Pcm onebit pulse density: bit polarity · case 01

Output bit polarity is inverted for the stipulated density link.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 8 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

Output bit polarity is inverted for the stipulated density link.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use the stated conversion contract at bit polarity.

Unsuccessful approach: Returning amplitude quanta violates the one-bit output representation.

Case contract

Convert bounded nonnegative PCM levels no greater than denominator into a deterministic one-bit pulse-density stream, preserving fractional accumulator state.

Why this case matters

Offline PCM interchange uses these exact bounded packet and sample representation decisions.

Verification & scope

Stipulated finite model; no claim of hardware timing or full file-format conformance. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
