Abstract
A microphone assembly can include a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) form-factor adapter housing including an interface opening and an adapter housing acoustic port and a MEMS microphone disposed at least partially within the MEMS form-factor adapter housing. The MEMS microphone can include a MEMS microphone housing comprising a MEMS microphone acoustic port; a plurality of electrical interface contacts physically accessible through the interface opening of the MEMS form-factor adapter housing; a MEMS motor disposed in the MEMS microphone housing; and an integrated circuit disposed in the MEMS microphone housing and electrically coupled to the MEMS motor and to the plurality of electrical interface contacts. The MEMS form-factor adapter housing can change a form-factor of the MEMS microphone housing.
