Abstract: To provide an electret capacitor microphone in which change of sensitivity characteristic caused by thermal deformation of an electret layer can be prevented even in the case where a reflow process is carried out. An electret capacitor microphone includes: an electret capacitor portion including a diaphragm, and a back electrode plate disposed opposite to the diaphragm through a spacer; an electrically insulating bush for electrically insulating/supporting an outer circumferential edge portion of the back electrode plate; a metal cover in which the electret capacitor portion and the electrically insulating bush are stored; and a gate spring having a pressing function for elastically pressing the back electrode plate toward the diaphragm to form a predetermined gap between the electrically insulating bush and an inner surface of a rear wall of the metal cover. Consequently, collapse of a spacer-abutting portion of an electret layer is prevented from being caused by thermal expansion.
