Abstract:
A microphone with an additional piezoelectric component for energy harvesting is provided, and includes a substrate penetrated through by a cavity, a diaphragm, and a piezoelectric conversion. The diaphragm includes a vibration portion and at least one connecting arm, and two ends of each of the at least one connecting arm are connected to the vibration portion and the substrate, respectively. The piezoelectric conversion component is disposed on one of the at least one connecting arm and configured to convert mechanical energy collected from a displacement of the diaphragm by sound to electrical energy. The piezoelectric conversion component is mounted on the diaphragm, so as to convert the mechanical energy collected from the diaphragm by the sound to the electrical energy, thereby effectively recycling the mechanical energy and avoiding a waste of energy.
