The invention relates to a cased electrical component comprising a carrier substrate (10), a spring device (20), which is arranged on the carrier substrate (10), a chip (30), which on a first side (31) of the chip is coupled to the spring device (20), and a cover element (100), which is arranged on the carrier substrate (10). The cover element (100) is arranged over the chip (20) such that the cover element (100) is in contact with the chip (30) at least on a second side (32) of the chip, which is different from the first side. The component has a low space requirement and is highly sealed with respect to influences from the surroundings.
