Description
The MP34DT02 is an ultra-compact, low-power,
omnidirectional, digital MEMS microphone built
with a capacitive sensing element and an IC
interface.
The sensing element, capable of detecting
acoustic waves, is manufactured using a
specialized silicon micromachining process
dedicated to produce audio sensors.
The IC interface is manufactured using a CMOS
process that allows designing a dedicated circuit
able to provide a digital signal externally in PDM
format.
The MP34DT02 has an acoustic overload point of
120 dBSPL with a 60 dB signal-to-noise ratio and
–26 dBFS sensitivity.
The MP34DT02 is available in a top-port, SMD-
compliant, EMI-shielded package and is
guaranteed to operate over an extended
temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C.

Process recommendations MP34DT02
14/16 DocID026560 Rev 2
9 Process recommendations
To ensure a consistent manufacturing process it is strongly advised to comply with following
recommendations:
– The recommended pick-up area for the MP34DT02 package must be defined
using the worst case (ie. no device alignment during picking process). This area
has been defined considering all the tolerances of the components involved (reel,
package, sound inlet). Picker tolerance shall be considered as well.
– To prevent damage to the MEMS membrane or incorrect pick-up and placement,
do not pick up the component on the inlet area
– For the package outline please refer to Figure 10. Nozzle shape, size, and
placement accuracy are the other key factors to consider when deciding on the
coordinates for the picking.
– Device alignment before picking is highly recommended.
– A vacuum force greater than 7 psi must be avoided
– 1 kPa = 0.145 psi (lb/in2) = 0.0102 kgf/cm² = 0.0098 atm
– All the recommended dimensions (device safe pick area) do not include the pick
and place equipment tolerances
– According to Figure 10, standard picker tool can be used to handle this device
