xMEMS Labs, the leader in piezoMEMS audio innovation and creators of the world’s first all-silicon micro speakers, today announced Sycamore-W, a new addition to the company’s Sycamore near-field MEMS speaker family, engineered for smart watches, fitness bands, and other wrist-worn wearables.

xMEMS Labs, developers of the foremost platform for piezoMEMS innovation and creators of the world’s leading all-silicon micro speakers, today announced xMEMS Lassen, the company’s newest innovation for delivering micro fidelity (µFidelity) audio to mass-market consumer earbuds.

xMEMS Labs, developers of the foremost platform for piezoMEMS innovation and creators of the world’s leading all-silicon micro speakers, today announced that CES 2025 will be the first public demonstrations of its latest MEMS innovations – the xMEMS Sycamore loud speaker and µCooling fan-on-a-chip (January 7-10, Venetian Hotel Suite 29-235).

Underscoring the importance of solid-state micro-speakers to the future of over-the-ear headphone design, MEMS audio and semiconductor pioneer xMEMS Labs and ODM Merry Electronics today announced they will demonstrate the new production-ready premium wireless over-the-ear headphone at CES 2025.

xMEMS Labs, developers of the foremost platform for piezoMEMS innovation and creators of the world’s leading all-silicon micro speakers, today announced its latest industry-changing innovation: the xMEMS XMC-2400 µCoolingTM chip, the first-ever all-silicon, active micro-cooling fan for ultramobile devices and next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) solutions.

xMEMS Labs, pioneers in solid-state, all-silicon micro speakers, today announced a revolutionary breakthrough in sound reproduction, changing the way mass-market, true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds create ultra high-quality, high-resolution sound experiences across all audio frequencies.

xMEMS Labs, pioneers in Solid-State Fidelity, today announced general availability of three revolutionary solutions for immediate integration into next-generation true wireless (TWS) earphones, in-ear-monitors (IEMs), digital hearing aids, and other emerging personal audio electronics, including smart glasses and sleep buds.

xMEMS Labs and Bujeon Electronics today introduced a family of 2-way speaker modules to accelerate design of next generation high-resolution and lossless audio-capable TWS earbuds leveraging xMEMS’ solid-state MEMS microspeaker technology. The modules integrate a thumping, high-performance 9-mm dynamic drive woofer custom-designed by Bujeon, xMEMS’ Cowell tweeter, the world’s smallest monolithic MEMS µspeaker at just 22mm3, and xMEMS’ Aptos MEMS speaker amplifier to create a “drop-in” speaker solution compatible with today’s leading TWS system-on-chips.

xMEMS Labs, the company “Reinventing Sound” with the world’s first monolithic MEMS speakers, today announced the appointment of two key sales leadership roles. First, Jim Wargnier, an accomplished audio technology business and engineering executive, joined today as Vice President, North America and Europe Sales. Next, James (Jeong In) Lee, a seasoned mobile and wireless semiconductor veteran, joined today as Vice President & Korea Country Manager. Both hires will accelerate existing customer momentum in these territories and complement xMEMS’ established channels in Greater China via our partner EDOM Technology Co., LTD.

xMEMS Labs today introduced Cowell, the world’s smallest monolithic MEMS µspeaker. At just 22mm3, 56 milligrams, and with a 3.4mm diameter side-firing package, Cowell delivers an impressive 110dB SPL at 1kHz. Cowell provides up to 15dB of gain above 1kHz for improved speech-in-noise performance and greater vocal and instrumental clarity versus electrodynamic and balanced armature µspeakers. Cowell is the first speaker to use xMEMS’ 2nd generation M2 speaker cell architecture offering improved SPL/mm2 enabling increased loudness in smaller form factors. Cowell engineering samples are available now, with mass production in early Q2 2022.
