Abstract: A MEMS microphone includes a substrate having a cavity, a back plate disposed over the substrate, a diaphragm being disposed between the substrate and the back plate and being spaced apart from the substrate and the back plate and at least one anti-buckling portion provided between the substrate and the diaphragm.
