EM4015LW-38C10NF

Microphones Overview

The EM4015LW-38C10NF is an omnidirectional analog electret condenser microphone manufactured by Soberton Inc. It features a compact circular design with a diameter of 4.00 mm and a height of 1.60 mm. The device operates within a frequency range of 50 Hz to 10.0 kHz and requires a supply voltage between 1 V and 10 V. Sensitivity is rated at -38 dB ±3dB @ 94dB SPL, with a supply current of 500 mA. It offers IP67 protection for dust tightness and waterproofing, utilizing wire leads for termination.

Microphones Feature Summary

• IP67 rated construction providing dust tight and waterproof capabilities for harsh environments
• Omnidirectional acoustic response suitable for general sound capture applications
• Integrated wire lead termination for direct circuit integration without additional connectors

Microphones Applications

• IoT handheld devices requiring environmental resistance
• Surveillance equipment needing durable audio input
• Noise sensing devices operating in exposed conditions

Microphones Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against official Soberton documentation to ensure correct sensitivity and packaging specifications. Confirm that the required rubber cover is included or sourced separately, as it is necessary to maintain the IP67 waterproof integrity during installation. Check for active status and availability through authorized distributors.

Microphones Selection Notes

Select this component when an omnidirectional electret microphone with high ingress protection is required. Ensure the application supports the 1 V to 10 V operating voltage range and accommodates the 500 mA supply current. Consider the 4 mm diameter constraint for space-limited designs. Verify compatibility with analog signal processing circuits given the -38 dB sensitivity output.

Microphones Part Context

This part belongs to the EM series of microphones from Soberton Inc., designed for robust performance. It shares the IP67 rating characteristic with related models like the EM6027LW-42C, though dimensions and sensitivity differ. The EM series focuses on providing reliable audio capture in demanding industrial and consumer applications where standard microphones might fail due to moisture or dust exposure.

Microphones Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly confirmed in public documentation. Evaluate other IP67-rated omnidirectional electret microphones from Soberton or competitors, ensuring matching voltage ranges (1-10V), sensitivity (-38dB), and physical dimensions (4mm diameter). Verify pinout and termination style compatibility before substitution.
