MEMS microphone with a high signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of 69dB
"IM69D130" is a Digital MEMS microphone provided by Infineon.
It achieves 130dB SPL at maximum input sound pressure level (AOP: THD=10%) and 128dB SPL at THD=1%.
This article explains the following three features of the IM69D130.
- 69dB signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for high-quality speech acquisition
- Acquisition of "whispered voice" is possible with a wide dynamic range
- Easy to solder to the printed circuit board. Supports reflow soldering!
1. 69dB signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for high-quality voice acquisition
The IM69D130 achieves a high signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of 69dB. Not only can you get high-quality voice, but you can also get clear voice even at low volumes.
Therefore, it is ideal for applications such as:
- hands free headset
- Digital camera
- consumer electronics
- Medical devices such as hearing aids
- Hands-free call set for automobiles, etc.
Example of use | Details and challenges |
home video | Homes are usually quiet environments where microphone noise can easily dominate. There are various capturing, playback conditions and equipment. |
child | The subject moves well and has a soft (quiet) voice. |
Social media | High image quality is required for maximum viewer engagement. |
professional video | Job applications, interviews, recruitment, presentations, etc. High image quality is important for differentiating applicants and businesses. |
music | High sound quality is important to ensure a natural recording. Diverse capturing and playback conditions present challenges. |
performance | School performance can be difficult. Low voice, distance to target, ambient noise |
Nature | The recorded sound has a low or very low sound pressure level. |
Monitoring | The sound it picks up is small and comes from a distance. |
2. Capable of capturing whispered voices with a wide dynamic range
The IM69D130 has a wide dynamic range of 105dB and high output linearity of up to 130dBSPL.
This makes it ideal for sensitive applications with low noise audio signals like whispers to rock concerts, excellent hit rate, and weak to strong signals.
Example of use | Details and challenges |
pop/ rock music concert |
Concerts are usually very loud. High sound quality is the key to good and natural acoustic performance. |
sporting event | A situation where either the sport (such as motorsports) or the crowd (such as an ice hockey stadium) is very large. |
Transportation | There is a lot of low frequency noise. |
Wind | Wind is a common cause of poor quality audio/video recordings taken outdoors. A high AOP is useful for certain types of wind conditions. |
3. Easy to solder to printed circuit board. Supports reflow soldering!
The IM69D130 MEMS microphone can withstand temperatures up to 260°C.
Due to its high heat resistance, it can be easily soldered to printed circuit boards. It can be used without problems on fully automated production lines including solder reflow.
