StarStarStarStar

Loudspeaker

StarStarStarStar

Converts electrical energy into acoustic energy, allowing sound to be amplified and heard by an audience.

StarStarStarStar

Microphone

StarStarStarStar

Captures acoustic energy and converts it to electrical energy. Commonly used in recording and broadcasting.

StarStarStarStar

Piezoelectric Transducer

StarStarStarStar

Uses the piezoelectric effect to convert electrical signals into mechanical vibrations or vice versa, often used in high-frequency applications.

StarStarStarStar

Impedance Matching

StarStarStarStar

The process of making the input impedance of an electrical load equal to the output impedance of the source to maximize power transfer and minimize reflections.

StarStarStarStar

Inductive Pickup

StarStarStarStar

Captures electromagnetic energy from a source, such as a guitar string, and converts it to an electrical signal.

StarStarStarStar

Dynamic Microphone

StarStarStarStar

Uses a diaphragm attached to a coil of wire in the magnetic field of a magnet to capture sound and convert it into an electrical signal, often used on stage for live performances.

StarStarStarStar

Ultrasonic Transducer

StarStarStarStar

Converts electrical energy into ultrasound waves and vice versa, typically used in medical imaging and industrial non-destructive testing.

StarStarStarStar

Laser Microphone

StarStarStarStar

Detects sound vibrations from a distance by using a laser beam and measuring the modulations caused by the sound on the reflected light, often used in surveillance.

StarStarStarStar

FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) Analysis

StarStarStarStar

A mathematical algorithm used to transform time-domain data into frequency-domain data, enabling the analysis of signal frequencies and amplitudes.

StarStarStarStar

Acoustic Echo Cancellation

StarStarStarStar

Algorithms designed to detect and reduce echo in audio communication systems to improve speech clarity.

StarStarStarStar

Electret Microphone

StarStarStarStar

Employs a permanently charged material to form a capacitor with a fixed charge, providing a stable electrical pattern in response to sound.

StarStarStarStar

Acoustic Feedback

StarStarStarStar

The phenomenon where sound loops between an audio output and input device, such as a microphone and loudspeaker, causing a loud noise.

StarStarStarStar

Capacitive Microphone

StarStarStarStar

Uses a capacitor with a variable distance between the plates to convert sound pressure into an electrical signal, often used in studio recording.

StarStarStarStar

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Shielding

StarStarStarStar

The use of materials and techniques to protect electronic equipment from electromagnetic interference, which can cause noise and disruptions in audio signals.

StarStarStarStar

Waveguides

StarStarStarStar

Structures used to direct the transmission of sound waves, commonly found in loudspeaker and horn designs to control dispersion and enhance efficiency.

StarStarStarStar

Sound Pressure Level Meter

StarStarStarStar

A device used to measure the pressure level of sound, quantifying the perceived loudness of noise.

StarStarStarStar

Active Noise Control

StarStarStarStar

Uses an additional noise-cancelling signal to reduce unwanted sound by destructive interference, commonly found in noise-cancelling headphones.

StarStarStarStar

Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC)

StarStarStarStar

Converts digital audio signals into analog signals so that electronic devices like speakers can create sound that humans can hear.

StarStarStarStar

Ribbon Microphone

StarStarStarStar

Uses a thin metal ribbon suspended in a magnetic field to detect sound and translate it into an electrical signal, known for its sensitivity and natural sound.

StarStarStarStar

Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC)

StarStarStarStar

Converts analog audio signals into digital format for processing, storing, or transmitting.
