Data brief
STEVAL-CCA023V1
Description
The STEVAL-CCA023V1 demonstration board is
designed as an evaluation platform for the TS472
low noise microphone preamplifier with 2.0 V bias
and active low standby mode.
The board supports customization of the testing
conditions, allowing the gain of the TS472 device
to be adjusted, or an electret microphone to be
biased either externally or using the TS472 builtin 2.0 V bias voltage.
