Microphone-Array Bluetooth Conference Speaker
Application
- PC and mobile phones can be connected via Bluetooth or USB
- Supports Bluetooth 4.2 and can be easily upgraded to Bluetooth 5.0
- Supports various meeting client software such as Skype, Webex, Zoom, and Tencent Meeting
- Battery-powered, portable
- Supports far-field voice pickup, with a pickup distance of over 5 meters
- Can clearly pick up sound even in slightly noisy environments or rooms with significant echo
DSP Software and Algorithm Design
- Utilizes XMOS audio DSP processing technology
- Beamformer: Enhances voice pickup within the beam while suppressing noise outside the beam
- AEC: Echo cancellation algorithm, mono 16Khz sampling rate, echo suppression ratio reaches 70dB+, Tail Length: 400ms
- DOA: Real-time localization of the speaker's sound source position and angle, accuracy ±5 degrees
- NS: Noise reduction algorithm, capable of suppressing both steady-state and non-steady-state noise, with a suppression ratio of up to 20dB
- AGC: Automatic gain control, high dynamic range, flexible and adjustable
- All the above algorithms provide numerous parameter interfaces for user fine-tuning
- Additionally, offers rich EQ and DRC optional algorithms for correcting the frequency response curves of microphones and speakers
Class D Amplifier
- Uses Infineon's latest Class D technology
- Utilizes 5-level PWM modulation technology in BTL configuration
- Multi-Level modulation technology combines high modulation ratio, lower MOS conduction voltage, lower MOS losses, and filter-less technology
- Infineon's Class D offers high efficiency, ultra-low power consumption, and heat generation, while providing higher THD+N and signal-to-noise ratio
- Suitable for applications requiring long battery life and high sound quality
Bluetooth Module
