What are the key features of KSSG1708?

  • Ultra-compact 15 mm diameter, 5 mm depth form factor fits tight PCB enclosure cutouts
  • 8 Ω impedance and 0.2 W power rating compatible with standard microcontroller GPIO audio drivers
  • Miniature full-range speaker suitable for alert tones from 500 Hz to 10 kHz audio band

What is KSSG1708 used for?

The KSSG1708 is used in consumer electronics, IoT devices, and industrial control panels where a small audible indicator or alert tone speaker is needed within a constrained enclosure. Its 15 mm diameter fits standard PCB-mounted speaker cutouts in handheld devices, smart home sensors, and wearable prototypes. The 8 Ω impedance matches common audio driver ICs and transistor output stages directly driven by 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller circuits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What impedance and power rating does the KSSG1708 speaker have for direct microcontroller drive?

The KSSG1708 has an 8 Ω impedance and a 0.2 W power rating, allowing direct drive from a transistor or small audio amplifier IC on a 3.3 V or 5 V supply without exceeding the speaker's thermal limits in typical alert-tone duty cycles.

How does the 15 mm diameter of the KSSG1708 fit into a compact IoT device enclosure?

At 15 mm diameter and only 5 mm depth, the KSSG1708 fits into standard 16 mm panel cutouts or PCB-mount speaker holders, occupying less than 1.2 cm² of board or enclosure area, making it feasible even in credit-card-sized IoT modules.

For an industrial alarm panel, what frequency range does the KSSG1708 cover to produce audible warning tones?

Miniature speakers of this class typically cover 500 Hz to 10 kHz at useful sound pressure levels, with the KSSG1708 efficiently reproducing 1 kHz to 4 kHz alert tones—the most audible range for human warning signals—at 0.2 W input power.

Is the KSSG1708 a cost-effective alternative to piezo buzzers for multi-tone alert applications?

Yes, unlike single-frequency piezo buzzers locked to one resonance tone, the KSSG1708's 8 Ω moving-coil design reproduces multiple programmed alert tones across 500 Hz to 10 kHz, giving designers greater audio flexibility for only a marginally higher BOM cost at approximately 0.2 W per tone.
