This lecture covers the design and fabrication of MEMS microphones, focusing on capacitive MEMS microphones used in smartphones. It explains the components of a MEMS microphone, the role of the back-chamber in acoustic performance, and the fabrication process involving surface and bulk micromachining. The application of MEMS microphones in smartphones, including voice pick-up and noise cancellation functions, is also discussed.
