New SIRIUS MIC200 Amplifier for the Direct Input of Externally Polarized Microphones
SIRIUS product line now includes an amplifier with the direct input for 200 V externally polarized microphones.
SIRIUS MIC200 amplifier introduces the support for standard externally polarized microphones to the innovative Dewesoft measurement environment. SIRIUS MIC200 is the perfect tool for highly advanced measurements with support for any externally polarized microphones in a plug-and-play manner through a dedicated 7-pin LEMO connection. The new amplifier is based on the SIRUS DualCoreADC® technology.
Main features
High dynamic capabilities (-160 dB)
High acquisition rate (200 kS/s)
Multi-brand microphone support
TEDS support (Class 2)
Preamplifier excitation (± 14 V)
Reference test signal input
The main benefit of external polarizing is freedom in the choice of microphones. It opens access to a broader selection and more models are available, which again gives flexibility in advanced R&D measurements. External polarization is an advantage whenever:
high temporal stability is required
high temperatures are expected (120-150 °C)
high amplitudes are expected
higher frequencies need to be measured
high grade of accuracy and lower noise floor is required
SIRIUS MIC200 is designed for channel-to-channel isolation. Currently, the product is available as an 8-channel MIC200 slice or as a combination of 4 MIC200 channels and 4 ACC/ACC+ channels.
