Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of Long-distance Control microphone, this microphone comprises from audio frequency amplifier, power-supplying circuit, processor, control electronic device, A/D and D/A converter, at least one microphone capsule of selecting in the group of light-emitting diode display etc., with at least one other power receiver, their power supply is a phantom power unit from the cable conductor that passes through audio frequency cable, i.e. so-called " phantom power supplied ".
Background technology
The power supply power supply of microphone is to be provided by a power supply traditionally, for example, utilizes frequency mixer.In phantom power supplied process, the positive pole of feed voltage is that two the equal feed resistance (feeder residence) by two cable conductors of audio frequency cable apply.The electric current that returns flows through from the 3rd lead of the electric connection 1 that is connected to the XLR plug.For can effectively utilize for Electret Condencer Microphone by the phantom power supplied voltage that provides, the current drain of microphone should be as much as possible little, to prevent the excessive pressure drop on feed resistance.The maximum current consumption of 48-V Electret Condencer Microphone is 10mA.According to DIN EN61938 (IEC268 originally), phantom power here is standardized.
For in the polarizing voltage in 20-100V direct voltage scope normally of generation value on the microphone membrane, can mainly utilize combinational circuit parts or electric pressure converter.Remaining microphone electronics generally is to provide power supply by linear regulation, and this can maintain a predetermined value with power feed voltage or source current.For the microphone with little power consumption, the power supply of the type is suitable.By using processor, when A/D converter, light-emitting diode display or the like caused the power consumption in the microphone to increase, this linear regulation can become problem when for example.In this case, be depleted in linear trim by most of the obtainable energy of phantom power.Yet, according to standard because phantom power is by feed resistance restriction electric current, so the maximum supply power voltage that is used for audio amplifier because reduce immediately in the linear regulation of microphone, this causes the reduction of the maximal audio output voltage of microphone.
Other problem comprises the generation of polarizing voltage.Normally microphone membrane is applied this voltage by a high-ohmic resistance.Here, required power is very low.Being used to produce this efficient adjuster that is actually the inactivity polarizing voltage also is difficult to construct.
Another problem is the Long-distance Control about microphone.Utilize microphone, exist a kind of needs of growth, can regulate or change important microphone parameters by Long-distance Control.These parameters are included in type, sequence number, the weakening degree and can be connected filter with that is used for sound signal from the calibration data of manufacturer and signal of directive property, the phantom power (12V, 24V or 48V) of associated sensitivity, the microphone of polarizing voltage on the film and Electret Condencer Microphone.
US 6 028 946 A (with corresponding EP 0 794 686 A2) file discloses a digital microphone.Audio signal is digitized by analogue-to-digital converters, and two passage digital audio signals of generation are transmitted by the two line conductors of a symmetry or the amplifier of an association.The power supply of microphone is that two line conductors by this symmetry provide.Mention indirectly in passing, in the amplifier of association, pulse can be modulated onto on the supply voltage of microphone, the Long-distance Control that this sets as loud speaker.It must be noted that in context the follow-up transmission of the notion of digital microphone and digital signal is different from a simulation microphone fully, wherein analog signal transmits by the phantom power line.The transmission that transmits the other modulation signal on the circuit of digital signal does not at the same time cause any problem because digital audio and video signals can be easily from an other modulation signal separately.
Other problem that does not solve best so far is the generation about polarizing voltage on the film of Electret Condencer Microphone.The level of polarizing voltage is directly to be included in the level of sensitivity of microphone capsule.As a result, under the help of polarizing voltage, also may come the sensitivity of control capacittance formula carbon capsule.Under the situation that the single film with polarizing voltage is powered separately, be used in combination two film carbon capsules, this is particularly advantageous, because these carbon capsules not only allow to regulate sensitivity, and allows to regulate directive property.
It is known how regulating polarizing voltage under the help of fixed resistance or semifixed resistor.In this process, in the assembling of microphone, the disposable adjusting of polarizing voltage takes place.Here, it is scheduled that directive property once can utilized fixing resistance ratios.Utilize this method, cause, and the tolerance limit compensation of the sensitivity that is caused by ageing process has difficulty by the assembling of microphone capsule.For this purpose, in the audio frequency measuring process of the sensitivity in the assembled state of microphone, a compensation of polarizing voltage will be needed.The tolerance limit compensation of carrying out sensitivity under different directive property situations is also unlikely.
The U.S. 4,541,112 A (with EP 0 096 778 B1 of correspondence) number file discloses an electroacoustic transducing device system with scalable pulse generator, and DC converts AC to electric current.A transformer that is connected to pulse generator allows the single power receiver of inductance decoupling.Current supply circuit is to be inductively coupled to the alternating current that is produced by pulse generator by the separate winding on the transformer.This document is included in the description of this paper, as a reference.
Summary of the invention
About the power supply of microphone, need a kind of solution, wherein the power supply that is obtained by phantom power is used by optimum, and be converted into as audio amplifier microphone capsule, processor, controller, A/D converter, the required operating voltage of output receiver that light-emitting diode display or the like is independent.Here, target will be to utilize the part of the power supply that obtains by phantom power to power to audio amplifier as wide as possible.
Utilize a microphone that comprises the power-supplying circuit that is used for independent power supply receiver can reach these targets, the feature of its microphone shows as, power-supplying circuit comprises that a direct current that will transmit by the cable conductor of voice-frequency cable is converted to the control unit of alternating current, a transformer that is connected to control unit, with the current supply circuit that is used for independent power supply receiver, wherein current supply circuit is inductively coupled to the alternating current that is produced by control unit by the separate winding on the transformer, and coupled to each other between these current supply circuits.
In this process, desired all voltages of above-mentioned power supply receiver are to be produced by a power-supplying circuit, are for example produced by a DC/DC transducer, and it has following characteristics.This power-supplying circuit is to be conditioned by this way or to operate, and a power adaptation to the phantom power unit is promptly arranged.Therefore, the power supply of the attainable maximum possible in phantom power unit can be always consumed by the power-supplying circuit of microphone.The source current drain of power-supplying circuit is constant.Therefore, with respect to the phantom power unit, power-supplying circuit similarly is a constant current sink.The independent current supply circuit of single power supply receiver in power-supplying circuit by transformer by uncoupling, require with the difference of going with as far as possible little power loss to satisfy single power receiver: the high voltage and the little electric current that are used for polarizing voltage, medium voltate and be used for the medium current consumption of audio amplifier, and the low-voltage and big electric current that are used for digital electron device.
According to the present invention, the advantageous effects of Electret Condencer Microphone is tangible: utilize the power supply power supply notion that proposes, the electric energy of being realized by the phantom power unit optimally is employed.As a result, microphone can be provided new function (for example, Long-distance Control, new operating concept, the automatic possibility of compensation, or the like), and the maximal audio output voltage of microphone remains unchanged.Basically the generation that is the polarizing voltage of no power consumption is actually as being taken place by the byproduct of the simple other coil generation on transformer.
An other advantage is, use result as a high as far as possible ohm level, utilize a constant power supply in the input of power-supplying circuit, the switching fluctuation of power-supplying circuit or the switching fluctuation of DC/DC transducer can be filtered easily.
The adaptation possibility that utilization increases in microphone, as change the change of the microprocessor control signal of the lasting variation of directive property of polarizing voltage and sensitivity thereof, two film carbon capsules and storage calibration data, and the modification of frequency range, the modification of maximal audio output voltage, or the modification of the THD of audio amplifier, therefore exist a kind of needs, promptly, will reportedly be passed to microphone with higher rate basically by a Long-distance Control.
According to the present invention, these targets can reach by the method for Long-distance Control microphone, it is characterized in that, fm voltage is to be applied in two cable conductors at least one as control signal, pass through cable conductor, also Phantom Power can take place, and be applied to a control electronic device at the fm voltage of microphone side, for example a microcontroller or a CPLD (complex programmable logic equipment), microcontroller or a CPLD can send order to single power receiver according to fm control signal.
In the method, a fm voltage is superimposed upon on the supply power voltage of phantom power.Transfer of data be from a transmitter by audio line to microphone, for example, transmitter is to be configured in a mixture table or the equipment before mixture table.The carrier frequency of FSK modulation here is the audio range that is higher than by the microphone transmission.
By utilizing frequency-modulated signal transmission, compare with utilizing galvanic transmission, can obtain a higher basically message transmission rate.As a result, utilize a certain protocol, a large amount of parameters can be transmitted.The preferably about 100kHz of the carrier frequency that is used to modulate, they can utilize filter to separate from sound signal.
This requirement for the low tolerance in the polarizing voltage that satisfies Electret Condencer Microphone, for example, consider sensitivity, arrive ± tolerance limit of 0.5dB, this needs a kind of solution, even allow also can carry out the flexible of polarizing voltage under the assembled state of microphone.
According to the present invention, this can obtain by Electret Condencer Microphone, it is characterized in that, Electret Condencer Microphone comprises at least one circuit that is used to regulate polarizing voltage, the circuit of wherein regulating polarizing voltage comprises the analog regulation loop that provides a non-regulation voltage, and digital regulation loop, wherein, digital regulation loop comprises a control electronic device, for example a microprocessor or a CPLD offer the desired value that is used for polarizing voltage of analog regulation loop, and it utilizes correction factor to calculate, and the purpose in order to feed back, the output of analog regulation loop is to be connected with the control electronic device.
In this process, polarizing voltage is to regulate by a voltage regulation loop that is integrated in the microphone.The desired value of polarizing voltage is to be based upon in advance in this circuit by D/A converter by the control electronic device.As a result, can carry out the classification fine setting of polarizing voltage.The desired value of polarizing voltage also can be transferred to the control electronic device by Long-distance Control.The tolerance limit of the polarizing voltage that obtains depends on the tolerance limit and the thermal response of reference voltage source now.
The adjusting of the polarizing voltage by digital control regulating loop in microphone allows the adjusting of remote-controllable of the polarizing voltage of point-device, jamproof and Electret Condencer Microphone.As a result, in the process of the manufacturing of Electret Condencer Microphone and measuring technique checking, may obtain very narrow tolerance limit about sensitivity and directive property require be.The advantage that the remote-controllable adjustment of polarizing voltage has is, no longer is necessary by readjusting of fixed resistance or semifixed resistor; This fact has a good effect aspect cost.Compare with the existing solution of utilizing changeless polarizing voltage, the relevant following other possibility of Electret Condencer Microphone according to the present invention can occur.
As the function of the independent feature of two film carbon capsules, under the situation of differently regulating directive property, different microphone sensitivity can be compensated, and can store the needed correction factor that requires of compensation polarizing voltage.

Embodiment
Fig. 1 is the block diagram of expression according to the critical piece of a microphone of the present invention.Phantom power at the microphone shown in Fig. 5 is to be carried out by the identical feed resistance 32,33 of value by phantom power unit 31, and this feed resistance the 32, the 33rd is configured in the back of three pole sockets 4 of a for example XLR socket that can be in mixture table or before the mixture table.Such phantom power is to be illustrated among Fig. 5.According to standard, three phantom power are possible: the correlation that is used for the feed resistance of 12V, 24V or 48V power supply is respectively 680 Ω, 1.2K Ω, or 6.8K Ω.The cable conductor that circuit 1 here and 2 representatives are provided by phantom power unit; Circuit 3 representatives are typically connected to the ground wire of the cable shield of ground connection.By audio frequency cable, promptly by circuit 1,2 and resistance 5,6, phantom power unit 31 is connected to the input according to power-supplying circuit 11 of the present invention.Electric capacity 7 is with respect to the level and smooth supply power voltage in ground.Resistance 5 and 6 is the feed resistance in the microphone.Use them so that the power supply of microphone from the output decoupling of audio amplifier 10.The feed resistance 5 and 6 of microphone is assigned with the other interior resistance as phantom power 31.When the interior resistance of phantom power unit equals the interior resistance of power-supplying circuit 11 in the microphone, there is electric energy adaptive (poweradaption).Like this, under the situation of power adjustments, the voltage of the phantom power of half is the supply power voltage that is used for power-supplying circuit 11.This electric energy of the maximum that can be produced by phantom power unit 31 is the parts of distributing to all energy consumptions in the microphone by power-supplying circuit 11 with the form of DC/DC transducer now.Dump energy here is to be used by audio amplifier 10, to obtain the high as far as possible maximal audio output voltage of microphone.About different supply voltages (according to the 12V of standard, 24V or 48V), can come design circuit by this way, promptly automatically produce adaptive to the electric energy of different phantom power.This task is to be born by control unit 12 described below then.
Power-supplying circuit 11 comprises 13, one control units 12 of a power supply and a transformer 14 that is connected to control unit 12.Control unit 12 with transformer 14 forms a circuit unit, and wherein dc voltage converts AC voltage to.In this case, transformer is the part of oscillation generating circuit.In general, alternating current also can be produced by the control unit 12 that is independent of transformer.12 of control units comprise a cycle of oscillation that is independent of transformer, produce alternating current.Transformer only plays the function that alternating current is converted to independent output voltage.
In a preferred embodiment, the AC signal has the frequency that scope is 100-130kHz.But also free oscillation of AC signal; This expression is used for the possibility of the simplest embodiment of such circuit.The frequency range that unique important factor is the AC signal must be outside audio range, and not produce any interference to sound signal, this interference can not be eliminated by simple filtering.On the other hand, frequency should be too not high yet, because otherwise, the efficient of circuit reduces, and may have the transmission interference.
Utilize another advantage of the frequency of 100-130kHz to be, the recurrent pulse of the control electronic device 39 that provides in the microphone also can be provided this frequency.As a result, the interference signal that digital technology produces is minimized, and is to produce between the frequency of oscillation of time digit period and DC/DC transducer because there is not the product of additional mixing.
The AC signal that produces is applied to transformer 14.As the result of separate winding independent on transformer, formed the current circuit 15,16,17 that separates, to supply with independent energy consumption parts.This decoupling makes, with as far as possible little power loss, gives the consumable part that needs high voltage and low current simultaneously, and the consumable part power supply that needs high current drain and low- voltage.Diode 18,19,20 in independent current supply circuit 15,16,17 is represented a rectifier circuit that the AC voltage transitions is become dc voltage with capacitor 21,22,23.Certainly, the more complicated and more high efficiency rectifier from the present art can provide in independent current supply circuit.Current supply circuit 16 is used to offer microphone capsule 9 with polarizing voltage, and this is to be applied to microphone capsule 9 by resistance 8.
Certainly the invention is not restricted to Electret Condencer Microphone, because the microphone of any kind of, especially dynamic microphones can be connected to phantom power.Independent power receiver is to be powered with the same manner shown in Fig. 1 and 2 by phantom power unit.But under the situation of dynamic microphones, polarizing voltage is optional, does not therefore need current supply circuit 16.
Guaranteed the absorption of constant source electric current in the use of the constant0current generator 13 of the input of DC/DC transducer.Compare with phantom power unit 31, constant0current generator 13 similarly is a constant current sink, a constant0current generator of its expression power-supplying circuit 11.Constant0current generator 13 with high as far as possible ohm level in other effect, simplified the filtering of the switching fluctuation that produces in the DC/AC transfer process, thereby it has prevented the stack of the interference on sound signal simultaneously.The electronic building brick of the type is known for those skilled in the art of the state of the art of being familiar with this area.Examples of circuits from the constant0current generator of the present art is shown in Fig. 3 and 4.Fig. 3 represents to have " transistor LED " constant0current generator of bipolar transistor.About this current feedback circuit, LED is operated on the sense of current.As a result, a constant voltage imposes on LED, and such voltage also is applied on transistorized base emitter diode with emitter resistance connected in series.Therefore, the electric current that is brought by this current feedback circuit is I=(U
LED-U
Bc)/Re, wherein U
IEDBe pressure drop at LED, U
BcBe base-emitter voltage, Re is an emitter resistance.
Circuit among Fig. 4 comprises a constant0current generator, and it has the degenerated transistors 28,29 of two counter coupled, and the integrated constant0current generator 30 of another one.This circuit is preferred, because from constant current and higher initial resistance aspect consideration, this circuit has better characteristic, thereby is preferred.Current feedback circuit 30 is at initial resistance R
CVoltage drop of last generation, this pressure drop equals the voltage drop U on the emitter resistance Re of transistor 28
RCHere the electric current of constant0current generator is I=U
Rc/ Re.Transistor 29 forms a counter coupled degeneration system with transistor 28, to guarantee the identical voltage drop at resistance R c and Re.As a result, the electric current I of current feedback circuit also keeps constant.Therefore the electric current of current feedback circuit 30 is the constant current 1/100 that finally flow into DC/DC transducer 11.
Certainly, also can provide the constant0current generator of other type, for example, have a current feedback circuit of rp-op amp, Howland current feedback circuit or the like.
The supply power voltage that is used for audio amplifier 10 that is produced by power-supplying circuit 11 is not conditioned in a preferred embodiment.In the current supply circuit 16 of microphone capsule 9, a regulating circuit 47,48 is provided between diode 18 and resistance 8, comprise a digital regulation loop 47 and an analog regulation loop 48, be provided for the polarizing voltage that is applied to microphone capsule 9.Fig. 6 represents the regulating circuit 47,48 of a so preferred remote-controllable with Fig. 7.The required control signal of the adjusting of polarizing voltage can be transmitted by in two cable conductors 1 and 2 at least one.The detailed structure and the method for operation of such regulating circuit 47,48 are described hereinafter.If electric current that provides and voltage limit are not in the already provided restriction of digital circuit part, in remaining current supply circuit, also can provide regulating circuit.In the preferred embodiment of Fig. 1 and 2, in the current supply circuit 15 of audio amplifier 10, do not provide regulating circuit.As a result, whole electric power (be not to use at other circuit part, as processor, control electronic device 39, the polarizing voltage of microphone capsule 9, A/D or D/ A converter 44,46, light-emitting diode display 25) can be used for audio amplifier 10.As a result, high maximal audio output voltage can be saved in the design at the electric current of audio amplifier 10 and obtain, to obtain a high maximal audio output voltage.In principle, the supply power voltage of consequent audio amplifier 10 also can surpass the voltage that phantom power realizes.Because the How It Works of power-supplying circuit 11 also may produce the very simply supply power voltage of positive and negative for audio amplifier 10.As a result, audio amplifier 10 also can utilize ground connection as rest potential.The feed voltage of audio amplifier (10) therefore can be about the ground connection symmetry.
In a further advantageous embodiment, the DC/DC transducer 11 of the above-mentioned type is with about 82% efficient work.Because, even at the best of times, power loss is also arranged at the DC/DC transducer, so if possible, consumers connected in series is favourable to the DC/DC transducer.As the result who utilizes constant0current generator 13, may easily connect consumers with constant-current consumption, for example logic power 24, think be connected to serially DC/DC transducer 11 as control electronic device 39, or light-emitting diode display 25, A/D or D/ A converter 44,46 etc. are realized a fixedly direct current.
The corresponding embodiment of power-supplying circuit 11 is illustrated among Fig. 2.Compared to Figure 1, difference is that to have only polarizing voltage and the voltage that is used for audio amplifier 10 be to produce by the DC/DC transducer.Other consumers is used to control the logic power 24 of the fixing predetermined direct current of electronic device 39 or light-emitting diode display 25 as towering acquisition, is connected in series to the DC/DC transducer.The DC/DC transducer 11 connected in series of digital power serves as active load resistance, wherein the electric weight that uses in this resistance does not convert heat energy to, but converts the power supply that the polarizing voltage on audio amplifier 10 and the microphone capsule 9 can be used to sizable ratio.
As shown in Figure 2, with the logic power 24 of realizing reference voltage or other digital electron device, provide a Zener diode 27, it is particularly well suited to stablize this voltage.By this diode 27, do not consumed but any electric current of being transmitted by constant0current generator 13 is released to the earth.In principle, can use any other constant0current generator or shunt regulator, substitute Zener diode 27.
Delivered power is the electric current and the product that is applied to the voltage of power-supplying circuit 11 of constant0current generator 13.In the block diagram of Fig. 1, whole voltage imposes on DC/DC transducer 11, and all voltages are to produce by the DC/DC transducer.In the block diagram of Fig. 2, voltage is divided into a part that is applied to DC/DC transducer 11 and is applied to second part of LED25 and digital power.The DC/DC transducer is represented an effective initial resistance of LED25 or digital power.Because the current drain of digital power is not constant, but electric current I keeps constant by current feedback circuit 13, depends on the operating state of digital electron device and the excess current that exists must be emitted by Zener diode 27.For the power supply of audio amplifier 10, the efficient of the voltage of power P=I * DC/DC transducer * DC/DC transducer is available.For LED and digital electron device, the voltage that obtainable power P=I * digital electron device and LED have.
In order to describe, provide an example: under the state of not controlling, the current drain of audio amplifier 10 approximately is 0.8mA, and the current drain of digital electron device approximately is 4.2mA.It approximately is the constant current of 4.7mA that current feedback circuit 13 transmits.Like this under these specified conditions, the voltage that makes digital electron device is by the DC/DC transducer, will be more favourable but use of DC/DC transducer connected in series.Even, in other research, can find, about energy more advantageously,, guide all required voltages by the DC/DC transducer as shown in the block diagram of Fig. 1.
The conversion of the supply voltage of audio amplifier 10 in this case can cause the maximum available power of amplifier: P=4.7mA * 18V * 0.82=69mW.Voltage at audio amplifier 10 is U=P/I=69mW/0.8mA=55V like this.This voltage is to be much higher than the 24V voltage that phantom power unit 31 is transmitted in the power adaptation procedure.But owing to also produce polarizing voltage on the film of carbon capsule 9, the supply power voltage value of the actual audio amplifier 10 that obtains is a little less than this value, but still is much higher than the 24V voltage that can use when not having the DC/DC transducer.
Fig. 5 represents to be connected to the microphone 54 of a transmitter or a remote control unit 55.The Long-distance Control of important microphone parameters here is directly to pass through audio frequency cable, promptly takes place by circuit 1,2.Control unit 55 or is configured in its front preferably on frequency mixer.Microcontroller 35 control frequency modulators 36 with parameter control input end 34, its input have two cable conductors 1,2 of the FM signal of same level to audio frequency cable.FM signal is suppressed in input difference amplifier 42 as common-mode signal then.Simultaneously, the supply power voltage of phantom power unit 31 is provided to two cable conductors 1,2 by feed resistance 32,33.In a preferred embodiment, FM signal is provided for unique lead of audio frequency cable, promptly is not used in the lead 2 of sound signal.
In a preferred embodiment, FM signal is to be produced by FSK (frequency shift keying) or CPFSK (continuous phase FSK).Two kinds of modulation are methods known in the digital data transfer technology.In principle, also may utilize ASK (amplitude shift keying) or PSK (phase shift keying) modulation.But ASK more may be interfered, and the PSK modulation sees it is to be difficult to carry out from the viewpoint of circuit engineering.Compare with the application of known said method, under the situation about using in microphone, key factor is that modulation signal must separate from an analog signal, sound signal.Even a FM signal feed-in is not intended for use the lead 2 of sound signal, the capacitive coupling between two leads 1,2 of audio frequency cable causes the interference of sound signal.Capacitive coupling depends on the structure and the length of audio frequency cable.Therefore, although control signal is known, it is difficult filtering interference.
In microphone, fm voltage is by filter 37, separate from sound signal as a band pass filter, the control information that is included in wherein is by control electronic device 39, estimates as a microcontroller or a CPLD (complex programmable logic equipment).Cable conductor 2 is to eliminate with the coupling between greatly by electric capacity 43.It is front as a comparator 38 of voltage comparator that control electronic device 39 is connected to function.For example, the order of output by control electronic device 39 has arrived the power-supplying circuit 11 as seeing in Fig. 1 and 2, audio amplifier 10, and processor is controlled electronic device 39, A/D or D/ A converter 44,46 or the like.
At the frequency modulation of two audio lines 1,2 is to carry out in remote control unit 55, remote control unit 55 preferably be positioned at mixture table near.In remote control unit 55, on the one hand, the rate of carrying must be to apply on the direction of microphone 54, and on the other hand, on the direction of mixture table, all frequency modulation must be suppressed.Only the sound signal from microphone 54 must be transmitted.Simpler for the inhibition that makes frequency modulation, modulation is to carry out on both at the audio line 1,2 with same level.In remote control unit 55, result, FM signal show as a common-mode signal of input difference amplifier 42, thereby are suitably suppressed as mode signal commonly used.In second modification of Long-distance Control, frequency modulation only occurs in the circuit that does not transmit sound signal, and promptly circuit 2.On the direction of mixture table, in this modification, FM signal can be eliminated by the filtering of low pass filter 41.The phantom power unit 31 that comprises feed resistance 32,33 and differential amplifier 42 and low pass filter there is no need to be integrated in the remote control unit as shown in Figure 5.For example, they also can provide in mixture table.
54 the transmission course, arrived control electronic device 39 for guaranteeing control signal reality from remote control unit 55 to microphone in control signal, latter's responsive control signal sends a data acknowledge message for remote control unit 55.Data-acknowledge message also can be a FM signal.The data-acknowledge message that is used for remote control function is not indispensable; But this is the reliability that cost has increased system with other electronic device.
Above-mentioned long-range control method is not limited to Electret Condencer Microphone certainly, because the similar microphone of any kind of can be operated by phantom power especially at the single power receiver of dynamic microphones.
Can be connected to the phantom power of any standard according to microphone of the present invention, and not influence microphone function.If phantom power comprises an equipment that is used for Long-distance Control, then microphone is remote controlled.Under what its situation in office, microphone can be operated by the switch that is directly installed on the microphone.
Fig. 6 represents that according to Electret Condencer Microphone of the present invention wherein the adjusting of polarizing voltage is to be undertaken by two-stage regulating and controlling loop.Here, second digit regulating loop 47 is on internal simulation regulating loop 48.As a result, on microphone capsule 9, can produce a polarizing voltage that be suitable for regulating, that avoid disturbing.
