Patented technology does away with moving coils to achieve richer sound
Creative's new true wireless earbuds will use xMEMS's solid-state silicon tech and that is huge – or more importantly, tiny.
We don't typically cover audio components at the chip level, but this radical new technology from a company called xMEMS is just too interesting to ignore.
Lower power consumption, comfort and "precise, higher fidelity, high-res audio" are among their benefits
The semiconductor story is the story of constant replacement. Early transistors increasingly replaced vacuum tubes. Integrated circuits (ICs) replaced transistors. Our large-screen, flat-panel displays and televisions, which replaced cathode ray tubes, are giant-sized, thin-film semiconductors. Semiconductor-based solid-state drives are currently replacing rotating hard-disk storage in computers and servers. Even dynamic and electret microphones have started…
