Problems solved by technology

Locating sensors in a cell phone is a difficult task because of the spatial constraints on the possible locations of the sensors, and within a certain confined space, the location of a sensor such as a microphone must be sufficiently isolated from signal interference generated by other devices in the phone

Abstract

The invention provides a communication device comprising: a cover; a printed circuit board ; a microphone on the printed circuit board; an antenna located at least in part within the cover; and a RF shield can shaped to fit over the microphone about the PCB. In the device , the cover is shaped to enclose the PCB and the RF shield can. The cover provides pressure on the RF shield can to press inward on the microphone to fixedly attach it to the PCB.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a microphone coupler for a voice communication device, and more particularly to a coupler that provides an air path from outside the device to a microphone located within the device. Background technique [0002] In a voice communication device, a microphone and speaker must be provided to allow a user to send and receive audio signals with another compatible device used by another person. [0003] In a typical telephone, an earpiece is provided, which is curved and has two sensors, such as a microphone and a speaker, positioned in proper spatial relationship. At the same time, portable communication devices, such as cellular telephones, have smaller and smaller form factors. Locating sensors in a cell phone is a difficult task because of the spatial constraints on the possible locations of the sensors, and within a certain confined space, the location of a sensor such as a microphone must be sufficiently isolated from...
