PCB Piezotronics Announces New Side Vented Condenser Microphone Model

March 28, 2013, Depew, NY – PCB Piezotronics, Inc., a global leader in acoustic, vibration, pressure, force, and torque sensors with over 30 years of microphone manufacturing experience is pleased to announce the release of new Model 377A14 Side Vented 1/4″ Condenser Microphone. The 377A14 microphone is designed for use in very high frequency (100 kHz) and high amplitude (174 decibels) applications.

The Model 377A14 features a side vented design providing a greater degree of accuracy when the microphone is flush mounted in a wall or tube where there are significant pressure differentials between the inside and outside of the tube or wall.  Typical applications include testing of panels, airplane wing testing, HVAC, sound absorption in impedance tube tests, or general high amplitude or high frequency sound or noise measurements in cavities or small enclosures.

Model 378A14 is a Pressure Field microphone and preamplifier combination which combines the 377A14 microphone with a matching 426A05 preamplifier to help minimize leakage of external atmospheric pressure. This is available with TEDS (Transducer Electronic Data Sheets) programming for traceability of model, serial number, sensor location, sensitivity, and additional calibration information. These models are IEC 61094 compliant and are based on ICP® sensor technology. 

For additional information on PCB Acoustic products and our traditional externally polarized or the modern prepolarized condenser microphones please feel free to contact Mark Valentino, Product Manager, at 800-828-8840 or via email at mvalentino@pcb.com

How MediaTek Optimizes SI Design with Cadence Optimality Explorer and Clarity 3D Solver

Sponsored by Cadence Design Systems

In the era of 5G/6G communication, signal integrity (SI) design considerations are important in high-speed interface design. MediaTek’s design process usually relies on human intuition, but with Cadence’s Optimality Intelligent System Explorer and Clarity 3D Solver, they’ve increased design productivity by 75X. The Optimality Explorer’s AI technology not only improves productivity, but also provides helpful insights and answers.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.
