Compact low-profile micro-speakers target portable applications

CUI has announced a new line of compact, low-profile micro-speakers housed in packages as small as 13mm x 13mm. The CDS series, with profile depths as low as 3mm, offers a variety of power ratings from 0.3W to 6W and come with impedance of 4ohm or 8ohm. Available in square frame, rectangular frame or oval frame packages, the micro-speaker series provides a number of mounting styles depending on the user’s need, including wire leads, solder pads / eyelets and spring terminals. Two surface-mount versions are also available for use in designs requiring reflow solder assembly for high-volume production. Sound pressure levels range from 86db up to 102db at 0.1 metres. All models are RoHS compliant. With its numerous performance and size configurations, the CDS series is able to satisfy a wide range of application requirements. Typical applications include consumer electronics, industrial automation, portable and stationary medical equipment, safety and security, and more.
