System and method for determining voice coil offset or temperature

A method for determining a displacement offset of a voice coil of a speaker, comprising: providing a drive signal comprised of a program content signal and a test signal to the voice coil of the speaker; determining at least one value representative of an impedance of the voice coil according to a v...

Zusammenfassung:	A method for determining a displacement offset of a voice coil of a speaker, comprising: providing a drive signal comprised of a program content signal and a test signal to the voice coil of the speaker; determining at least one value representative of an impedance of the voice coil according to a voice coil voltage and a voice coil current, wherein the voice coil voltage and the voice coil current result from, at least, the test signal; determining whether the at least one value indicates that an offset displacement of the voice coil exceeds a predetermined offset distance; and reducing a magnitude of the drive signal provided to the voice coil if the at least one value indicates that the offset displacement of the voice coil exceeds the predetermined offset threshold.
