Abstract:
An application processor may include a host processor, a voice trigger system and an audio subsystem electrically connected to a system bus. The voice trigger system may be configured to perform a voice trigger operation and to issue a trigger event. The audio subsystem may be configured to replay an audio output stream through an audio interface. A direct bus may be configured to provide a communication path between the voice trigger system and the audio subsystem during a barge-in condition in which the voice trigger operation and the replay of the audio output stream are performed together. The application processor may be configured to generate compensated trigger data by performing an echo cancellation with respect to microphone data received from a microphone, and the voice trigger system may be configured to perform the voice trigger operation during the barge-in condition based on the compensated trigger data.
