STEVAL-MKI116V1
MEMS microphone demonstration board based on the
MP34DB01 and STM32
Data brief
Features
■ Powered and connected to PC through USB
■ Sound card automatically recognized by the
PC as an audio device
■ The onboard microphones are digital MEMS
devices
■ MEMS microphones provide a high frequency
data stream (1 to 3.25 MHz) of 1-bit digital
samples (PDM technique)
■ Audio collected from the microphones is sent to
the PC through the USB
■ LED status indicator
■ RoHS compliant
Description
The purpose of the STEVAL-MKI116V1
demonstration board is to provide an example of
the decoding and streaming of digital MEMS
microphone outputs.
The STEVAL-MKI116V1 demonstration board
hosts the MP34DB01 (bottom-port digital
microphone), working as a sensor, and the
STM32F107RC microcontroller, working as an
audio decoder.
These microphones are analog-to-digital
transducers. They are able to sense sound
pressure and convert this signal into a digital
signal using the PDM technique.
The STM32 microcontroller decodes the PDM
signal coming from the microphones and streams
the audio via the USB.
The STEVAL-MKI116V1 demonstration board is a
sound card automatically recognized by the PC
as an audio device. Connection is made through a
USB cable which also supplies the board and
then streams the collected audio.
