but most of the MEMS mics have similar pinouts
i’m about to read thru it again.
there should be a reference design for it
thank u!! first time messing with anything somewhat in depth so im a bit lost lol
yep the datasheet has the reference design in it
Vdd, clk, gnd, Data out(PDM), one extra pin would be the select Mic(seems to cather to multiple microphone for different freq ranges)-> but a simple gpio could handle this, so no biggie
the pinout is also same other MEMS microphone
im looking at this
oh wait i can solder directly to these pins? i dont even need a carrier board?
yep
though i would suggest not to directly solder it with wires
i just dont want to wait for a carrier board tbh
i have a few i dont mind bricking one
what would you recommend?
as long as you have the requied bypass capacitor and and some load(resistor), you should be fine
would be a good experience also
you can understand why people use PCB for these wonderful sensors
im fairly new to circuitry so i think something like this would be a rlly good first device to design a pcb for honestly
yep!
there is no possible way im going to be able to solder this now that i think abt it
my soldering iron is too fat
i also started with something like this, though not directly with flat style package
tysm for the help lol
i was quite confused
understandable
then, i would’nt to go forward with it.
these things would normally require a reflow oven
oh thats not fun
that’s like 600 dollars
yea,
i would’nt suggest those for hobbyist who wont use regularly
