Abstract

Microphone hermétique implantable comprenant une membrane ayant une partie centrale mince entourée d'un bord plus épais. Un électret présente un côté qui adhère à la membrane tandis que l'autre côté qui est en contact avec une plaque dépolie. Le bord adhère à un boîtier renfermant ainsi hermétiquement l'électret. Le microphone comprend également un connecteur électrique qui relie à la fois la plaque et l'électret à l'entrée d'un amplificateur intégré à un appareil de correction auditive implantable. De préférence, le microphone est incorporé dans un module électronique hermétique avec l'amplificateur et un accumulateur d'énergie, comme une pile qui alimente l'appareil de correction auditive implantable. Dans une telle configuration, la membrane du microphone forme une face du boîtier contenant le module électrique. Un connecteur électrique relie un signal de sortie de l'amplificateur à un microactionneur de l'appareil de correction auditive implantable.
