Analog Output MEMS Microphone Flex Evaluation Board User Guide
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This user guide applies to the following MEMS microphone
evaluation boards:
•
EVAL-INMP401Z-FLEX
•
EVAL-INMP411Z-FLEX
•
EV_ICS-40300-FX
This is a simple evaluation board that allows quick evaluation
of the performance of analog MEMS microphones in a
package with a 4.72 mm × 3.76 mm footprint size. The small
size and low profile of the flexible PCB enables direct
placement of the microphone into a prototype or an existing
design for an in situ evaluation. The evaluation board consists
of a bottom port microphone soldered to a flexible PCB with
color-coded wires attached. The only other component on
the board is a 0.1
μF supply bypass capacitor.
Table 1
describes the functions of the three connection wires. Table 2
describes the functional differences between the different
microphones that are used with this flex circuit.
