ABSTRACT:
A miniature transducer such as for an in-the-canal hearing aid, is disclosed. The transducer comprises a housing formed of a top cup joined to a bottom cup and defines an interior and an exterior. The bottom cup includes a base surface and a plurality of interconnected walls. The transducer further comprises a motor including a coil, a stack and an armature disposed substantially within the bottom cup. The housing includes an opening and a portion of the stack extends outwardly through the opening. Because the stack extends outwardly through the opening, the overall thickness of the transducer is reduced.
