  • (Photo: Business Wire)
    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.
