Abstract: A surface mounted device (SMD) type biased condenser microphone includes two terminals for a surface mounting process. The SMD type biased condenser microphone includes a grounding terminal for connecting with an external circuit, a diaphragm/backplate set, one end of which is connected to the grounding terminal, for varying a capacity according to an intensity of sound pressure and converting sound into an electric signal, a DC-DC converter for providing a bias voltage so as to form an electrostatic field at one side of the diaphragm/backplate set, a buffer IC for amplifying the electric signal from the diaphragm/backplate set, and a decoupling capacitor for preventing the bias voltage output from the DC-DC converter from being directly applied to the buffer IC and transferring the electric signal from the diaphragm/backplate set to the buffer IC.

Abstract: A condenser microphone and a method of mounting a condenser microphone on a main PCB are provided. The method includes assembling the condenser microphone by assembling elements of the condenser microphone such that a vibration plate including a diaphragm and a backplate is directed toward an opened surface of a casing of the condenser microphone. The casing has a closed bottom surface and an opened surface opposite to the closed bottom surface. A PCB includes a sound hole. The assembled condenser microphone is positioned on a main PCB such that the sound hole of the PCB is aligned in accordance with a through hole formed in the main PCB. According to the present invention, if necessary, the main PCB can be mounted such that its elements surface is directed toward an inside of an electronic product, thereby maintaining good sound quality due to a short delivery path of sound waves.
