What sort of technology is this?

[trans4funks1]

I would like to understand the technology that the mic capsule in this description refers too. I am hoping someone may recognize the  specific device and may be able to point me to more detailed information.

Is there any place I can learn more about the actual underlying technology? Thank you.

"In contrast to standard condenser measurement microphones, which are potentially subject to subtle frequency response variations over time, MEMS technology is far more stable.

Thanks to the manufacturing process behind them, MEMS microphones boast extreme resistance to humidity and temperature variations"

Great. Thanks very much. I assumed the description "MEMS" was some sort of branding label I did not realize it was a factual description that could be found with a web search.

Thank you.
