The input resistance of the LM386 is typically 50k ohms. If the 100k volume control is turned down a little then the slider is halfway and 50k ohms is in parallel with the 50k ohms of the IC and the other 50k of the trimpot is in series with the resulting 25k making a total resistance of 75k for the 0.22uF capacitor to feed.XT.5155 said:BTW could you explain how to choose the most optimum value for the capacitor from mic to the amplifier.
The LM380 does not have enough gain to be a mic amplifier. Its gain is only 50 and the gain of the LM386 with the optional gain boosting capacitor is 200. Maybe its gain can be increased with some positive feedback. it has an input resistance that is 3 times higher than the LM386 so the input coupling capacitor from the mic can have a lower value for good bass response.If I want to use LM380, the mic section would be similar wouldn't it.
Audioguru said:the cutoff frequency is 9.4Hz and the response is flat down to about 47Hz.
No.XT.5155 said:Ahha, the fundamental reason of capacitor is the frequncy response of the circuit.
Simply look at their datasheets:b_manohar said:In the above mentioned link they have used bc549c translstor instead of that can't we use sL100 y?
an electret mic has 48VDC built into its electret material. a Jfet transistor inside the mic is powered from a resistor to a filtered supply voltage. the Jfet matches the extremely high impedance of the "condenser' parts that move in the mic to a much lower impedance.b_manohar said:i want to know the design procedure for amplification of electret micro phone output to give the amplified o/p to the adc.

Audioguru said:The mic and the 10k resistor thay powers it are about 2.5k.
