CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

A block diagram of the VP88 is shown in Figure 5.
SPECIFICATIONS
Type
Single-point stereo (MS configuration) condenser
Frequency Response (See Figures 6 and 7)
40 to 20,000 Hz
Polar Pattern (See Figures 8 and 9)
Mid Cartridge: Cardioid (unidirectional)
Side Cartridge: Bidirectional
Output Impedance
Rated at 150 (100 Ω actual). Recommended minimum load im-
pedance: 800 Ω (may be used with loads as low as 150 Ω with
reduced clipping level)
Sensitivity (1 kHz, MS mode)
Open Circuit Voltage: –66 dB (0.5 mV) Mid. (Side level 1.6 dB
higher than Mid level) (0 dB=1 V/Pa)
Side Level (Stereo mode; relative to Mid level)
Low: –6.0 dB; Medium: –1.9 dB; High: +1.6 dB
Clipping Level (1 kHz)
800 Ω Load (less than 1% THD)
–12 dBV (0.25 V)(Mid output, 1% THD)
–10 dBV (0.30 V)(Side output, 1% THD)
150 Ω Load (less than 3% THD)
–25 dBV (0.06 V)(Mid output)
–19 dBV (0.11 V)(Side output)
Maximum SPL
800 Ω Load: 129 dB
150 Ω Load: 119 dB
Hum Pickup
–4 dB equivalent SPL in 1 millioersted field (60 Hz)
Self Noise (Mid, Side, Left and Right outputs; equivalent sound
pressure levels)
24 dB typical, A-weighted
28 dB typical, weighted per DIN 45405
Dynamic Range
105 dB (maximum SPL to A-weighted noise level)
Signal–to–Noise Ratio*
70 dB (IEC 651) at 94 dB SPL
*S/N ratio: difference between microphone output at 94 dB SPL and microphone self–noise A–
weighted.

Overvoltage Protection
Maximum External Voltage applied to Pins 2 through 5 with re-
spect to Pin 1: 75 Vdc
Polarity
Positive pressure applied from any direction to the Mid cartridge or
from the left to the Side cartridge in the MS mode, or applied from
the front in the Stereo mode produces positive voltage on pin 2 rel-
ative to pin 3 (Mid/Left) and pin 4 relative to pin 5 (Side/Right).
Power
Phantom
Supply Voltage: 9 to 52 Vdc
Current Drain: 1.3 mA/output; 2.6 mA total
Battery
Type: 6 V cylindrical*
Life: 70 hours**
Current Drain: 2.4 mA total
*Silver oxide (NEDA 1406SOP), lithium (NEDA 5005L), alkaline (NEDA 1414A)
**Fresh silver oxide or lithium battery; 40 hours with alkaline
Environmental Conditions
