ANSI/ASA S1.15-1997 (R2001)

This standard specifies mechanical dimensions and certain electroacoustical characteristics for capacitor (condenser) microphones used as laboratory standards for sound pressure measurements of the highest attainable accuracy.



Vendor Note: This Standard specifies mechanical dimensions and certain electroacoustical characteristics for capacitor (condenser)microphones used as laboratory standards for sound pressure measurements of the highest attainable accuracy. Thespecifications are intended to ensure that primary calibration by the reciprocity method can be readily carried out. This standardestablishes a system to classify laboratory standard microphones into a number of types according to their dimensions andproperties. This American National Standard is comparable to the International Standard IEC 1094-1:1992, MeasurementMicrophones - Part 1: Specifications for Laboratory Standard Microphones.
