APPLICATION DATA
INTRODUCTION
The LMV1090 is a fully analog single chip solution to reduce the far field noise picked up by microphones in a
communication system. A simplified block diagram is provided in Figure 17.

Cancelling Ouput
Block OUT-
Mic2
The output signal of the microphones is amplified by a pre-amplifier with adjustable gain between 6dB and 36dB.
After the signals are matched the analog noise cancelling suppresses the far field noise signal. The output of the
analog noise cancelling processor is amplified in the post amplifier with adjustable gain between 6dB and 18dB.
For optimum noise and EMI immunity, the microphones have a differential connection to the LMV1090 and the
output of the LMV1090 is also differential. The adjustable gain functions can be controlled via I2C.
Shutdown Function
As part of the Powerwise™ family, the LMV1090 consumes only 0.50mA of current. In many applications the part
does not need to be continuously operational. To further reduce the power consumption in the inactive period,
the LMV1090 provides two individual microphone power down functions. When either one of the shutdown
functions is activated the part will go into shutdown mode consuming only a few μA of supply current.
The gain ranges and maximum signal levels for the different functional blocks are shown in Figure 18. Two
examples are given as a guideline on how to select proper gain settings.

Example 1
An application using microphones with 50mVP-P maximum output voltage, and a baseband chip after the
LMV1091 with 1.5VP-P maximum input voltage.
For optimum noise performance, the gain of the input stage should be set to the maximum.
1. 50mVP-P +36 dB = 3.1VP-P.
2. 3.1VP-P is higher than the maximum 1.4VP-P allowed for the Noise Cancelling Block (NCB). This means a
gain lower than 29.5dB should be selected.
3. Select the nearest lower gain from the gain settings shown in Table 4, 28dB is selected. This will prevent the
NCP from being overloaded by the microphone. With this setting, the resulting output level of the Pre
Amplifier will be 1.26VP-P.
4. The NCB has a gain of 0dB which will result in 1.26VP-P at the output of the LMV1091. This level is less than
maximum level that is allowed at the input of the post amp of the LMV1091.
5. The baseband chip limits the maximum output voltage to 1.5VP-P with the minimum of 6dB post amp gain,
this results in requiring a lower level at the input of the post amp of 0.75VP-P. Now calculating this for a
maximum preamp gain, the output of the preamp must be no more than 0.75VP-P.
6. Calculating the new gain for the preamp will result in <23.5dB gain.
7. The nearest lower gain will be 22dB.
So using preamp gain = 22dB and postamp gain = 6dB is the optimum for this application.
Example 2
An application using microphones with 10mVP-P maximum output voltage, and a baseband chip after the
LMV1090 with 3.3VP-P maximum input voltage.
For optimum noise performance we would like to have the maximum gain at the input stage.
1. 10mVP-P + 36dB = 631mVP-P.
2. This is lower than the maximum 1.5VP-P so this is OK.
3. The NCB has a gain of 0dB which will result in 1.5VP-P at the output of the LMV1091. This level is lower than
maximum level that is allowed at the input of the Post Amp of the LMV1091.
4. With a Post Amp gain setting of 6dB the output of the Post Amp will be 3VP-P which is OK for the baseband.
5. The nearest lower Post Amp gain will be 6dB.
So using preamp gain = 36dB and postamp gain = 6dB is optimum for this application.

Microphone Placement
Because the LMV1090 is a microphone array Far Field Noise Reduction solution, proper microphone placement
is critical for optimum performance. Two things need to be considered: The spacing between the two
microphones and the position of the two microphones relative to near field source
If the spacing between the two microphones is too small near field speech will be canceled along with the far
field noise. Conversely, if the spacing between the two microphones is large, the far field noise reduction
performance will be degraded. The optimum spacing between Mic 1 and Mic 2 is 1.5-2.5cm. This range provides
a balance of minimal near field speech loss and maximum far field noise reduction. The microphones should be
in line with the desired sound source 'near speech' and configured in an endfire array (see Figure 23) orientation
from the sound source. If the 'near speech' (desired sound source) is equidistant to the source like a broadside
array (see Figure 22) the result will be a great deal of near field speech loss.

A-Weighted Filter
The human ear is sensitive for acoustic signals within a frequency range from about 20Hz to 20kHz. Within this
range the sensitivity of the human ear is not equal for each frequency. To approach the hearing response,
weighting filters are introduced. One of those filters is the A-weighted filter.
The A-weighted filter is used in signal to noise measurements, where the wanted audio signal is compared to
device noise and distortion.
The use of this filter improves the correlation of the measured values to the way these ratios are perceived by
the human ear.

For the signal to noise ratio (SNR) the signal level at the output is measured with a 1kHz input signal of 18mVP-P
using an A-weighted filter. This voltage represents the output voltage of a typical electret condenser microphone
at a sound pressure level of 94dB SPL, which is the standard level for these measurements. The LMV1090 is
programmed for 26dB of total gain (20dB preamplifier and 6dB postamplifier) with only Mic1 or Mic2 used. (See
also I2C Compatible Interface).
The input signal is applied differentially between the Mic+ and Mic-. Because the part is in Pass Through mode
the low-pass filter at the output of the LMV1090 is disabled.
