xMEMS Announces Mass Production of Cypress Full-Range PiezoMEMS Ultrasonic Transducer

xMEMS Labs announced that its Cypress full-range MEMS “sound-from-ultrasound” microspeaker, together with the Alta-S companion drive ASIC, is now ready for mass production. This represents the industry’s first commercially viable full-range solid-state audio solution capable of meeting the demanding Sound Pressure Level (SPL) requirements for noise-cancelling true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds. It also indicates that xMEMS is fully convinced that the device will be deemed safe to humans and for extended usage inside the ears.

xMEMS Introduces Amplifier-Less MEMS Tweeter for 2-Way Wireless Earbuds

xMEMS unveiled Lassen, the company’s latest member of its growing µFidelity range of MEMS drivers, and the first “amplifier-less” MEMS tweeter optimized for 2-way True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earbuds. According to xMEMS, Lassen brings a number of advantages with no need for a piezo amplifier, reducing cost, size, and power consumption while maintaining exceptional sound performance with up to 115dB SPL in the 6kHz–20kHz range. For manufacturers, Lassen lowers integration costs by 25% making room for other advanced features, and allowing consistent sound quality in mass production.
