MP23ABS1
High-performance MEMS audio sensor:
single-ended analog bottom-port microphone
Datasheet - production data
Description
The MP23ABS1 is a compact, low-power
microphone built with a capacitive sensing
element and an IC interface.
The sensing element, capable of detecting
acoustic waves, is manufactured using a
specialized silicon micromachining process to
produce audio sensors.
The MP23ABS1 has an acoustic overload point of
130 dBSPL with a typical 64 dB signal-to-noise
ratio.
RHLGA metal cap 5-lead
3.5 x 2.65 x 0.98 mm
The sensitivity of the MP23ABS1 is -38 dBV
±1 dB @ 94 dBSPL, 1 kHz.
Features
Single supply voltage operation 1.52 V - 3.6 V
Omnidirectional sensitivity
High signal-to-noise ratio
The MP23ABS1 is available in a package
compliant with reflow soldering and is guaranteed
to operate over an extended temperature range
from -40 °C to +85 °C.
High acoustic overload point: 130 dBSPL typ.
Applications
Package compliant with reflow soldering
Mobile phones
Enhanced RF immunity
Wearables
Ultra-flat frequency response
Hearables
Low latency
Smart speakers
Ultra-low-power: 150 μA max
Active noise-canceling headsets
ECOPACK, RoHS, and “Green” compliant
