Working Principle - veswe Sound Sensor
In addition to the VRT-ZS-BZ-&-EX sound sensor, we also offer the wall-mounted sound sensor, outdoor sound sensor dan long-pole sound sensor. When our sound sensors detect noise, the filtering method they use is A-weighted.
What is A-weighting? Sound waves have two characteristics: frequency and sound pressure. Frequency reflects the sharpness of sound and is measured in Hz. Sound pressure level indicates the loudness of sound and is measured in dB. Taking the I2C sound sensor as an example, it can detect noise in the frequency range of 20Hz to 12.5kHz, with a sound pressure level range of 30dB to 130dB. A-weighting is the process of filtering sound frequencies, the frequency range of the A-weighting filter spans from 20Hz to 20kHz. At present, A-weighting is widely used in environmental noise measurement and is a standard feature in many sound level meters. The A-weighting system can be used for measuring all types of environmental noise, such as traffic, railway, and aircraft.
Our ears have varying sensitivity to different sound frequencies, being most sensitive to mid-range frequencies around 500Hz to 6kHz, while less sensitive to low and high frequencies. To simulate the human ear’s sensitivity across frequencies, sound level sensor is equipped with a frequency weighting network that adjusts the electrical signal to match human auditory perception. This process is known as frequency weighting. It emulates the human ear’s response to different frequencies and applies corresponding weighting to the sound signals. A-weighting significantly attenuates low-frequency sounds (below 50Hz) and high-frequency sounds, while maintaining relative stability in the mid-frequency range, closely matching the human hearing response.
FAQs - Sound Sensor
TTL refers to Transistor-Transistor Logic circuits. In TTL signals, logic level 0 corresponds to 0V, and logic level 1 corresponds to either 3.3V or 5V. In communication and serial devices, TTL denotes a voltage level standard used for data transmission. When performing serial communication, signals output directly from microcontrollers are typically at TTL level.
RS485 is a serial communication interface standard. To enable long-distance transmission, it adopts a differential signal method. Our RS485 sound sensor output RS485 signals via a TTL-to-RS485 converter chip. Compared to TTL, RS485 in our sound sensor includes an additional conversion circuit. TTL supports full-duplex communication but has poor anti-interference capability and is not suitable for long-distance transmission. In contrast, RS485 supports half-duplex communication in a query-response mode and offers stronger noise immunity, making it ideal for long-distance applications.
IIC (Inter-Integrated Circuit) is a serial communication protocol used for data exchange between electronic devices. The IIC bus consists of two lines: Serial Data Line (SDA) and Serial Clock Line (SCL). All devices connected to the IIC bus share these two lines for data transmission and synchronization. Both SDA and SCL are bidirectional lines connected to a positive power supply through current sources or pull-up resistors. When the bus is idle, both lines remain at a high logic level.
A-weighting simulates the human ear’s response to sound by significantly attenuating low and mid-frequency electrical signals. Measurements using A-weighting are typically denoted as dB(A).
C-weighting is designed to reflect the frequency characteristics of high-intensity noise, simulating the human ear’s response to high sound pressure levels. It applies less attenuation to low frequencies and offers a relatively flat response across the full frequency spectrum, providing a more uniform treatment of audible frequencies without emphasizing or suppressing lows or highs.
Z-weighting, also known as zero-weighting, provides a flat frequency response over the 20Hz to 20kHz range. It applies no frequency weighting, meaning all frequencies are treated equally during measurement.
B-weighting and D-weighting are now obsolete and no longer in use.
- Frequency Range: The typical required frequency range is 20Hz to 12.5kHz.
- Measurement Range: Using the commonly adopted A-weighting as an example, the measurement range generally spans from 30dBA to 130dBA.
- Frequency Weighting: A-weighting is required; some devices also support C-weighting and Z-weighting.
- Time Weighting: Usually includes F (Fast) and S (Slow); some models may also offer I (Impulse).
- Measurement Accuracy: The measurement error is generally required to be within a certain range, typically within ±0.5dB.
- Self-Noise: Under A-weighting, self-noise is typically ≤25dB; under C-weighting ≤30dB; under Z-weighting ≤35dB.
- Directivity: The device must meet specific free-field response requirements in the reference incident direction, and deviations in measurements under different angles of incidence must remain within the specified limits.
- Environmental Requirements: Normal operating conditions include an ambient temperature range of 0℃ to 40℃, relative humidity from 25% to 90%, and atmospheric pressure from 65kPa to 108kPa.
- Calibration Point: The sound level meter is calibrated using a standard sound pressure level of 94dB or 114dB.
- An electret refers to a dielectric material that possesses a permanent electric dipole moment or is capable of storing electric charge over a long period, similar to how a permanent magnet retains magnetism. It converts sound signals into electrical signals by utilizing changes in surface charge on the material. When sound waves strike the diaphragm of an electret microphone, the distance between the diaphragm and the electret changes, causing a variation in capacitance. This change alters the charge distribution and generates an electrical signal corresponding to the sound input.
Sound pressure is the variation in atmospheric pressure caused by the disturbance of sound waves; it represents the pressure change induced by sound. The sound pressure level refers to the sound pressure exerted on a unit area.
Sound pressure sensitivity, also known as sound pressure response, is defined as the ratio of the open-circuit voltage at the output of the receiving transducer to the actual sound pressure on the receiving surface.
A free field is an acoustic environment where only direct sound is present, with no reflected sound.
The sound sensor generally use 94dB or 114dB as noise calibration reference points.
94dB corresponds to the sound pressure level of many common noise sources. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) recommends 94dB as the standard reference value for sound sources in ISO 3744. Selecting 94dB as the calibration sound pressure level allows the calibrator to cover the measurement range of most sound sensors. The sound emitted by the calibrator at one standard atmosphere pressure in normal temperature air, measured at a distance of 1 meter from the source, is 94dB.
The 114dB calibration signal represents a higher sound pressure level, suitable for more precise measurements. The 114dB calibration is often used in field applications, such as environmental noise monitoring, meeting general industrial and scientific research requirements. Standard sound sources are typically defined as sound emitters with fixed sound pressure levels. Common standard sound sources on the market include 94dB@1kHz and 114dB@1kHz calibrators. The 1kHz frequency is a crucial calibration point.
Sound is generated by the vibration of objects, producing sound waves that propagate through a medium (such as air, solids, or liquids) and can be perceived by the auditory organs of humans or animals. The object initially producing the vibration is called the sound source. Sound propagates as waves—mechanical vibrations transmitted through any medium. Sound waves with frequencies between 20Hz and 20,000Hz are audible to the human ear. Any sound that interferes with people’s rest, study, or work is generally referred to as noise.
