Tiny MEMS speaker-microphone for TWS devices
SonicEdge has launched SonicTwin, the first integrated MEMS speaker-microphone in a single package for True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earbuds and headphones.
The tiny MEMS speaker-microphone measures just 8- x 4- x 1-mm and combines cutting-edge sound generation and sensing capabilities to set a new benchmark in compact audio innovation.
Powered by SonicEdge’s patented modulated ultrasound technology, SonicTwin eliminates traditional mechanical vibrations, enabling the seamless integration of speakers and sensors. This breakthrough design delivers exceptional high Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) in an ultra-compact form factor, revolutionizing possibilities for TWS devices and wearables.
Engineering samples of the SonicTwin MEMS speaker-microphone will become available in 2025 and hit consumer audio products in 2026.
“SonicTwin is a game-changer,” said Moti Margalit, CEO and founder of SonicEdge. “It unlocks immersive, integrated audio solutions and sets a new standard for wearables and beyond. Its ultra-compact size enables true in-ear canal integration, providing unmatched performance, comfort, and active noise cancellation (ANC) for TWS earbuds and headphones. With the SonicTwin MEMS speaker-microphone, manufacturers can design smaller devices or allocate more space for larger batteries, offering unprecedented freedom in product design.”
Traditional noise cancelation systems (ANC) performance is limited by speaker microphone placement. “SonicTwin reduces latency and enables better ANC,” said Ari Mizrachi, CTO and co-founder of SonicEdge. “Our modulated ultrasound technology replaces traditional voice coils, resulting in higher efficiency, superior sound quality, and co-packaged sensors — all in a size once thought impossible.”
By reducing the number of components required, SonicTwin minimizes complexity on the production line, accelerating time-to-market. As part of SonicEdge’s MEMS-based product portfolio, SonicTwin paves the way for next-generation integrated speaker-sensor systems that can power applications in environmental awareness, health monitoring, and beyond.
