Abstract
A sensor arrangement includes a substrate having a through opening between a first and a second main surface region, a sound transducing portion at the first main surface region of the substrate and spanning the through opening in the substrate, and a pressure sensing portion at the first main surface region of the substrate and fluidically coupled to the through opening in the substrate. The sound transducing portion includes a deflectable membrane structure, and a counter electrode. The pressure sensing portion includes a first and second rigid electrode and a deflectable membrane structure. The deflectable membrane structure of the pressure sensing portion opposes the plane of the first main surface region of the substrate. The first and second rigid electrodes of the pressure sensor form a reference capacitor of the pressure sensor, and the second rigid electrode and the membrane structure form a sense capacitor of the pressure sensor.
