Microacoustic component and method for the production thereof
A microacoustic component includes a functional acoustic region, an inner marginal region and an outer marginal region. The cover covers the functional acoustic region and has a thin film and a bearing surface. The inner marginal region is acoustically coupled to the functional acoustic region and the bearing surface bears directly at least on a part of the inner marginal region.
1. A micro acoustic component, comprising:
a functional acoustic region;
an inner marginal region surrounding the functional acoustic region and being acoustically coupled to the functional acoustic region;
an outer marginal region surrounding the inner marginal region; and
a cover, which covers the functional acoustic region and has a thin film and a bearing surface, wherein the bearing surface bears directly at least on a part of the inner marginal region.
