– Its function is to capture sound (which consists of variations in air pressure) and transform it into a corresponding electrical voltage or current signal.
– Different types of microphones use different principles (e.g., electromagnetic induction in dynamic microphones, capacitance change in condenser microphones) to achieve this conversion.
– The electrical signal produced by a microphone can then be amplified, recorded, or transmitted.
