LMV1090
Dual Input, Far Field Noise Suppression Microphone
Amplifier
General Description
Key Specifications
The LMV1090 is a fully analog dual differential input, differential output, microphone array amplifier designed to reduce
background acoustic noise, while delivering superb speech
clarity in voice communication applications.
The LMV1090 preserves near-field voice signals within 4cm
of the microphones while rejecting far-field acoustic noise
greater than 50cm from the microphones. Up to 20dB of farfield rejection is possible in a properly configured and using
±0.5dB matched microphones.
Part of the Powerwise™ family of energy efficient solutions,
the LMV1090 consumes only 600μA of supply current providing superior performance over DSP solutions consuming
greater than ten times the power.
The dual microphone inputs and the processed signal output
are differential to provide excellent noise immunity. The microphones are biased with an internal low-noise bias supply.

Test Methods
30083312
FIGURE 2. FFNSE, NFSLE, SNRIE Test Circuit
two microphones (see Figure 9). In this configuration the
speech signal at the microphone closest to the sound source
will have greater amplitude than the microphone further away.
Additionally the signal at microphone further away will experience a phase lag when compared with the closer microphone. To simulate this, phase delay as well as amplitude
shift was added to the NFSLE test. The schematic from Figure
3 is used with the following procedure to measure the NFSLE.
1. A 25mVP-P and 17.25mVP-P (0.69*25mVP-P) sine wave is
applied to Mic1 and Mic2 respectively. Once again, a
signal generator is used to delay the phase of Mic2 by
15.9° when compared with Mic1.
2. Measure the output level in dBV (X)
3. Mute the signal from Mic2
4. Measure the output level in dBV (Y)
5. NFSLE = Y - X dB
FAR FIELD NOISE SUPPRESSION (FFNSE)
For optimum noise suppression the far field noise should be
in a broadside array configuration from the two microphones
(see Figure 8). Which means the far field sound source is
equidistance from the two microphones. This configuration
allows the amplitude of the far field signal to be equal at the
two microphone inputs, however a slight phase difference
may still exist. To simulate a real world application a slight
phase delay was added to the FFNSE test. The block diagram
from Figure 3 is used with the following procedure to measure
the FFNSE.
1. A sine wave with equal frequency and amplitude
(25mVP-P) is applied to Mic1 and Mic2. Using a signal
generator, the phase of Mic 2 is delayed by 1.1° when
compared with Mic1.
2. Measure the output level in dBV (X)
3. Mute the signal from Mic2
4. Measure the output level in dBV (Y)
5. FFNSE = Y - X dB
SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO IMPROVEMENT ELECTRICAL
(SNRIE)
The SNRIE is the ratio of FFNSE to NFSLE and is defined as:

INTRODUCTION
The LMV1090 is a fully analog single chip solution to reduce
the far field noise picked up by microphones in a communi-
30083324
FIGURE 3. Simplified Block Diagram of the LMV1090
The output signal of the microphones is amplified by a preamplifier with adjustable gain between 6dB and 36dB. After
the signals are matched the analog noise cancelling suppresses the far field noise signal. The output of the analog
noise cancelling processor is amplified in the post amplifier
with adjustable gain between 6dB and 18dB. For optimum
noise and EMI immunity, the microphones have a differential
connection to the LMV1090 and the output of the LMV1090
is also differential. The adjustable gain functions can be controlled via I2C.
Shutdown Function
Power Supply Circuits
SHUTDOWN VIA HARDWARE PIN
The hardware shutdown function is operated via the EN pin.
In normal operation the EN pin must be at a 'high' level
(VDD). Whenever a 'low' level (GND) is applied to the EN pin
the part will go into shutdown mode disabling all internal circuits.
As part of the Powerwise™ family, the LMV1090 consumes
only 0.50mA of current. In many applications the part does
not need to be continuously operational. To further reduce the
power consumption in the inactive period, the LMV1090 provides two individual microphone power down functions. When
either one of the shutdown functions is activated the part will
go into shutdown mode consuming only a few μA of supply
current.
A low drop-out (LDO) voltage regulator in the LMV1090 allows
the device to be independent of supply voltage variations.
The Power On Reset (POR) circuitry in the LMV1090 requires
the supply voltage to rise from 0V to VDD in less than 100ms.
The Mic Bias output is provided as a low noise supply source
for the electret microphones. The noise voltage on the Mic
Bias microphone supply output pin depends on the noise voltage on the internal the reference node. The de-coupling
capacitor on the VREF pin determines the noise voltage on this
internal reference. This capacitor should be larger than 1nF;
having a larger capacitor value will result in a lower noise
voltage on the Mic Bias output.
Most of the logic levels for the digital control interface are relative to I2CVDD voltage. This eases interfacing to the micro
controller of the application containing the LMV1090. The
supply voltage on the I2CVDD pin must never exceed the voltage on the VDD pin.
Only the four pins that determine the default power up gain
have logic levels relative to VDD.
Gain Balance and Gain Budget
In systems where input signals have a high dynamic range,
critical noise levels or where the dynamic range of the output
voltage is also limited, careful gain balancing is essential for
the best performance. Too low of a gain setting in the preamplifier can result in higher noise levels while too high of a gain
setting in the preamplifier will result in clipping and saturation
in the noise cancelling processor and output stages.
The gain ranges and maximum signal levels for the different
functional blocks are shown in Figure 4. Two examples are
given as a guideline on how to select proper gain settings.

cation system. A simplified block diagram is provided in

Application Data
LMV1090
30083341
FIGURE 4. Maximum Signal Levels
3.5VP-P at the output of the LMV1090. This level is higher
then maximum level that is allowed at the input of the post
amp of the LMV1090. Therefore the preamp gain has to
be reduced, to 1.4VP-P minus 9dB = 0.5VP-P. This limits
the preamp gain to a maximum of 20dB.
5. The baseband chip limits the maximum output voltage to
1.5VP-P with the minimum of 6dB post amp gain, this
results in requiring a lower level at the input of the post
amp of 0.75VP-P. Now calculating this for a maximum
NCP gain of 9dB the output of the preamp must be
<266mVP-P.
6. Calculating the new gain for the preamp will result in
<1.4dB gain.
7. The nearest lower gain will be 14dB.
So using preamp gain = 14dB and postamp gain = 6dB is the
optimum for this application.
Example 1
An application using microphones with 50mVP-P maximum
output voltage, and a baseband chip after the LMV1090 with
1.5VP-P maximum input voltage.
For optimum noise performance, the gain of the input stage
should be set to the maximum.
1. 50mVP-P +36 dB = 3.1VP-P.
2. 3.1VP-P is higher than the maximum 1.4VP-P allowed for
the Noise Cancelling Processor (NCP). This means a
gain lower than 28.9dB should be selected.
3. Select the nearest lower gain from the gain settings
shown in Table 2, 28dB is selected. This will prevent the
NCP from being overloaded by the microphone. With this
setting, the resulting output level of the Pre Amplifier will
be 1.26VP-P.
4. The NCP can have a maximum processing gain of 9dB
(depending on the calibration result) which will result in

I2C Compatible Interface Power
Supply Pin (I2CVDD)
The LMV1090 I2C interface is powered up through the
I2CVDD pin. The LMV1090 I2C interface operates at a voltage
level set by the I2CVDD pin which can be set independent to
that of the main power supply pin VDD. This is ideal whenever
logic levels for the I2C Interface are dictated by a microcontroller or microprocessor that is operating at a lower supply
voltage than the main battery of a portable system.
I2C Bus Format
The I2C bus format is shown in Figure 7. The START signal,
the transition of SDA from HIGH to LOW while SCL is HIGH
is generated, alerting all devices on the bus that a device address is being written to the bus. The 7-bit device address is
written to the bus, most significant bit (MSB) first followed by
the R/W bit, R/W = 0 indicates the master is writing to the slave
device, R/W = 1 indicates the master wants to read data from
the slave device. Set R/W = 0; the LMV1090 is a WRITEONLY device and will not respond to the R/W = 1. The data
is latched in on the rising edge of the clock. Each address bit
must be stable while SCL is HIGH. After the last address bit
is transmitted, the mater device release SDA, during which
time, an acknowledge clock pulse is generated by the slave
device. If the LMV1090 receives the correct address, the device pulls the SDA line low, generating an acknowledge bit
(ACK)
Once the master device registers the ACK bit, the 8-bit register data word is sent. Each data bit should be stable while
SCL is HIGH. After the 8-bit register data word is sent, the
LMV1090 sends another ACK bit. Following the acknowledgement of the last register data word, the master issues a
STOP bit, allowing SDA to go high while SCL is high.

The LMV1090 is controlled through an I2C compatible serial
interface that consists of a serial data line (SDA) and a serial
clock (SCL). The clock line are uni-directional. *The LMV1090
and the master can communicate at clock rates up to 400kHz.
Figure 5 shows the I2C Interface timing diagram. Data on the
SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of SCL. The
LMV1090 is a transmit/receive slave-only device, reliant upon
the master to generate the SCL signal. Each transmission
sequence is framed by a START condition and a STOP condition (Figure 6). The data line is 8 bits long and is always
followed by an acknowledge pulse (Figure 7).

Example 2
An application using microphones with 10mVP-P maximum
output voltage, and a baseband chip after the LMV1090 with
3.3VP-P maximum input voltage.
For optimum noise performance we would like to have the
maximum gain at the input stage.
1. 10mVP-P + 36dB = 631mVP-P.
2. This is lower than the maximum 1.4VP-P so this is OK.
3. The NCP can have a maximum processing gain of 9dB
(depending on the calibration result) which will result in
3.5VP-P at the output of the LMV1090. This level is higher
then maximum level that is allowed at the input of the
Post Amp of the LMV1090. Therefore the Pre Amp gain
has to be reduced, to 1.4VP-P minus 9dB = 0.5VP-P. This
limits the Pre Amp gain to a maximum of 34dB.
4. With a Post Amp gain setting of 6dB the output of the
Post Amp will be 2.8VP-P which is OK for the baseband.
5. The nearest lower Post Amp gain will be 6dB.
So using preamp gain = 34dB and postamp gain = 6dB is
optimum for this application.

large, the far field noise reduction performance will be degraded. The optimum spacing between Mic 1 and Mic 2 is
1.5-2.5cm. This range provides a balance of minimal near
field speech loss and maximum far field noise reduction. The
microphones should be in line with the desired sound source
'near speech' and configured in an endfire array (see Figure
9) orientation from the sound source. If the 'near speech' (desired sound source) is equidistant to the source like a broadside array (see Figure 8) the result will be a great deal of near
field speech loss.
Microphone Placement
Because the LMV1090 is a microphone array Far Field Noise
Reduction solution, proper microphone placement is critical
for optimum performance. Two things need to be considered:
The spacing between the two microphones and the position
of the two microphones relative to near field source
If the spacing between the two microphones is too small near
field speech will be canceled along with the far field noise.
Conversely, if the spacing between the two microphones is

A-Weighted Filter
At the output of the LMV1090 there is a provision to create a
1st order low-pass filter (only enabled in 'Noise Cancelling'
mode). This low-pass filter can be used to compensate for the
change in frequency response that results from the noise
cancellation process. The change in frequency response resembles a first-order high-pass filter, and for many of the
applications it can be compensated by a first-order low-pass
filter with cutoff frequency between 1.5kHz and 2.5kHz.
The transfer function of the low-pass filter is derived as:
The human ear is sensitive for acoustic signals within a frequency range from about 20Hz to 20kHz. Within this range
the sensitivity of the human ear is not equal for each frequency. To approach the hearing response, weighting filters are
introduced. One of those filters is the A-weighted filter.
The A-weighted filter is used in signal to noise measurements,
where the wanted audio signal is compared to device noise
and distortion.
The use of this filter improves the correlation of the measured
values to the way these ratios are perceived by the human
ear.
This low-pass filter is created by connecting a capacitor between the LPF pin and the OUT pin of the LMV1090. The
value of this capacitor also depends on the selected output
gain. For different gains the feedback resistance in the lowpass filter network changes as shown in Table 5.

Low-Pass Filter At The Output
LMV1090
The Mic+ and Mic- inputs of the LMV1090 are AC shorted
between the input capacitors, see Figure 11.
Measuring Noise and SNR
The overall noise of the LMV1090 is measured within the frequency band from 10Hz to 22kHz using an A-weighted filter.
30083311
FIGURE 11. Noise Measurement Setup
For the signal to noise ratio (SNR) the signal level at the output is measured with a 1kHz input signal of 18mVP-P using an
A-weighted filter. This voltage represents the output voltage
of a typical electret condenser microphone at a sound pressure level of 94dB SPL, which is the standard level for these
measurements. The LMV1090 is programmed for 26dB of to-
www.national.com
tal gain (20dB preamplifier and 6dB postamplifier) with only
Mic1 or Mic2 used. (See also I2C Compatible Interface).
The input signal is applied differentially between the Mic+ and
Mic-. Because the part is in Pass Through mode the low-pass
filter at the output of the LMV1090 is disabled.
