PMOF-6050PA-36KDQ

Microphones Overview

The PMOF-6050PA-36KDQ is an analog electret condenser microphone manufactured by Mallory Sonalert Products Inc. It features an omnidirectional polar pattern and operates within a frequency range of 100 Hz to 10 kHz. The device requires a supply voltage between 1 V and 10 V DC, with a maximum current consumption of 0.5 mA. Sensitivity is rated at -36 ± 3 dB relative to 1 V/Pa at 1 kHz, measured with a load resistance of 2.2 kΩ. The impedance is a maximum of 2.2 kΩ at 1 kHz. The component utilizes SMD/SMT termination and has physical dimensions of 6 mm in diameter and 5 mm in depth.

• Omnidirectional acoustic response for uniform sound capture from all directions
• Electret condenser technology providing stable analog audio signal output
• Surface-mount design suitable for automated PCB assembly processes

Microphones Applications

• Embedded systems requiring compact audio input capabilities
• Industrial automation equipment needing reliable voice or tone detection
• Consumer electronics utilizing surface-mount microphone solutions

Microphones Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and package type against official Mallory Sonalert documentation before ordering. Confirm that the required sensitivity and impedance specifications align with your circuit design requirements. Ensure compatibility with your manufacturing process for surface-mount components. Check for any recent product lifecycle changes or obsolescence notices directly from the manufacturer.

Microphones Selection Notes

Select this component when an omnidirectional analog microphone is needed for space-constrained applications. The 6mm diameter and 5mm height allow for integration into tight enclosures. Ensure the host circuit can provide the necessary bias voltage within the 1V to 10V range. Consider the -36dB sensitivity level for appropriate pre-amplifier gain settings in your audio path design.

Microphones Part Context

This part belongs to the PMO series of microphones from Mallory Sonalert. The series includes various models with different sensitivities and physical profiles, such as the PMOF-6027NSN-36KDQ which shares similar electrical characteristics but differs in height. These components are designed for general-purpose audio sensing in industrial and commercial electronic devices.

Microphones Replacement Considerations

The PMOF-6050S-44UQ is a related model in the same series but offers higher sensitivity (-44 dB) and a greater height (5 mm vs 2.7 mm for other variants). Verify if the increased sensitivity meets your noise floor requirements. Ensure mechanical fitment is compatible with your panel or board layout.
