Abstract

This disclosure provides methods, systems, and apparatuses, for a microphone circuit. In particular, the circuit includes transducer that can sense pressure changes and generate an electrical signal having frequency components in a first frequency range and in a second frequency range higher than the first frequency range. The circuit includes a feedback circuitry that can attenuate frequency components in the first frequency range in the electrical signal and, from it, generate an audio signal. A feedback path circuit includes a low pass filter having a cut-off frequency within the first frequency range, and filters the audio signal to generate a low pass filter signal that includes frequency components in the first frequency range. The low pass filter signal can be used to generate a low frequency pressure signal that corresponds to low frequency pressure changes sensed by the transducer.
