  • Patent number: 11863934
    Abstract: The present invention provides a MEMS microphone, including a substrate and a capacitive structure. The capacitive structure includes a back plate and a vibration diaphragm. The vibration diaphragm includes a main body and a plurality of supporting structures for supporting the main body. Each supporting structure includes a supporting beam and two spring structures. Each spring structure includes at least two beam arms extending along the extension direction of the peripheral edge of the main body, and the beam arm closest to the main body is spaced apart from the main body. The sensitivity of the MEMS microphone in the present invention is higher.

  • Patent number: 11310606
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an MEMS microphone including a base having a rear cavity and a capacitor system disposed on the base. The capacitor system includes a rear plate and a diaphragm that are spaced relatively apart to form an acoustic cavity. A piezoelectric diaphragm is attached to a side of the diaphragm, the side being away from the acoustic cavity. The piezoelectric diaphragm, under the deformation effect of the diaphragm, deforms to generate and output charges. Therefore, the MEMS microphone can output two groups of electrical signals, one group of electrical signals output by the capacitor system and one group of electrical signals output by the piezoelectric diaphragm, thereby sensitivity of the microphone is improved.
