Asahi Kasei Microdevices Has Developed a Tiny Analog-to-Digital Converter for Smart Security Sensors That Features Integrated Glass-Break Detection for Only 34 μA
Asahi Kasei Microdevices Corporation (AKM), a subsidiary of the Asahi Kasei Group, has developed the AK5707, an ultra-low-power monaural 16-bit A/D converter (ADC) equipped with the integrated Acoustic Activity Analyzer (AAA), an analog acoustic event detector (AED).

Operating at only 34µA, the AK5707’s AAA block listens for acoustic events fitting user-customizable profiles and, upon detection, activates the device’s built-in ADC, initiating recording to the integrated audio buffer. - The AK5707’s Acoustic Activity Analyzer block, which consumes only 34µA while listening for qualifying audio events, is far more capable than typical loudness-based detection.
