lmpedance
Dual. Microphone rating impedance is 150 ohms (250 ohms ac-
tual) for connection to microphone inputs rated at 19 to 300
ohms and "High" for connection to high-impedance microphone
inputs.
Wired for low impedance as supplied. To change impedance,
see sections on lmpedance Selection and Connections.
Output Level (at 1,000 Hz)
Open Circuit Voltage*
*0 dB = 1 volt per Pascal (1 Pa = 94 dB SPL)
Polarity
Positive pressure on diaphragm produces positive voltage on
pin 2 (with respect to pin 3).
