Abstract
Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards an electronic device that comprises a semiconductor substrate having a first surface opposite a second surface. The semiconductor substrate at least partially defines a cavity. A first microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) device is disposed along the first surface of the semiconductor substrate. The first MEMS device comprises a first backplate and a diaphragm vertically separated from the first backplate. A second MEMS device is disposed along the first surface of the semiconductor substrate. The second MEMS device comprises spring structures and a moveable element. The spring structures are configured to suspend the moveable element in the cavity. A segment of the semiconductor substrate continuously laterally extends from under a sidewall of the first MEMS device to under a sidewall of the second MEMS device.
