Patent ID: 11259125

Abstract:
A MEMS microphone includes a substrate presenting a vibration area, a supporting area surrounding the vibration area and a peripheral area surrounding the supporting area, the substrate defining a cavity formed in the vibration area, a lower back plate being disposed over the substrate to cover the cavity and having a plurality of lower acoustic holes, a diaphragm being disposed over the lower back plate, the diaphragm being spaced apart from the lower back plate and configured to generate a displacement thereof in response to an applied acoustic pressure, an upper back plate being disposed over the diaphragm, the upper back plate being spaced apart from the diaphragm and having a plurality of upper acoustic holes, and an intermediate anchor being in contact with an upper surface of the lower back plate in the supporting area, the intermediate anchor being configured to support the diaphragm to space the diaphragm from the lower back plate, and to provide elasticity for the diaphragm.
