Chinese As the adoption of TinyML and edge AI continues to expand into consumer electronics, industrial monitoring, and healthcare, ultra-low-power audio sensing becomes a critical enabler. At Wuxi Silicon Source Technology Co., Ltd. (SISTC), we specialize in designing and manufacturing high-performance MEMS microphones and integrated audio solutions that meet the stringent power and performance demands of next-generation edge devices.
MEMS Microphones for Low-Power AI/ML Applications
Modern microcontrollers (MCUs) with integrated AI acceleration are now capable of running machine learning models for tasks like wake-word detection, predictive maintenance, and biometric monitoring. However, the total system power budget remains constrained—especially in wearable, battery-operated, or always-on devices.
This is where SISTC’s low-power MEMS microphones shine.
Key Features of SISTC’s Low-Power MEMS Microphones:
- Ultra-low current consumption (as low as 60 µA in active mode)
- High Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) for improved accuracy in ML inference
- Digital PDM output for direct MCU/DSP interface, minimizing power-hungry analog stages
- Wide dynamic range, supporting both near-field voice and far-field ambient detection
- Compact form factor ideal for space-constrained IoT and wearable designs

Optimized for TinyML and Edge AI
When paired with low-power MCUs—such as Silicon Labs’ EFM32 or ARM Cortex-M-based chips—our microphones allow developers to build always-on audio sensing with minimal energy drain. These systems support frameworks like TensorFlow Lite for Microcontrollers (TFLM) and CMSIS-NN, enabling local inference for:
- Wake-word detection
- Audio event classification (e.g., glass breaking, cough detection)
- Environmental monitoring
- Human presence awareness through acoustic cues
Together with quantized ML models and inference accelerators, SISTC microphones become a reliable audio front-end in TinyML pipelines.
Enabling Real-Time Decisions in Power-Constrained Environments
Whether it’s a wearable health monitor that listens for breathing irregularities or a predictive maintenance node capturing acoustic signatures in a factory, power efficiency is non-negotiable.
SISTC’s MEMS microphones help you:
- Extend device battery life without sacrificing audio accuracy
- Reduce the need for frequent wake-up cycles
- Maintain audio capture fidelity in always-on systems
- Enable local decision-making to reduce cloud dependency and latency
