FAN3852
Microphone Pre-Amplifier
with Digital Output
Description
The FAN3852 integrates a preamplifier, LDO, and ADC that
converts Electret Condenser Microphone (ECM) outputs to digital
Pulse Density Modulation (PDM) data streams. The preamplifier
accepts analog signals from the ECM and drives an oversampled
sigma delta AnalogtoDigital Converter (ADC) and outputs PDM
data. The PDM digital audio has the advantage of noise rejection and
easy interface to mobile handset processors.
The FAN3852 features an integrated LDO and is powered from the
system supply rails up to 3.63 V, with low power consumption of only
0.85 mW and less than 20 mW in PowerDown Mode.

A 0.1 mF decoupling capacitor is required for VDD. It can
be located inside the microphone or on the PCB very close
to the VDD pin.
Due to high input impedance, care should be taken to
remove all flux used during the reflow soldering process.
A 100 W resistance is recommended on the clock output
of the device driving the FAN3852 to minimize ringing and
improve signal integrity.
For optimal PSR, route a trace to the VDD pin. Do not
place a VDD plane under the device.
