IEEE-library form of microphone input: a microphone indication identifies an acoustic-input transducer in a communications circuit.

## In plain English

### What does ANSI/IEEE Microphone input form mean?

This reference locates microphone input in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented annunciations family. A microphone indication identifies an acoustic-input device that turns a measured quantity into a signal in a communications circuit. The public library uses HAN1B9 for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.

### A simple example

Use the surrounding circuit labels and the project legend to identify the intended operating condition and connection. Carry the same device reference into the schedule or equipment document so the symbol can be reconciled with its real terminals, function and operating limits.

### What the drawings help you do

Reference the signal input, supply or bias arrangement where relevant. A microphone converts sound into a signal; a loudspeaker performs the opposite role. Reference the signal input, supply or bias arrangement where relevant. A microphone converts sound into a signal; a loudspeaker performs the opposite role. The linked functional counterpart explains the same operating role in its own drawing context; agreement of every detailed convention mark is not asserted.

### This particular reference

IEEE-library form of microphone input: a microphone indication identifies an acoustic-input device that turns a measured quantity into a signal in a communications circuit. A microphone converts sound into a signal; a loudspeaker performs the opposite role.

### Terms

- Terminal: An identified point where a conductor connects.
- Signal: Electrical information passed between devices, rather than necessarily the main power supply.
- Rating: A value stating the conditions for which equipment is specified.

## Information to show or reference

- Identify the associated device, circuit or diagram boundary.
- Reference the signal input, supply or bias arrangement where relevant.
- Cross-reference the equipment data, terminal mapping or operating-state legend needed to interpret the form.

## Important distinction

A microphone converts sound into a signal; a loudspeaker performs the opposite role.
