MICROMECHANIC COMPONENT HAVING MEMBRANE AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF

The component has a membrane on an upper side and a counter unit, where a hollow space is formed between the membrane and the counter unit. The counter unit has a passage hole (4) in a rear volume that is formed by a closed hollow space below the counter unit. The hollow space contacts the upper sid...

Summary:The component has a membrane on an upper side and a counter unit, where a hollow space is formed between the membrane and the counter unit. The counter unit has a passage hole (4) in a rear volume that is formed by a closed hollow space below the counter unit. The hollow space contacts the upper side of the membrane below the counter unit through a pressure balance opening (5). The hollow space below the counter unit has a lateral contraction. The membrane and the counter unit function as electrodes for capacitive detection of membrane deformations. An independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing a micromechanical component with a membrane.
