Abstract: The electromechanical transducer (1) for transducing an electrical input signal into an electrical output signal comprises a resonator element (20) and an actuator (30) for inducing an elastic deformation of the resonator element (20). The elastic deformation is dependent on the electrical input signal and is resonantly enhanced when the electrical input signal comprises a signal component changing substantially with a resonance frequency of the resonator element The electrical output signal is a function of the elastic deformation. The resonance frequency includes a nominal frequency at an operating temperature and a temperature dependent frequency deviation from the nominal frequency.

Abstract: The MEMS element of the invention has a first, a second and an intermediate third electrode. It is given an increased dynamic range in that the switchable capacitor constituted by the second and the third electrode is provided in the signal path between input and output, and that the switchable capacitor constituted by the first and third electrode is provided between the signal path and ground. The MEMS element of the invention is very suitable for integration in a network of passive components.
