Surface Micromachined Microphone

; Background: In typical micromachined microphones, it is necessary to incorporate a significant volume of air behind the microphone diaphragm in order to prevent the back volume air from impeding the motion of the diaphragm. The air behind the diaphragm acts as a linear spring whose stiffness is inversely proportional to the nominal volume of the...
