An apparatus includes a housing having a printed circuit board having a top surface and a bottom surface. The top surface of the printed circuit board forms an outer surface of the housing. The apparatus further includes a bottom-port microphone sensor mounted on the bottom surface of the printed circuit board. The printed circuit board has a port opening formed therein to provide an acoustic path from outside of the housing to the microphone sensor. A method of detecting ultrasonic signals includes receiving ultrasonic signals within a port opening of a printed circuit board forming part of a surface of a housing, and directing ultrasonic signals to a microphone sensor secured to a printed circuit board through the port of the printed circuit board.

Ultrasonic microphone enclosure

An apparatus includes a housing having a horn with a mouth and a throat. The mouth of the horn is larger in cross section than the throat of the horn. The housing further includes a waveguide providing communication from the throat of the horn. The apparatus further includes a printed circuit board supported by the housing and a microphone sensor. The microphone sensor is mounted to a printed circuit board. The waveguide provides communication from the throat of the horn to the microphone sensor. The apparatus may be configured to include a housing having a waveguide providing communication to an interior of the housing, a printed circuit board supported by the housing within the interior of the housing, and a microphone sensor.

A system enables communication between a first network having a first network protocol and a second network having a second network protocol. At least one of the first and second networks is a storage area network. The system includes first and second data ports for receiving, from the first network, input data and state information respectively. A microsequencer is configured to translate the input data, which is expressed in the first network protocol, into corresponding data expressed in the second network protocol. This translation is performed in part on the basis of the state information.
