It is a low impedance measurement microphone that can be operated from 12…52 V Phantom Power which is available on most professional micro- phone preamplifiers and professional computer interfaces. With its mechani- cally robust design it is well suited for harsh environment use such as open air sound reinforcement measure-...

@ 1kHz. The diagram on previous page shows how tempera- ture affects the frequency response behavior of an EMX-7150 microphone. The microphone capsule itself is the part being responsible for most of the temperature change. (see also: Tem- perature characteristics of electret con- denser microphones Acoust.

The matching tolerance is applicable within the microphone’s entire frequency range. For the EMX-7150 the matching toler- ance on frequency response is +/- 0.5dB and 1mV on microphone sensi- tivity. The matching process (1-4): The first stage of testing begins with the selection of microphone capsules.

APPLICATION NOTES FREEFIELD vs. DIFFUSEFIELD USE Only a small percentage of all acousti- cal measurements are performed in a well defined and/or well controlled environment of an e.g. acoustical labo- ratory – on the contrary most acousti- cal measurements are done under not really controlled conditions.

A microphone’s random (diffuse) inci- dence response can be approximated by measuring the 90º incidence response relative to a single sound source (as per B&K literature). The diffuse field response is not easy to measure, because it is not easy to gener- ate a truly diffuse sound field over a wide frequency range but there is a known procedure to estimate the diffuse fre-...

While it is an approximation only iSEM- con has measured the 90deg response of many EMX-7150 microphones and used the averaged data to evaluate a order polynomial. This is now used to derive the “diffuse field” response from the microphones free field re- sponse data.
In an unlikely event of equipment failure, please contact your local iSEMcon repre- sentative or the iSEMcon factory located Germany (sales@iSEMcon.com). Unauthorised dismantling of the mic- rophone will invalidate the warranty.
