Introduction to IEC60601-1-8 Regulations and Medical Product Applications
The purpose of the IEC60601-1-8 standard is to define the safety and performance requirements for audible or visual alarm systems used in medical electrical equipment. This article only uses the sound alarm as the main description. This standard specifies minimum sound pressure limits and duration for sirens. It is required that the alarm volume be heard in a noisy environment, and the alarm time must be long enough to attract the attention of medical personnel to ensure that correct responses and judgments can be made promptly without causing confusion, misjudgment, or disturbing the patient. Suffer. Therefore, if the alarms in medical equipment can comply with this standard, it will be a guarantee for the medical staff and patients in the hospital.

Types of output interfaces of MEMS microphones
The output signal of ECM (Electret Condenser Microphones) is almost all analog, most of which are single-ended. However, in contrast to MEMS Mic, there are two types of output interfaces: "Analog" and "Digital". Analog is also divided "Single-ended" and "Differential" outputs and digital output, which contains "PDM," "I2S," and "TDM" outputs. PDM occupies the most significant proportion.

The study of loudspeaker positions
How can we balance ID appearances and acceptable sound performance? It’s always a critical task for the designer. The FEA (Finite Element Analysis) tool can be used to predict and analyze the influences of sound performance when the ID is initially locked down, and the optimized position of the loudspeaker can be chosen.

The Loudspeaker Developments for Laptop Acoustics
A compact and as thin as possible form factor is the mainstream of designing current laptops. That causes traditional round-shape speakers, which are limited by the diameter (i.e., length and width), to be unable to satisfy state-of-the-art laptops. So, almost all loudspeakers designed for laptops have rectangular shapes to enlarge the vibrating area under a compact and limited space, and the longer, narrower, and thinner dimensions are the direction for future developments.
