Abstract A sample rate conversion system converts data of a first sample rate to data of a different second sample rate. The system involves an interpolator, operating at the first sample rate and includes a first interpolation network and a delay network. The first interpolation network interpolates the first sample rate data to provide upsampled interpolated data samples according to a first sample spacing. The delay network interpolates the upsampled interpolated data to provide delayed upsampled interpolated data samples, according to a second sample spacing of higher resolution than the first sample spacing, and preceding and succeeding an original sample position. The system also includes a digital filter operating at the second sample rate for filtering the higher resolution data samples to provide the second sample rate data.
