ICS-40720

ICS-40720 Ultra-Low Noise Microphone with Differential Output APPLICATIONS GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ICS-40720 is an ultra-low noise, differential analog output, bottom-ported MEMS microphone. The ICS-40720 includes a MEMS microphone element, an impedance converter, a differential output amplifier and an enhanced RF package. The ICS-40720’s 70 dB SNR and ±2 dB sensitivity tolerance make it an excellent choice for microphone arrays and far field voice control applications. The ICS-40720 has a linear response up to 124 dB SPL with a differential output sensitivity specification of −32 dBV. It can be used in a single-ended mode with −38 dBV sensitivity and the same high SNR. The ICS-40720 is available in a small 4.00 mm × 3.00 mm × 1.20 mm surface-mount package.

This configuration is compatible with a fullydifferential codec input and provides the benefits of a balanced signal between the microphone and codec. A balanced analog audio signal provides rejection of common-mode noise that is present on both the positive and negative signals. SINGLE-ENDED OPERATION The ICS-40720 can be used as a single-ended microphone by using the signal from only one of the two output pins. In this configuration, the sensitivity will be 6 dB lower than the differential output, but with the same high SNR performance. Pin OUTPUT+ will output the non-inverted signal, relative to the acoustic input, while the OUTPUT− pin will output an inverted signal. The unused output pin should be left disconnected when the mic is used in single-ended mode; do not connect the unused pin to ground. Document Number: DS-000045 Revision: 1.4 Page 8 of 15 ICS-40720 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION CODEC CONNECTION The ICS-40720 output can be connected to a dedicated codec microphone input (see Figure 9) or to a high input impedance gain stage. A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed close to the ICS-40720 supply pin is used for testing and is recommended to adequately decouple the microphone from noise on the power supply. DC blocking capacitors are required at the outputs of the microphone. These capacitors create a high-pass filter with a corner frequency at fC = 1/(2π × C × R) where R is the input impedance of the codec. A minimum value of 2.2 μF is recommended in Figure 9 because the input impedance of some codecs can be as low as 2 kΩ at their highest PGA gain setting, which results in a high-pass filter corner frequency at 37 Hz.

Take care to avoid applying solder paste to the sound hole in the PCB. Figure 11 shows a suggested solder paste stencil pattern layout. The response of the ICS-40720 is not affected by the PCB hole size, as long as the hole is not smaller than the sound port of the microphone (0.75 mm, or 0.0295 inch, in diameter). A 1 mm (0.040 inch) diameter for the hole is recommended. Align the hole in the microphone package with the hole in the PCB. The exact degree of the alignment does not affect the performance of the microphone as long as the holes are not partially or completely blocked. Figure 10. Suggested PCB Land Pattern Layout Figure 11. Suggested Solder Paste Stencil Pattern Layout PCB MATERIAL AND THICKNESS The performance of the ICS-40720 is not affected by PCB thickness. The ICS-40720 can be mounted on either a rigid or flexible PCB. A flexible PCB with the microphone can be attached directly to the device housing with an adhesive layer. This mounting method offers a reliable seal around the sound port while providing the shortest acoustic path for good sound quality. Document Number: DS-000045 Revision: 1.4 Page 11 of 15 ICS-40720 HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS PICK AND PLACE EQUIPMENT The MEMS microphone can be handled using standard pick-and-place and chip shooting equipment. Take care to avoid damage to the MEMS microphone structure as follows: • Use a standard pickup tool to handle the microphone. Because the microphone hole is on the bottom of the package, the pickup tool can make contact with any part of the lid surface. • Do not pick up the microphone with a vacuum tool that makes contact with the bottom side of the microphone. Do not pull air out of or blow air into the microphone port. • Do not use excessive force to place the microphone on the PCB. REFLOW SOLDER For best results, the soldering profile must be in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer of the solder paste used to attach the MEMS microphone to the PCB. It is recommended that the solder reflow profile not exceed the limit conditions specified in Figure 1 and Table 3. BOARD WASH When washing the PCB, ensure that water does not make contact with the microphone port. Do not use blow-off procedures or ultrasonic cleaning.
