Description
The MP34DB01 is an ultra-compact, low-power,
omnidirectional, digital MEMS microphone built
with a capacitive sensing element and an IC
interface with stereo operation capability.
The sensing element, capable of detecting
acoustic waves, is manufactured using a
specialized silicon micromachining process
dedicated to produce audio sensors.
The IC interface is manufactured using a CMOS
process that allows designing a dedicated circuit
able to provide a digital signal externally in PDM
format.
The MP34DB01 has an acoustic overload point of
120 dBSPL with a best on the market 62.6 dB
signal-to-noise ratio and -26 dBFS sensitivity.
The MP34DB01 is available in a bottom-port,
SMD-compliant, EMI-shielded package and is
guaranteed to operate over an extended
temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C.

Sensing element
Sensing element
The sensing element shall mean the acoustic sensor consisting of a conductive movable
plate and a fixed plate placed in a tiny silicon chip. This sensor transduces the sound
pressure into the changes of coupled capacity between those two plates.
Omron Corporation supplies this element for STMicroelectronics.
