A gain setting for different microphone levels is given in the Appendix on page 15. The calculations 
are relatively simple.  With the Input Voltage (RMS) = 10

(dBV/20) 

and further conversion to: Volts Peak 

to Peak = 2.828 * RMS.  To save time you can use the chart by taking, for instance, a Electret 
microphone giving about -44dBV and a 1901 gain setting of 24dB should create a signal of -20dBV 
(by simple addition), which should give a signal of about 282mV P-P maximum. 
 

Using the AGC action 
 

As previously mentioned, the module has an AGC system that may be used.  This requires all the 
Gain setting links to be removed and a link to be placed over the AGC pads.   
The AGC looks for voice patterns and then sets the appropriate gain setting at that specific time to 
get almost maximum audio level output.  The DSP then holds the level until it gets the next speech 
pattern and sets the gain to get the maximum level this point.  As such the AGC is stepped, rather 
than a slow ramp up and ramp down with audio level.  It does however behave well under many 
audio and noise conditions. 
 

RFI 
 

We’ve already mentioned the use of filtering or use of separate supplies to bias /power the 

microphones and while the 900 module has in-built filtering to reduce any noise and rf ingress, any 
input signals should be treated with further filtering both on the signal and bias lines.
