Abstract

Acoustic transducers for generating electrical signals in response to acoustic signals are disclosed. In some embodiments, an acoustic transducer includes an at least partially evacuated hermetically sealed cavity defined in part by a first diaphragm. The acoustic transducer also includes a backplate disposed at least partially within the cavity. The cavity having a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure. The acoustic transducer further includes a pressure sensor coupled to the backplate and configured to sense the pressure in the cavity.
