A reduced return rate, a secured market position and an improved production process: Learn how a leading brand for TWS earbuds achieved all this with the help of Gore’s venting solutions.

Learn how Gore developed an innovative solution that provides industry-leading particle protection and acoustic performance to help the world’s largest smartphone OEM and MEMS microphone manufacturers solve a critical predicament.

Learn how Gore Technology helped a well-known manufacturer of conference phones prevent particle contamination, reducing their failure rate from unacceptable levels to nearly zero.

Learn how Gore developed a groundbreaking solution that guarantees a high filtration efficiency and acoustic transparency to help China’s largest OEM and their MEMS microphone manufacturers solve a troubling dilemma.

The current methods used during circuit board assembly to protect MEMS microphones can cause performance degradation, significant yield losses and higher manufacturing costs. With GORE MEMS Protective Vent Style 100, industry-leading protection and acoustic performance can be seamlessly installed during circuit board assembly.

Gore launches two breakthrough products- GORE® Acoustic Vent and GORE® Pressure Vent for 10 ATM smartwatches, that enable smartwatch users to dive down to 100 meters without compromising performance or audio quality.

Rigorous testing shows how GORE® MEMS Protective Vents Style 200 reliably prevents particle contamination and pressure build-ups in MEMS microphones, and enables higher manufacturing yields and in-process acoustic testing in high-volume PCB (Printed Circuit Board) assembly operations.

A critical aspect of vent selection begins with defining the level of protection your application, device or housing requires.

IP ratings cannot be “converted” to NEMA ratings, since NEMA requires additional testing not included in IP. However, there are minimum NEMA ratings that will meet or exceed a given IP code.

The current methods used by manufacturers to protect MEMS microphones can cause performance degradation, significant yield losses and higher manufacturing costs. With GORE^® MEMS Protective Vent Style 200, industry-leading protection and acoustic performance can be installed without any special handling during circuit board assembly.

Style 200 can be installed inside the MEMS microphone during the microphone packaging process.
