Case: capsule and grilleA microphone converts sound pressure into an electrical signal. [Evidence-Based Comparison]
Drag to rotate; pinch to zoom. With the view focused: arrow keys rotate, + / − zoom, 1–3 choose a layer, Home resets rotation and zoom. Step advances to the next layer; Reset returns to the case and default view. Layer buttons select a view directly. The page does not move on its own.
Teaching view: A green board at the rear of the capsule carries the terminal connections and a dark electronics block. The microphone signal feeds the electronics used for audio sensing.
Teaching view: The blue and gold discs represent a capacitive microphone example: a flexible diaphragm beside a fixed plate. Sound pressure moves the diaphragm, changing the gap and the capacitance, or ability to store electric charge. With an electrical bias, that change produces a small electrical signal that follows the sound. The discs illustrate this mechanism rather than the construction of every microphone.
Explode separates the conceptual layers; X-ray makes the case translucent. External package dimensions follow the model specification; internal teaching geometry is conceptual, not to scale, and is not manufacturer CAD or a wiring diagram.
