  • Top port microphone apparatus
    Patent number: 9781505
    Abstract: A microphone includes a microphone base that has a first surface and a second surface. The microphone also includes a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) device coupled to the first surface of the microphone base. The microphone also includes a cover coupled to the first surface of the microphone base, such that the cover divides the first surface into a covered portion where the cover encloses the MEMS device, and a non-covered portion extending away from the cover. The microphone also includes one or more pads on the uncovered portion of the first surface of the base. The microphone also includes a port extending through the base from the first surface to the second surface.

  • Acoustic Assembly and Method of Manufacturing The Same
    Publication number: 20150117681
    Abstract: A microelectromechanical system (MEMS) microphone includes a base having a port extending there through. A MEMS die is coupled to the base, and the MEMS die includes a diaphragm and a back plate. An application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) is coupled to the base and the MEMS die. A cover is coupled to the base, and the cover includes customer pads. The customer pads on the cover are connected electrically to the ASIC, and the cover is arranged to form an air tight seal with the base and enclose the MEMS die and the ASIC. The microphone is connected to a customer board at the cover and arranged such that sound enters through the port in the base.
