  • Publication number: 20210051414
    Abstract: The invention provides a piezoelectric micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) microphone includes a base with a cavity and a piezoelectric diaphragm arranged on the base. The base has a ring base and a support column. The piezoelectric diaphragm includes a plurality of diaphragm sheets. Each diaphragm sheet has a fixing end connected with the support column and a free end suspended above the cavity. The widths of the diaphragm sheets are gradually increased from the fixing ends to the free ends. According to the piezoelectric MEMS microphone provided by the invention, under sound pressure, the free ends vibrate, wide free ends drive short fixing ends, and the diaphragm sheets close the fixing ends generate greater deformation to generate more charge. Therefore, the sensitivity can be further improved.

  • Publication number: 20210051415
    Abstract: The invention provides a piezoelectric micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) microphone having a base with a cavity, a piezoelectric diaphragm, and a limit element. The base has a ring base, and a support column. The piezoelectric diaphragm includes diaphragm sheets. Each diaphragm sheet have a fixing end connected with the support column and a free end suspended above the cavity. The limit element includes a limit part arranged apart from the piezoelectric diaphragm to limit the free ends in vibration directions of the diaphragm sheets, and an edge fixing plate connected with the outer edge of the limit part and arranged on the ring base. When the diaphragm sheets greatly deform upwards under impact force, deformation of the diaphragm sheets can be controlled, and the diaphragm sheets are protected to prevent the diaphragm sheets from breaking, thereby improving the stability of the piezoelectric MEMS microphone.

The base has a ring base circumferentially forming a cavity, a support column. The piezoelectric diaphragm includes diaphragm sheets each having a fixing end connected to a support column and a free end suspended over the cavity. The restraining element has one end fixedly connected to the free end, the other end connected to the part on the base that is not connected to the fixing end. The piezoelectric MEMS microphone of the invention can constrain the deformation of the diaphragm sheet, thereby improving the resonant frequency of the piezoelectric diaphragm, reducing the noise of the whole piezoelectric MEMS microphone.
