Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of microphones, in particular to an anti-power-frequency microphone. BACKGROUND

[0002] The working principle of an electret condenser microphone is based on the charging and discharging principle of a capacitor. It uses an electret film as a vibrating diaphragm. When a sound wave acts on the vibrating diaphragm, it will cause the distance between the vibrating diaphragm and the metal plate to change, thereby changing the capacity of the capacitor. Since the amount of charge on the electret remains unchanged, the change in the capacity of the capacitor will cause a change in the voltage across the capacitor, thereby realizing sound-to-electricity conversion.

[0003] The working of an electret condenser microphone can be affected by power frequency interference. Power frequency interference mainly comes from 50Hz or 60Hz alternating current signals in the power system. This interference signal can enter the microphone through electromagnetic induction or conduction, etc., causing the sound pickup quality to decrease. Power frequency interference appears as a continuous, periodic noise in the microphone output signal, seriously affecting the clarity and purity of the sound pickup.

[0004] Therefore, measures against power frequency interference need to be considered in the design of an electret condenser microphone. Since the size of an electret microphone is small, the circuit space is limited, and it is difficult to design against power frequency interference for an electret microphone.
