INMP441 I2S Mic

The INMP441 I2S Mic is a board I/O module in the LabWired part catalog. Its catalog type is inmp441. It connects to the MCU over SPI. The catalog gives a supply range of 1.62–3.63 V. It has 6 pins. A registered peripheral model runs in the engine: the firmware talks to it over the real bus and gets device-accurate responses.

From the catalog: Drives only the half of the I2S frame its L/R pin selects; the other half reads zero because SD tri-states and the 100k pulldown wins. Samples are a deterministic synthetic tone, stated as such in the artifact — a simulator has no sound.

How to simulate the INMP441 I2S Mic in LabWired

  1. Open the Playground at app.labwired.com and place an MCU board.
  2. Add the INMP441 I2S Mic (catalog type inmp441).
  3. Connect VDD and GND to the supply and ground of the board. Use a supply inside the catalog range of 1.62–3.63 V.
  4. Connect SCK, WS, SD and L/R to free GPIO pins.
  5. Run the firmware. It selects the part and moves bytes over the simulated SPI bus as on hardware.
