=== How a CD Player Works ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:CDplayerdiagram.jpg|Description]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, a digital signal &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ x(kt) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is read from the CD and then convolved with a pulse function &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\ p(t) &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in the D/A converter. The result in the time domain looks like this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:DAOutput.jpg|Description]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
\hat x(t) = \sum_{k=-\infty}^\infty x(kT)p(t - kT) = p(t) *\sum_{k=-\infty}^\infty x(kT) \delta (t - kT) &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Let&#039;s look at this result in frequency space. Note that convolution in time means multiplication in frequency.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[Image:DAfreqout.jpg|Description]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\hat X(f) = 1/T \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty X(f - n/T) \cdot P(f)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
where &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;P(f) = \int_{-T/2}^{T/2} e^{j2\pi ft} \, dt = T sinc(fT)&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The low pass filter then knocks the high frequencies out of the signal coming from the D/A converter, which smoothes out the edges of the reproduced sine wave &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\hat x(t)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in time. This output waveform then drives the speaker, thereby recreating the original sound stored on the CD.&lt;br /&gt;
