bit DSP in one device — a complete chain from pickup and pre-amp to digital audio processing and a differential driver that feeds the receiver directly. A hearing aid or PSAP needs only a battery, a receiver and buttons around it. Powered by a single zinc-air button cell at ~0.9 mA total. Offered as BAVC (analog volume) and BDVC (digital volume).

Key Features

Six capabilities built for the voice chainWhy JSZ2698

Full chain, one device

Pickup, pre-amp, DSP and class-D driver closed in a single package — replacing the analog-front-end + DSP + amp split, shortening the analog path and cutting noise coupling.

8-ch WDRC

24-bit audio DSP with up to 8-channel WDRC, adaptive noise reduction and feedback cancellation, 8-band GEQ and 4 biquad IIRs.

Direct-driven receiver

Zero-bias class-D differential output drives balanced-armature or dynamic receivers directly: 30 mA / 20 Ω / 95 dB DR — no external amp or coupling caps.

One button cell

Runs straight off a 1.0–1.5 V zinc-air cell with internal LDOs and a 3.3 V charge pump; a size-675 cell lasts ~1.5–2 months at 12 h/day.

3 modes, memory

Up to 3 programs cycled by one button (INT3n); volume and mode survive power-off, with key-tone feedback.

I2C provisioning

A 256 kb on-chip EEPROM is programmed over I2C (400 kbps) — firmware and WDRC fitting to the user's audiogram.
