Microphones Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision status when ordering, as Knowles has issued product change notifications regarding molding suppliers for this part family. Confirm that the received unit matches the exact part number FB-FO-25383-000 to ensure compatibility with existing tooling and acoustic specifications. Check for any associated process change documentation from the manufacturer prior to final procurement approval.

Microphones Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed-diameter boom of 8.64 mm is required for the acoustic housing. Ensure the host design accommodates the wire lead configuration provided by this assembly. Consider the standard manufacturing lead time of approximately 11 weeks during production planning. Validate that the mechanical dimensions align with the intended enclosure constraints before finalizing the bill of materials.

Microphones Part Context

This part belongs to the Knowles FB series of microphone components. It functions as a structural boom rather than an active transducer. The part number indicates a specific configuration within the broader microphone accessory portfolio. It is distinct from standalone MEMS or electret capsules, serving instead as the physical carrier and positioning mechanism for the microphone element.

Microphones Replacement Considerations

Public documentation references FB-FO-33339-000 and FB-BO-61263-L20 as related parts subject to similar supplier changes. Verify cross-compatibility carefully, as molding supplier transitions may alter physical tolerances. No direct substitute part numbers are explicitly confirmed as functionally identical in available public records.
