The bottom diaphragm is electrically active and forms the capa- citive electroacoustic transducer together with the back plate. The top diaphragm is passive and seals the microphone against sweat and moisture. Robust sealing of the housing is ensured by a silicone ring. Since the diaphragms are extremely small and thin (less than 1 μm), the fact that they are made of different materials does not influence their acoustic properties – over a wide frequency range, these diaphragms oscillate in tandem.
