Abstract
Systems and methods are presented for power supply noise cancellation in a microphone package. A first node on a MEMS microphone package is coupled to an inverted voltage signal of a power supply output. A summing node is connected to both the first node and a second node. The second node is coupled to a non-inverted voltage signal of the power supply output. Because the parasitic capacitance of the MEMS microphone package is substantially equivalent relative to both the first node and the second node, the summing node outputs a noise-reduced summed voltage signal. An adjustable trim module is coupled to the first node and configured to adjust a reduction of a power supply noise in the summed voltage signal from the summing node.
