Microphone Preamplifier and Noise Limiter

Microphone Preamplifier and Noise Limiter

The circuit posted here is of a microphone preamplifier and noise limiter. The main role of a microphone preamplifier circuit is to raise the signal level of the microphone output signal. A microphone is a transducer that converts sound signals to electrical signals. The output signal of the microphone is very small in a range of a few millivolts. This signal needs some level of amplification before the power amplification. Generally, the gain of the preamplifier is set to between 30 to 100. Besides pre-amplification, the circuit also limits noise.…

Dual Microphone Preamplifier Circuit

dual microphone preamplifier circuit

The microphone is a transducer that converts sound signals to electrical signals. The output electrical signals are very weak ranging from 1 millivolt to 100 millivolts. Microcontrollers like Atmega328 (Arduino), PIC, STM, etc. cannot detect this signal effectively. Thus, we need an amplifier section. The project posted here is of dual microphone preamplifier circuit which amplifies lower electric output signals of the microphone and makes it suitable for microcontroller input.

Dynamic Microphone Pre-amplifier Circuit

circuit diagram of dynamic microphone pre amplifier

While flowing up the discussion on bestengineeringprojects.com, one of our readers ask about a dynamic microphone pre-amplifier. The dynamic microphone pre-amplifier circuit is a bit different than other microphone pre-amplifier circuits because it consists two-stage amplifier section. Thus, before going through the circuit description we would like to make clear the dynamic microphones. What is Dynamic Microphone? A dynamic microphone is a transducer that converts the sound signal into an electrical signal and works on the electromagnetic induction principle because it contains a moving coil. This microphone is also called…

Speech Filter Circuit

circuit diagram of speech bandpass filter using LM387

A speech filter circuit is a broadband filter and is also called a wide bandpass filter circuit because its bandwidth is restricted to the speech frequency. It can be formed by simple cascading high pass and low pass section and is generally the choice for simplicity of design and performance through such a circuit can be realized by a number of the possible circuits. The butter-worth filter is generally used in audio systems which are characterized by a maximally flat-flat filter. Description of Speech Filter Circuit: A speech filter using…

Audio Mixer Circuit

circuit diagram of audio mixture using lm349

An audio mixer circuit is used to combine output from several microphones/channels into one or more common outputs, usually for public address purposes or while recording. The function of the audio mixture circuit, as the name suggests is to ‘mix’ the different audio signals which are fed to the input for the mixer. In this article, we include various types of audio mixer circuits from the simplest possible transistor audio mixer circuit to the high-end audio mixer preamplifier using an operational amplifier. Description and Working of Audio Mixture Circuit The…

Low Pass Filter Circuit | Low Pass Filter Design

circuit diagram of low pass filter using lm387

An electric filter or simply a filter is an electric network that passes or allows without loss, the transmission of electric signal within a certain frequency range but stops or disallows transmission of electric signal outside this frequency range. The low-pass filter circuit is also known as a scratch filter and is used to roll off excessive high-frequency noise from worn-out records and tapes. Or we can also define low pass filter as, it passes all frequencies up to a specified frequency, called the cutoff frequencies fc, and reject all…
