Product details
Overview
IMP34DT05TR from STMicroelectronics is an ultra-compact, low-power, omnidirectional digital MEMS microphone with PDM output, –26 dBFS ±3 dB sensitivity, 64 dB(A) signal-to-noise ratio, and 122.5 dBSPL acoustic overload point. It operates from 1.6–3.6 V over –40 °C to +85 °C in industrial audio sensing applications including predictive maintenance and sound-triggered alarm systems.
For engineers reviewing the IMP34DT05TR datasheet, IMP34DT05TR pinout, IMP34DT05TR application, or IMP34DT05TR equivalent, key selection criteria include PDM timing compliance (1.2–3.25 MHz clock), L/R channel configuration logic, EMI-shielded HCLGA package integration, and power-down current of 5 µA for battery-sensitive designs.
Technical Context
The IMP34DT05TR integrates a capacitive silicon MEMS sensing element with a dedicated CMOS interface IC to deliver single-bit PDM output synchronized to an external clock. Its L/R pin selects left/right data alignment on DOUT by controlling high-impedance states per clock edge - enabling stereo pairing without additional control logic.
It features A-weighted SNR of 64 dB at 94 dB SPL, THD+N of 0.2% at 94 dBSPL, and guaranteed operation across –40 °C to +85 °C. The device uses a top-port HCLGA package with integrated EMI shielding and a grounded ring for mechanical robustness and acoustic integrity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage | 1.6–3.6 V - supports direct connection to 1.8 V or 3.3 V system rails without regulation |
| Current consumption (normal mode) | 650 µA typical - enables multi-microphone arrays in power-constrained edge nodes |
| Sensitivity | –26 dBFS ±3 dB - ensures consistent digital output level across production units for calibrated audio processing |
| SNR | 64 dB(A) - provides sufficient dynamic range for voice interface and noise-cancellation algorithms |
| Acoustic overload point | 122.5 dBSPL - withstands loud transient events (e.g., alarms, machinery bursts) without clipping |
| Input clock frequency | 1.2–3.25 MHz - aligns with standard PDM decimation filters in DSPs and audio SoCs |
| Turn-on time | 10 ms - defines minimum wake-up latency after power-down exit for responsive triggering |
Pinout & Package
HCLGA 4LD package (3 × 4 × 1 mm), top-port, EMI-shielded, SMD-compliant, with exposed ground ring for mechanical stability and RF immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Vdd | Power supply input | Supplies both MEMS transducer and CMOS interface; requires local 100 nF + 1 µF decoupling |
| LR | Left/right channel select | Logic-high selects right-channel data on rising CLK; logic-low selects left-channel data on falling CLK |
| CLK | Synchronization clock input | Drives internal sampling and PDM bitstream timing; duty cycle must be 40–60% |
| DOUT | PDM data output | Single-bit stream carrying left/right audio based on LR state; high-impedance when inactive |
| GND (ring) | Ground reference and EMI shield anchor | Exposed metal ring provides low-inductance return path and shields internal circuitry from board noise |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Omnidirectional PDM output | Enables consistent 360° acoustic capture without directional bias, simplifying PCB layout in compact enclosures |
| EMI-shielded HCLGA package | Integrated metal can suppresses radiated noise coupling into sensitive analog front-end, critical for industrial EMI environments |
| L/R channel selection via single pin | Eliminates need for separate left/right devices or external multiplexing logic in stereo configurations |
| Low power-down current (5 µA) | Supports always-listening modes in battery-powered vibration monitors and anti-tampering sensors |
| –40 °C to +85 °C operating range | Validated for deployment in harsh industrial settings including factory floors and outdoor security systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital MEMS microphone applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| INMP522DTTR | Lower SNR (61 dB), no EMI shielding, bottom-port package | Less suitable for noisy industrial PCBs; requires careful layout isolation | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs EMI robustness and SNR margin |
| MP34DT06JTR | Higher sensitivity (–26 dBFS same), but wider tolerance (±4 dB); identical HCLGA package | Acceptable where tighter sensitivity matching is not required for calibration | Choose for legacy compatibility if existing designs use MP34DT06JTR footprint |
Compared with INMP522DTTR and MP34DT06JTR, the IMP34DT05TR delivers superior EMI immunity and tighter sensitivity tolerance, making it optimal for industrial-grade audio sensing where board-level noise and unit-to-unit consistency are critical.

FAQ
What is the recommended power supply decoupling for IMP34DT05TR?
Place a 100 nF ceramic capacitor and a 1 µF ceramic capacitor as close as possible to Pin 1 (Vdd), with short, low-inductance traces to the ground ring. This minimizes supply ripple and prevents modulation of the PDM output due to switching noise on shared rails.
How does the L/R pin configure stereo operation?
When LR = Vdd, valid PDM data appears on DOUT at CLK high; when LR = GND, valid data appears at CLK low. Two IMP34DT05TRs can be wired in parallel with opposite LR states to generate interleaved left/right streams without external logic.
Is the IMP34DT05TR susceptible to mechanical shock during assembly?
Yes - the MEMS diaphragm is sensitive to mechanical shock. ST specifies strict pick-and-place guidelines: avoid vacuum contact with the top port, limit nozzle vacuum to ≤7 psi, and use the recommended cross-recessed nozzle to prevent membrane deformation during SMT placement.
What soldering profile should be used for the HCLGA package?
Follow JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 3 profile: peak temperature ≤260 °C, time above liquidus (217 °C) 60–150 sec, ramp-up rate ≤3 °C/sec, and total time from 25 °C to peak ≤8 minutes. Land pattern must match Figure 12 in DS12725 Rev 4.
