MEMS Microphones for automotive

As part of our comprehensive XENSIV™ sensor family, we now also offer high-performance MEMS microphones qualified according to the state-of-the-art automotive quality standard AEC-Q103-003. These automotive microphones close the industry gap, providing the best possible fit for automotive applications. Automotive XENSIV™ MEMS microphones combine our proven expertise in the automotive industry with our technical leadership in high-end silicon microphones.

They are suited to all applications inside and outside the car, where the best audio performance in harsh automotive environments is required. These automotive microphones enable distortion-free audio capture for all speech-related applications, improving speech intelligibility for voice recognition algorithms. In addition, our sensors perfectly support microphones for ANC (Acoustic Noise Cancellation) with its flat frequency and stable phase response. Other highlights include close sensitivity and phase matching, making automotive XENSIV™ MEMS mics ideal for beamforming arrays. Furthermore, Infineon’s automotive microphone technology contributes to road safety, as they can be employed to pick up sounds like sirens from emergency vehicles or to detect dangerous road conditions.

The extended availability of these silicon devices matches the typical long lifecycle of a vehicle. Application for the different automotive microphones range from various interior and exterior applications, revolutionizing the use of ATV microphones for a wide range of applications.
