Abstract:
This application relates to transducer apparatus ( 300, 400 ), especially for MEMS capacitive transducers. The apparatus has a voltage bias generator ( 102 ) for receiving a supply voltage (V DD ) and generating a bias voltage (V B ) for biasing a capacitive transducer ( 101 ). A voltage supply path extends between a supply voltage input terminal ( 309 a ) and the voltage bias generator ( 102 ). A programmable trim circuit ( 207 ), in use, controls the bias voltage generated by the voltage bias generator. A first filter ( 301 ) is configured to applying filtering to the voltage supply path. A programming contact pad ( 308 ) is configured to form an external contact of the transducer apparatus when packaged and is electrically coupled to the programmable trim circuit via a signal path that does not include the first filter.

Claim (Index 11):
A transducer apparatus as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising an amplifier arrangement for amplifying an input signal from the capacitive transducer and a signal output path between the amplifier arrangement and a signal out terminal, wherein the apparatus comprises a second filter for applying filtering to the signal out path.
