Electret condenser microphones for acoustic measurement

概要

論文の詳細を見る
In recent years, condenser microphones which are polarized with an electret film (herein referred to as "electret microphones") are increasingly used instead of condenser microphones which need an external voltage source for polarizing (herein referred to as "condenser microphones") as acoustic measurement microphones, especially for sound level meters. This is because electret characteristics have been remarkably improved, due to great progress in electret source materials and manufacturing technology. In this paper, first we will present an outline of electret materials and some evaluation methods of electret characteristics. Then we will state the respective advantages of condenser microphones and electret microphones. And finally we will introduce two samples of electret microphones which were designed for sound level meters by Rion Co. , Ltd.
