Abstract

In an example, the present invention provides a micro-speaker device. The device has a movable diaphragm device comprising a thickness of silicon or graphene material which has a first surface and a second surface opposite of the first surface and sensor to track position of the diaphragm. The device has a housing enclosing the movable diaphragm device, the electrode device and an encapsulation device. The electrode device can be part of a CMOS device with electronics integrated on to the device that converts input audio signal in to signal that electrostatically actuates the micro-speaker from one or more surfaces.
