Infineon Technologies XENSIV™ MEMS Microphones

Infineon Technologies XENSIV™ MEMS Microphones can capture audio signals with unprecedented detail and clarity. Innovative audio features are introduced to the consumer electronics market as technology evolves. From Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to transparent hearing, AI-assisted voice control, and audio-zoom, these advancements are made possible through cutting-edge audio processing algorithms, microelectronics, and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors.

Infineon's XENSIV MEMS microphones feature ultra-low self-noise (high SNR) and extremely low distortions (THD) even at high sound pressure levels (SPL). The microphones also feature a tight part-to-part phase and sensitivity matching, a flat frequency response with a low LFRO (low-frequency roll-off), and an ultra-low group delay. These advanced features, combined with selectable power modes and small package size, make the MEMS microphones a perfect match for consumer electronics with excellent audio-capturing functionalities and selected industrial applications like predictive maintenance and security.

Most devices are based on the propitiatory Sealed Dual Membrane (SDM) technology, which allows the highest performance of the MEMS microphones on the market and IP57 robustness at the component level against dust and water.
