Sensory Silicon Advantages

Akustica Sensory Silicon microphones are inherently superior to conventional and multi-chip microphones in virtually every way:

• Smaller and Thinner – Can be mounted almost anywhere, including bezels and inside products too thin or small for other microphones.
• Digital Output – Eliminates costly shielded cabling required to protect analog signals from RFI/EMI, allowing microphones to be located almost anywhere.
• Surface Mountable – Compatible with automated manufacturing systems, reducing manufacturing costs and increasing end product reliability.
• Acoustics – Highly matched microphones produce more consistent audio characteristics for effective arrays and predictable, reliable product performance.
• Noise Immunity – Acoustic microstructures are highly immune to magnetic interference and mechanical vibration, while digital chip output is unaffected by RF and EM noise present in consumer electronics devices.
• Low Power – For longer life in battery powered products.
• Standard CMOS – For manufacturability, reliability, low cost and quick design cycles.
