Knowles Electronics supports hearing aid manufacturers and audiologists as they work together to improve the lives of people with hearing loss.

Our microcapacitor and balanced armature technology platforms enable OEMs to design and manufacture smaller, better hearing aids for their end customers. Additionally, our microelectromechanical controllers for ultra-small component designs enable the next generation of concealed, custom-molded hearing aid designs.

Knowles Acoustics partners with leading emerging consumer electronics brands. In 2001, the group leveraged our CMOS/MEMS technology platform to bring the world's first silicon microphone to market. This revolutionary solution enables major mobile phone brands to develop the latest wave of miniaturized, high-density mobile phones and smartphones.

For the consumer electronics market, we are leveraging the combined strengths of our microcapacitor, balanced armature and CMOS/MEMS technology platforms to build third- and fourth-generation solutions for digital cameras, PDAs, high-performance headphones and other applications.

With more than 80 years of experience in the acoustics industry, Knowles Sound Solutions is a leading global manufacturer of dynamic speakers and dynamic receivers for mobile phones and other consumer electronics. We have been a technology leader in these product categories for more than a decade, providing smaller, thinner, high-performance acoustic components for mobile phones.
