I'm just curious, but what do you do after detecting a bat?
Honestly, I didn't have a plan for post-bat detection. Just thought it would be a fun project to try to hear what my cat hears.I'm just curious, but what do you do after detecting a bat?
Hi Audioguru.I disagree with the Texas Instruments electret mic preamp article:
1) 2V mic operating voltage. Then it distorts with loud sounds.
2) Feeding all the power supply noise directly to the mic biasing resistor with no filtering.
From a 9V filtered battery, I use a series 1k filtered resistor to feed a series 10k current-limiting resistor powering the mic.
If the mic draws its max of 0.5mA then the 11k worth of series resistors use 5.5V and the mic gets 3.5V.
If the mic draws 0.35mA then the resistors use 3.85V and the mic gets 5.15V.
