GENERAL DESCRIPTION 

The T5919 is a multi-mode, low noise digital MEMS 
microphone in a small package. The T5919 consists of a 
MEMS microphone element and an impedance converter 
amplifier followed by a fourth-

order Σ

-

Δ 

modulator. The digital 

interface allows the pulse density modulated (PDM) output of 
two microphones to be time multiplexed on a single data line 
using a single clock.  
 
The T5919 has multiple modes of operation: High Quality, 
Low-Power (AlwaysOn), and Sleep. The T5919 has high SNR in 
all operational modes. It has 135 dB SPL AOP in High Quality 
Mode and 120 dB SPL AOP in Low-Power mode. 
 
The T5919 is available in a standard 3.5 × 2.65 × 0.98 mm 
surface-mount package. It is reflow solder compatible with 
no sensitivity degradation. The package integrates a Particle 
Ingress Filter (PIF) for enhanced robustness to environmental 
contaminants such as water and dust.
