01 — About

What it does

The INMP441 is a high-performance, low-power, digital-output omnidirectional MEMS microphone module with a bottom port. It integrates a MEMS sensor, signal conditioning, analog-to-digital converter, anti-aliasing filter, and an industry-standard 24-bit I2S interface, allowing direct connection to microcontrollers and digital processors such as the ESP32, STM32, and Raspberry Pi without requiring an external audio codec [web:71][web:73].

Key features

  • Digital I2S interface with high-precision 24-bit data
  • Omnidirectional bottom-port MEMS sensor
  • High signal-to-noise ratio of 61 dBA
  • High sensitivity of -26 dBFS
  • Stable flat frequency response from 60 Hz to 15 kHz
  • Low power consumption with current draw of only 1.4 mA
  • High power supply rejection (PSR) of -75 dBFS
  • Direct connection to digital processors without audio codec
  • Compact surface-mount package for space-constrained designs
  • Easy integration with ESP32, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and STM32

Good to know

  • This is a bottom-port microphone; ensure the sound inlet hole on the PCB is not obstructed by tape, glue, or enclosure walls.
  • Operates at 1.8V to 3.3V logic; use a level shifter if interfacing with 5V microcontrollers.
  • L/R pin selects the I2S channel: connect to GND for left channel, or VDD for right channel.
  • Requires a microcontroller or processor with I2S peripheral support for proper operation.
  • Avoid exposing the microphone to moisture, dust, or mechanical shock.
  • Refer to your microcontroller’s I2S pin mapping for correct SCK, WS, and SD wiring.
