New Automotive-Qualified XENSIV MEMS Microphone With Analog Interface for Audio and Active Noise Cancelation Systems

For ANC systems with an analog interface, Infineon Technologies expanded its automotive microphone portfolio with the XENSIV MEMS microphone IM68A130A with a flat frequency response to frequencies below 10Hz. It builds on the successful launch of Infineon’s first automotive-qualified digital MEMS microphone, the IM67D130A, and combines the company’s automotive expertise with its technical know-how in high-end MEMS microphones.

Infineon Technologies AG announced the launch of the XENSIV IM67D130A MEMS microphone. The high acoustic overload point (AOP) of 130 dB SPL allows the IM67130A to capture distortion-free audio signals in loud environments, whether in- or outside a vehicle. The microphone also has an increased operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C to enable various use cases in harsh automotive environments, enabling advanced driver assistance systems and predictive maintenance applications.

Knowles Corporation announced the availability of two new SiSonic MEMS microphones for automotive applications: SPH1878 and SPH9855. The new best-in-class analog and digital microphones by Knowles are engineered to a higher standard of quality and supply assurance to support the increasing demands of the automotive market for hands free calling, advanced voice assistance and in-cabin noise cancellation for passenger comfort.
