Microphone unit for an action camera

There is provided a microphone unit (1) for an action camera, comprising a microphone capsule (10) having at least one speaking hole (11), and a water-tight enclosure (20) which water-tightly encloses the microphone capsule (10). The water-tight enclosure (20) has a water-impermeable passive diaphragm (25) which can oscillate freely and which allows incoming sound to pass substantially undisturbed. The microphone unit has a head (30) having a plurality of holes (31), the head (30) being provided outside the enclosure (20) in front of the passive diaphragm (25). The microphone unit further has a foam portion (40) which is provided in front of the head (30) and has an open-pore foam. The foam portion (40) is in contact with the head (30). The passive diaphragm (25) has an oscillatable minimum area of 20 mm.sup.2; wherein the foam portion (40) has pores which are sufficiently small so that the foam portion (40) can suck water residues away from the holes (31) in the head (30) like a sponge. At the same time however the pores are of such a size that they cannot independently retain water so that water residues, after removal of the microphone unit (1) from the water, run for the greatest part out of the foam portion (40) downwardly under the effect of the force of gravity; wherein the foam portion (40) has a predominant pore density of 15 ppi to 80 ppi.

In a first aspect, the invention relates to a system comprising a MEMS microphone comprising a sound inlet opening, a vibratable microphone membrane and an electronic circuit, wherein when the microphone membrane is excited by sound waves entering through the sound inlet opening, an electrical signal that is dependent on the sound waves is generated by vibrations of the microphone membrane. A damping element for reducing the sound pressure level of the sound waves acting on the microphone membrane is mounted in front of the sound inlet opening, wherein the damping element comprises an elastic and vibratable damping membrane and wherein, in addition to the microphone membrane, the damping element is induced into vibrations by the sound waves such that the sound energy of the sound waves is divided between the damping membrane and the microphone membrane. This makes it possible in particular to extend the measuring range of the MEMS microphone without distortion to high sound pressure levels that could not previously be measured with the MEMS microphones known in the prior art.

In a further aspect, the invention relates to the use of the system according to the invention for aeroacoustic measurements, preferably for measuring sound pressure waves on surfaces of a vehicle component.
