I measured the input impedance of the mic input on a Dell laptop: AC input impedance: 4.3 kOhms (-6dB with 4k3 resistor in series) Mic bias voltage: +3.8V (open circuit) Output current: 809uA (shorted to GND) This suggest that there is a 4k7 pull-up resistor to +3.8V for mic DC bias. It may vary somewhat between different brands and models of course but all soundcard mic inputs that I have seen so far puts out some DC bias for electret microphones. 73 Johan SM6LKM ---- Ken wrote: > Hello all. > Does anyone know the approximate impedance of the mic input jack on a pc > sound card. > > 73. > Ken > M0KHW |
