SKM1600

Overview

The SKM1600 is an analog MEMS microphone module from Soundskrit, Inc. It integrates a directional dipole microphone with a traditional omnidirectional microphone into a single compact unit. The module features an integrated acoustic mesh providing IP57 ingress protection and includes a pre-applied adhesive layer for simplified assembly. Designed for consumer electronics, it leverages industry-low noise directional technology to enable advanced audio processing and spatial audio applications.

Feature Summary

• Combines directional dipole and omnidirectional microphone technologies in one module
• Includes integrated acoustic mesh for IP57 ingress protection
• Features pre-applied adhesive layer for easy attachment

Applications

• Consumer electronics audio capture
• Spatial audio systems
• Voice recognition devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Soundskrit documentation to ensure correct configuration. Confirm interface type and package dimensions match design requirements. Check for updated datasheets regarding acoustic performance metrics and environmental ratings before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this module when simultaneous directional and omnidirectional audio capture is required in a compact form factor. Consider its analog output nature for integration with existing signal chains. Evaluate the IP57 rating against environmental exposure needs and verify compatibility with target device mounting constraints.

Part Context

Part of the SKM16X0 series, which represents Soundskrit's first microphone modules incorporating both directional and omnidirectional elements. This series aims to simplify integration of advanced MEMS directional microphones into standard consumer electronic designs by combining multiple sensing capabilities into a single component.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available. The SKM2600 is a related module in the same series but may have different specifications. Verify functional equivalence carefully if considering alternatives.
