Design Recommendation
General
When both speaker and microphone are exposed to the external environment, it is recommended to
add ESD protection as close as possible to the speaker or microphone, connected between the audio
lines and a good ground.
add ESD protection as close as possible to the speaker or microphone, connected between the audio
lines and a good ground.
When using the single-ended connection of MICP, ensure to have a good ground plane, good filtering
as well as shielding, in order to avoid any disturbance on the audio path.
