Overview
The Knowles WP-23898-C36 is a subminiature electret condenser microphone designed for high-performance audio capture in space-constrained environments. It features an omnidirectional polar pattern and operates at a supply voltage of 1.3 VDC with a current rating of 50 uA. The device provides a sensitivity of -54 dBA and has an impedance of 3.5 kOhms. Its physical dimensions are 5.56 mm in length, 3.98 mm in width, and 2.21 mm in depth. The component utilizes screw termination style and is rated for operation at a frequency of 10 kHz.
Feature Summary
- Omnidirectional acoustic response for uniform sound pickup
- Subminiature form factor suitable for compact assemblies
- Low power consumption operation
Applications
- Space-constrained audio capture devices
- Rugged environment recording equipment
- Compact consumer electronics
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm mechanical tolerances and electrical characteristics match design requirements. Ensure the screw termination style aligns with the target PCB or housing interface. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required by regulatory standards. Validate operating voltage and current limits against system power constraints before integration.
Selection Notes
Select this component when miniaturization is critical alongside reliable omnidirectional performance. The low operating voltage and current make it suitable for battery-powered applications. Consider the screw termination method during mechanical design to ensure proper mounting stability. Evaluate the -54 dBA sensitivity against ambient noise levels in the intended application environment.
Part Context
This model belongs to the Knowles subminiature electret microphone series, which focuses on delivering high-quality audio in minimal footprints. These components are engineered for durability and consistent performance in demanding conditions. The series supports various compact electronic designs requiring precise sound capture without compromising size constraints.
Replacement Considerations
Cross-reference with other Knowles subminiature microphones such as the TM-26898-C36 for similar form factors. Verify pinout compatibility and sensitivity specifications when substituting. Ensure mechanical mounting interfaces match to avoid redesigning the host assembly.
