Abstract

A dual-diaphragm differential capacitive microphone includes: a back plate, a first diaphragm, and a second diaphragm. The first diaphragm is insulatively supported on a first surface of the back plate, where the back plate and the first diaphragm form a first variable capacitor. The second diaphragm is insulatively supported on a second surface of the back plate, where the back plate and the second diaphragm form a second variable capacitor. The back plate is provided with at least one connecting hole. The second diaphragm is provided with a recess portion recessed towards the back plate, where the recess portion passes through the connecting hole and is connected to the first diaphragm. The dual-diaphragm differential capacitive microphone achieves a higher signal-to-noise ratio.
