ICS-43432
Low-Noise Microphone with I2S Digital Output
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ICS-43432* is a digital I2S output bottom port microphone.
The complete ICS-43432 solution consists of a MEMS sensor,
signal conditioning, an analog-to-digital converter, decimation
and anti-aliasing filters, power management, and an industry
standard 24-bit I²S interface. The I²S interface allows the
ICS-43432 to connect directly to digital processors, such as DSPs
and microcontrollers, without the need for an audio codec in the
system.
The ICS-43432 has a high SNR of 65 dBA and a wideband
frequency response. The sensitivity tolerance of the ICS-43432
is ±1 dB, which enables high-performance microphone arrays
without the need for system calibration.
The ICS-43432 is available in a small 4 mm × 3 mm × 1 mm
surface-mount package.
*Protected by U.S. Patents 7,449,356; 7,825,484; 7,885,423; and 7,961,897.
Other patents are pending.

ICS-43432
THEORY OF OPERATION
POWER MANAGEMENT
The ICS-43432 has two power states: normal operation, and standby mode.
Startup and Normal Operation
The ICS-43432 will begin to output non-zero data 4462 SCK clock cycles (1.5 ms with fSCK = 3.072 MHz) after initial power-up. The part
is in normal operation mode when SCK and WS are active.
Table 7 shows the startup time for different sampling rates.

S
(WS frequency)
Startup time
48 kHz
1.5 ms
24 kHz
3.0 ms
16 kHz
4.5 ms
8 kHz
9.0 ms
Standby Mode
The microphone enters standby mode when the frequency of SCK falls below about 1 kHz. It is recommended to enter standby
mode by stopping both the SCK and WS clock signals and pulling those signals to ground to avoid drawing current through the WS
pin’s internal pull-down resistor. The timing for exiting standby mode is the same as normal startup.
It is not recommended to supply active clocks (WS and SCK) to the ICS-43432 while there is no power supplied to VDD, doing this
continuously turns on ESD protection diodes, which may affect long-term reliability of the microphone.
Soft Unmute
The ICS-43432 has a soft unmute feature to prevent pops on power-up. From the time that the ICS-43432 starts to output data, the
volume will ramp up to the full-scale output level over 256 WS clock cycles. With a 48 kHz sampling rate, this unmute sequence will
take about 5.3 ms.
SYNCHRONIZING MICROPHONES
Stereo ICS-43432 microphones are synchronized by the WS signal, so audio captured from two microphones sharing the same clock
will be in sync. If the mics are enabled separately, this synchronization may take up to 0.35 ms after the enable signal is asserted
while internal data paths are flushed.
I²S DATA INTERFACE
The slave serial data port’s format is I²S, 24-bit, twos complement. There must be 64 SCK cycles in each WS stereo frame. The L/R
control pin determines whether the ICS-43432 outputs data in the left or right channel. When set to the left channel, the data will be
output following WS’s falling edge and when set to output on the right channel, data will be output following WS’s rising edge.
For a stereo application, the SD pins of the left and right ICS-43432 microphones should be tied together as shown in Figure 10. The
format of a stereo I²S data stream is shown in Figure 11. Figure 12 and Figure 13 show the formats of a mono microphone data
stream for left and right microphones, respectively.
Data Output Mode
The output data pin (SD) is tri-stated when it is not actively driving I²S output data. SD immediately tristates after the LSB
is output so that another microphone can drive the common data line.
Page 10 of 20
Document Number: DS-000038
Revision: 1.0
ICS-43432
The SD trace should have a pulldown resistor to discharge the line during the time that all microphones on the bus have tri-stated
their outputs. A 100 kΩ resistor is sufficient for this, as shown in Figure 10. If the SD line needs to be discharged faster than a 100 kΩ
resistor can, a smaller resistor, such as 10 kΩ, can be used.
Data Word Length
The output data word length is 24 bits per channel.
Data Word Format
The default data format is I²S (twos complement), MSB-first. In this format, the MSB of each word is delayed by one SCK cycle from
the start of each half-frame.

ICS-43432
Data Output Format
The output data word length is 24 bits/channel. The data word format is 2’s complement, MSB first.
The output data pin (SD) is tri-stated when it is not actively driving output data. SD will immediately tri-state after the LSB is output
so that another microphone can drive the common data line.
DIGITAL MICROPHONE SENSITIVITY
The sensitivity of a digital output microphone is specified in units of dB FS (decibels relative to a full-scale digital output). A 0 dB FS
sine wave is defined as a signal whose peak just touches the full-scale code of the digital word (see Figure 5). This measurement
convention means that signals with a different crest factor may have an RMS level higher than 0 dB FS. For example, a full-scale
square wave has an RMS level of 3 dB FS.
Figure 11. 1 kHz, 0 dB FS Sine Wave
The definition of a 0 dB FS signal must be understood when measuring the sensitivity of the ICS-43432. An acoustic input signal of a
1 kHz sine wave at 94 dB SPL applied to the ICS-43432 results in an output signal with a −26 dB FS level. This means that the output
digital word peaks at −26 dB below the digital full-scale level. A common misunderstanding is that the output has an RMS level of
−29 dB FS; however, this is not the case because of the definition of a 0 dB FS sine wave.
There is no commonly accepted unit of measurement to express the instantaneous level of a digital signal output from the
microphone, as opposed to the RMS level of the signal. Some measurement systems express the instantaneous level of an individual
sample in units of D, where 1.0 D is digital full scale (see Figure 11). In this case, a −26 dB FS sine wave has peaks at 0.05 D.
For more information about digital microphone sensitivity, see the AN-1112 Application Note, Microphone Specifications Explained.
DIGITAL FILTER CHARACTERISTICS
The ICS-43432 has an internal digital bandpass filter. A high-pass filter eliminates unwanted low frequency signals. A low-pass
decimation filter scales the pass band with the sampling frequency and performs required out-of-band noise reduction.
High-Pass Filter
The ICS-43432 incorporates a high-pass filter to remove unwanted dc and very low frequency components. With fS = 48 kHz, this high
pass filter has a −3 dB corner frequency of 3.7 Hz. The cutoff frequency scales with changes in sampling rate.
This digital filter response is in addition to the acoustic high-pass response of the ICS-43432 that has a −3 dB corner of 50 Hz.

ICS-43432
Low-Pass Decimation Filter
The analog-to-digital converter in the ICS-43432 is a single-bit, high order, sigma-delta (Σ-Δ) running at a high oversampling ratio.
The noise shaping of the converter pushes the majority of the noise well above the audio band and gives the microphone a wide
dynamic range. However, it does require a good quality low-pass decimation filter to eliminate the high frequency noise.
The pass band of the filter extends to 0.417 × fS and, in that band, has only 0.04 dB of ripple. The high frequency cutoff of −3 dB
occurs at 0.5 × fS. A 48 kHz sampling rate results in a pass band of 20.3 kHz and a half amplitude corner at 24 kHz; the stop-band
attenuation of the filter is 58 dB. Note that these filter specifications scale with sampling frequency.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
SD OUTPUT DRIVE STRENGTH
The SD data output pin must drive a load that includes the PCB trace and the tri-stated inputs of the other ICS-43432 SD pins
connected to that same trace. The tri-stated load capacitance of the ICS-43432 SD pin is about 6 pF. The ICS-43432 has been
designed to drive a load of 150 pF.
POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING
For best performance and to avoid potential parasitic artifacts, placing a 0.1 µF ceramic type X7R or better capacitor between
Pin 3 (VDD) and ground is strongly recommended. The capacitor should be placed as close to Pin 3 as possible.
The connections to each side of the capacitor should be as short as possible, and the trace should stay on a single layer with no vias.
For maximum effectiveness, locate the capacitor equidistant from the power and ground pins or, when equidistant placement is not
possible, slightly closer to the power pin. Thermal connections to the ground planes should be made on the far side of the capacitor,
as shown in Figure 14.

PCB DESIGN AND LAND PATTERN LAYOUT
The recommended PCB land pattern for the ICS-43432 should be laid out to a 1:1 ratio to the solder pads on the microphone
package, as shown in Figure 15. Take care to avoid applying solder paste to the sound hole in the PCB. A suggested solder paste
stencil pattern layout is shown in Figure 16. The diameter of the sound hole in the PCB should be larger than the diameter of the
sound port of the microphone. A minimum diameter of 0.5 mm is recommended.

PCB MATERIAL AND THICKNESS
The performance of the ICS-43432 is not affected by PCB thickness. The ICS-43432 can be mounted on either a rigid or flexible PCB.
A flexible PCB with the microphone can be attached directly to the device housing with an adhesive layer. This mounting method
offers a reliable seal around the sound port while providing the shortest acoustic path for good sound quality.

HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
PICK AND PLACE EQUIPMENT
The MEMS microphone can be handled using standard pick-and-place and chip shooting equipment. Take care to avoid damage to the
MEMS microphone structure as follows:
• Use a standard pickup tool to handle the microphone. Because the microphone hole is on the bottom of the package, the
pickup tool can make contact with any part of the lid surface.
• Do not pick up the microphone with a vacuum tool that makes contact with the bottom side of the microphone.
Do not pull air out of or blow air into the microphone port.
• Do not use excessive force to place the microphone on the PCB.
REFLOW SOLDER
For best results, the soldering profile must be in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer of the solder paste used to
attach the MEMS microphone to the PCB. It is recommended that the solder reflow profile not exceed the limit conditions specified
in Figure 2 and Table 5.
BOARD WASH
When washing the PCB, ensure that water does not make contact with the microphone port. Do not use blow-off procedures or
ultrasonic cleaning.
