WM7216E Product Datasheet

WM7216E
Low Power Top Port Digital Silicon Microphone
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The WM7216 is a low-profile digital silicon microphone,
optimised for use with low-power ‘Always-on’ voice control
applications, such as Cirrus Logic® SoundClear™
software.

High SNR (63dB)

Low variation in sensitivity (±1dB tolerance)

Low current consumption
The WM7216 supports two operational modes, selected
according to the applied clock frequency. ‘Voice’ mode
provides low current consumption, and sufficient SNR
performance for speech recognition algorithms. ‘Hi-Fi
Record’ mode offers wide dynamic range, and classleading THD performance. Operation in the ultrasonic
band is also supported at high clock frequencies.
The WM7216 incorporates Cirrus Logic proprietary
CMOS/MEMS membrane technology, offering high
reliability and high performance in a miniature, low-profile
package. The WM7216 is designed to withstand the high
temperatures associated with automated flow solder
assembly processes. (Note that conventional microphones
can be damaged by this process.)
The WM7216 incorporates a high-performance ADC,
which outputs a single-bit data stream using Pulse Density
Modulation (PDM) encoding. The WM7216 supports
selectable left/right channel assignment for a two-channel
digital microphone interface, enabling efficient connection
of multiple microphones in stereo/array configurations.
The WM7216 offers tight tolerance on the microphone
sensitivity, giving reduced variation between parts. This
removes the need for in-line production calibration of partto-part microphone variations.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Absolute Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Permanent damage to the device may be caused by continuously operating at
or beyond these limits. Device functional operating limits and guaranteed performance specifications are given under Electrical
Characteristics at the test conditions specified.
ESD Sensitive Device. This device is manufactured on a CMOS process. It is therefore generically susceptible
to damage from excessive static voltages. Proper ESD precautions must be taken during handling and storage
of this device.
Cirrus Logic tests its package types according to IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 for Moisture Sensitivity to determine acceptable storage
conditions prior to surface mount assembly. These levels are:
MSL1 = unlimited floor life at <30°C / 85% Relative Humidity. Not normally stored in moisture barrier bag.
MSL2 = out of bag storage for 1 year at <30°C / 60% Relative Humidity. Supplied in moisture barrier bag.
MSL2A = out of bag storage for 4 weeks at <30°C / 60% Relative Humidity. Supplied in moisture barrier bag.
MSL3 = out of bag storage for 168 hours at <30°C / 60% Relative Humidity. Supplied in moisture barrier bag.
The Moisture Sensitivity Level for each package type is specified in Ordering Information.

IMPORTANT ASSEMBLY GUIDELINES
Do not put a vacuum over the port hole of the microphone. Placing a vacuum over the port hole can damage the device.
Do not board wash the microphone after a re-flow process. Board washing and the associated cleaning agents can damage the
device. Do not expose to ultrasonic cleaning methods.
Do not use vapour phase re-flow process. The vapour can damage the device.
Please refer to application note WAN0273 (MEMS MIC Assembly and Handling Guidelines) for further assembly and handling
guidelines.

Sensitivity (dBFS) – Sensitivity is a measure of the microphone output response to the acoustic pressure of a 1kHz 94dB SPL
(1Pa RMS) sine wave. This is referenced to the output Full Scale Range (FSR) of the microphone.
Full Scale Range (FSR) – Sensitivity, Electrical Noise Floor and Power Supply Rejection are measured with reference to the
output Full Scale Range (FSR) of the microphone. FSR is defined as the amplitude of a 1kHz sine wave output whose positive
peak value reaches 100% density of logic 1s and whose negative peak value reaches 0% density of logic 1s. This is the largest
1kHz sine wave that will fit in the digital output range without clipping. Note that, because the definition of FSR is based on a
sine wave, it is possible to support a square wave test signal output whose level is +3dBFS.
Total Harmonic Distortion (%) – THD is the ratio of the RMS sum of the harmonic distortion products in the specified bandwidth
(see note below) relative to the RMS amplitude of the fundamental (ie. test frequency) output.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio (dB) – SNR is a measure of the difference in level between the output response of a 1kHz 94dB SPL
sine wave and the idle noise output.
Dynamic Range (dB) – DR is the ratio of the 1% THD microphone output level (in response to a sine wave input) and the idle
noise output level.
All performance measurements are carried out within a 20Hz to 20kHz bandwidth and, where noted, an A-weighted filter.
Failure to use these filters will result in higher THD and lower SNR values than are found in the Acoustic and Electrical
Characteristics. The brick wall filter removes out of band noise.
Hi-Fi Record mode and Voice mode are selected according to CLK frequency, as described above.
Sleep Mode is enabled when the CLK input is stopped; this is a power-saving mode. Normal operation resumes automatically
when the CLK input frequency is within the specified operational limits. Note that the VDD supply is still required in Sleep
mode.

Notes:
1.
The DAT output is high-impedance when not outputting data; this enables the outputs of two microphones to be connected
together with the data from one microphone interleaved with the data from the other. (The microphones must be configured to
transmit on opposite channels in this case.)
2.
In a typical configuration, the Left channel is transmitted following the rising CLK edge (LRSEL = 1). In this case, the Left
channel should be sampled by the receiving device on the falling CLK edge.
3.
Similarly, the Right channel is typically transmitted following the falling CLK edge (LRSEL = 0). In this case, the Right channel
should be sampled by the receiving device on the rising CLK edge.
4.
The WM7216 operating mode is selected according to the CLK frequency; see “Acoustic and Electrical Characteristics” for
further details.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
RECOMMENDED EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
It is recommended to connect a 0.1µF decoupling capacitor between the VDD and GND pins of the
WM7216. A ceramic 0.1µF capacitor with X7R dielectric or better is suitable. The capacitor should be
placed as close to the WM7216 as possible.
OPTIMISED SYSTEM RF DESIGN
For optimised RF design please refer to document WAN0278 (Recommended PCB Layout for
Microphone RF Immunity in Mobile Cell Phone Applications) for further information.
CONNECTION TO A CIRRUS LOGIC AUDIO CODEC
Cirrus Logic provides a range of audio CODECs incorporating a digital microphone input interface;
these support direct connection to digital microphones such as the WM7216.
Stereo connection of two WM7216 digital microphones is illustrated in Figure 2.
Further information on Cirrus Logic audio CODECs is provided in the respective product datasheet,
which is available from the Cirrus Logic website.
