Abstract

A microphone assembly includes an acoustic transducer having a back plate and a diaphragm, such that a surface of the back plate includes a plurality of holes. At least a portion of the plurality of holes are arranged in a non-uniform pattern. The non-uniform pattern includes holes of varying sizes spaced apart from neighboring holes by varying distances. The microphone assembly further includes an audio signal electrical circuit configured to receive an acoustic signal from the acoustic transducer.
