Patent number: 11496820Abstract: The present invention provides a general MEMS device having a pair of quadrilateral insert and trench. An air channel/space includes a first internal wall and a second internal wall for air to flow between. A quadrilateral trench is recessed from the first internal wall, and a quadrilateral insert is extended from the second internal wall and inserted into the trench. In capacitive MEMS microphone, the spatial relationship between the insert and the trench can vary or oscillate. The quadrilateral insert & trench serve as an air flow restrictor or a leakage prevention structure which keeps the sound frequency response plot of the microphone flatter in the range of 20 Hz to 1000 Hz. The level of the air resistance may be controlled e.g. by the depth of quadrilateral trench/slot etched on the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2021Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: GMEMS TECH SHENZHEN LIMITEDInventors: Guanghua Wu, Xingshuo Lan
