"MEMS: High-def digital mics to debut"

Akustica Inc. will announce a CMOS MEMS microphone family for high-definition applications including voice-over-Internet protocol (VoIP) at Computex next month (June 5-9) in Taipei, Taiwan. The new family of CMOS microphones uses a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) diaphragm that conforms to the Telecommunications Industries Association's TIA-920 specification for wideband digital transmission telephony. Separately, Akustica has landed two more design wins for its existing AKU2004 digital microphone arrays at Gateway Inc. The personal computer maker's new Thin & Light Convertible Notebooks, models C-120X and E-155C, use Akustica's CMOS MEMS digital microphones.
