Abstract:
In a capacitively operating MEMS microphone, by varying the BIAS voltage, the pull-in point is determined and the present pull-in voltage and the corresponding pull-in capacitance between membrane and back electrode are ascertained. From the deviation of the present pull-in point from the values of a first pull-in point, these values being determined after an end test and stored in an internal memory of the MEMS microphone, and the likewise stored values at a first operating point a recalibrated BIAS voltage is determined and set in order thereby to bring the sensitivity closer again to that at the original first operating point.

Claim (Index 6):
The method according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the MEMS microphone carries out a recalibration\n automatically according to specific rules depending on the acoustic or thermal stress loading of the MEMS microphone, or \n automatically when a specific time interval has elapsed, or \n if the recalibration is initiated manually by a user, or \n after every restart of the device in which the microphone is installed.
