An electret microphone is a microphone whose diaphragm forms a capacitor (historically-termed a condenser) that incorporates an electret. The electret's permanent electric dipole provides a constant charge Q on the capacitor.
English: A typical electret microphone preamp circuit uses a FET in a common source configuration. The two-terminal electret capsule contains an FET which must be externally powered by supply voltage V +. The resistor sets the gain and output impedance. The audio signal appears at the output, after a DC-blocking capacitor.
The large size and weight of the RE20 requires a strong microphone stand or boom arm, and a very sturdy microphone clip or robust hanging yoke. The supplied mic clip (model number 320) is tightened securely with a knurled knob. An optional shock-mount is available for the RE20 family of microphones: the EV model 309A.
First patent on foil electret microphone by G. M. Sessler et al. (pages 1 to 3) An electret microphone is a type of condenser microphone invented by Gerhard Sessler and Jim West at Bell laboratories in 1962. [24] The externally applied charge used for a conventional condenser microphone is replaced by a permanent charge in an electret material.
The microphone generates its own voltage and needs no power. Devices that use a self-powered microphone: usually a condenser microphone with an internal battery-powered amplifier. Devices that use a plug-in powered microphone: an electret microphone containing an internal FET amplifier. These provide a good quality signal in a very small ...

First patent on foil electret microphone by G. M. Sessler and J. E. West (pages 1 to 3) From 1950 to 1959, Sessler studied physics at Universities of Freiburg , Munich, and Göttingen . He received his diploma in 1957 and his Ph.D. from the University of Göttingen in 1959.
The directionality of the 77-DX is variable. A rotating backshutter on the acoustic labyrinth, controlled by a screwdriver-operated slot at the rear of the microphone, allows the user to vary the microphone's pattern from omnidirectional in the fully closed position, to cardioid, to figure-8 (bidirectional) in the fully open position.
