摘要: A microphone has a movable diaphragm having a rest position, a stationary portion, and a set of springs movably coupling the diaphragm and the stationary portion. The diaphragm and stationary portion are spaced a first distance when the diaphragm is in the rest position. When not in the rest position, however, the diaphragm and stationary portion are capable of being spaced a second distance, which is greater than the first distance. Despite the change in distance, the diaphragm still is capable of returning the space from the second distance to the first distance when the diaphragm returns to the rest position.

摘要: A fiber-attached optical device with in-plane micromachined mirrors includes a cover having at least one reflector formed on one side and a substrate having a plurality of micromachined optical mirrors formed substantially on a single plane on a side facing toward the mirrored side of the cover. The micromachined optical mirrors are controllable to reflect optical signals between a plurality of optical fiber segments via the at least one reflector. The plurality of optical fiber segments can be attached to either the cover or the substrate so as to form an integrated package including the substrate, the cover, and the plurality of optical fiber segments. The mirrors can be controlled to variably attenuate the optical signals.

摘要: Rather than increasing the mass of the structure, the structure in a sensor system suspends its substrate from some mechanical ground. Motion of the substrate relative to the mechanical ground thus provides the movement information. To those ends, the sensor system includes a base, a substrate, and a flexible member suspended from at least a portion of the substrate. At least a portion of the flexible member is capable of moving relative to at least a portion of the substrate. In addition, the flexible member is secured to the base, thus causing the substrate to be movable relative to the base. Moreover, the mass of the substrate is greater than the mass of the flexible member. The substrate and flexible member are configured to interact to produce a motion signal identifying movement of the base.

摘要: A microphone system has a package with an interior, a MEMS microphone within the package interior and forming a backvolume between it and the package interior, and a MEMS valve coupled with at least one input aperture in the package. The package defines at least one input aperture (e.g., the prior noted aperture) for receiving an acoustic signal, and the MEMS microphone is mechanically coupled to at least a portion of one input aperture. The valve has a valve opening generally circumscribed by a valve seat. The valve is considered as having an open mode for permitting acoustic signal access into the package interior through the valve opening, and a closed mode for substantially preventing acoustic signal access into the package interior through the valve opening. The valve has a movable member configured to contact the valve seat when in the closed mode. This movable member is configured to move between the open mode and the closed mode in a direction that is generally perpendicular to the valve seat.
