Gain staging
USB-C electret, 24-bit/96 kHz. Elgato prints sensitivity in dBFS, which is not stored as dBV/Pa. Headphone power is 75 mW at 16 Ω on the mic itself.
What the datasheet actually says
Quoted verbatim from the manufacturer’s own page, with the date we checked it. We state what is printed, not what anyone intended by it.
Named like something else
«Sensitivity: -25dBFS (min gain); 15dBFS (max gain)»
Those figures are digital full-scale levels, not dBV/Pa, so no analog sensitivity is stored.
