A component has at least one MEMS element and at least one cap made of a semiconductor material. The cap, in addition to its mechanical function as a terminus of a cavity and protection of the micromechanical structure, is provided with an electrical functionality. The micromechanical structure of the MEMS element of the component is situated in a cavity between a carrier and the cap, and includes at least one structural element which is deflectable out of the component plane within the cavity. The cap includes at least one section extending over the entire thickness of the cap, which is electrically insulated from the adjoining semiconductor material in such a way that it may be electrically contacted independently from the remaining sections of the cap.

A simple and cost-effective manufacturing method for hybrid integrated components including at least one MEMS element, a cap for the micromechanical structure of the MEMS element, and at least one ASIC substrate, using which a high degree of miniaturization may be achieved. The micromechanical structure of the MEMS element and the cap are manufactured in a layered structure, proceeding from a shared semiconductor substrate, by applying at least one cap layer to a first surface of the semiconductor substrate, and by processing and structuring the semiconductor substrate proceeding from its other second surface, to produce and expose the micromechanical MEMS structure. The semiconductor substrate is then mounted with the MEMS-structured second surface on the ASIC substrate.

Measures are provided for stress decoupling between a semiconductor component and its mounting support, these measures being implementable very easily, inexpensively and in a space-saving manner, regardless of the substrate thickness of the component, and not being limited to soldered connections but instead also being usable in conjunction with other mounting and joining techniques. These measures relate to components, which include at least one electrical and/or micromechanical functionality and at least one wiring level, which is formed in a layer structure on a main surface of the component substrate, at least one mounting surface being implemented in the wiring level to establish a mechanical and/or electrical connection of the component to a support. The at least one mounting surface is spring mounted and is separated from the layer structure in at least some areas for this purpose.
