INMP522ACEZ-R0

The INMP522 is an omnidirectional, bottom-ported, digital output MEMS microphone with high performance, ultra-low noise, and low power. The INMP522 has a sensitivity tolerance of ±1 dB from part to part, making it ideal for microphone array and beamforming applications.

The INMP522 consists of a MEMS microphone element and an impedance converter amplifier followed by a fourth-order S-? modulator. The digital interface enables the pulse density modulated (PDM) output of two microphones to be time multiplexed on a single data line using a single clock. The INMP522 is function- and pin-compatible with the INMP521 and INMP421 microphones, providing an easy upgrade path.

The INMP522 has a very high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 65 dBA and sensitivity of -26 dBFS, making it an excellent choice for near- and far-field applications. The INMP522 has an extended wideband frequency response, resulting in natural sound with high intelligibility. Low current consumption and a sleep mode with less than 2 µA current consumption enables long battery life for portable applications.

The INMP522 is available in a thin 4 × 3 × 1 mm surface mount package. It is reflow solder compatible with no sensitivity degradation.
