A low-cost microelectromechanical system (MEMS) device has a mass-produced carrier fabricated as a pre-molded leadframe so that the space of the leadframe center is filled with compound and a two-tier stepped recess is created in the center. The first tier is filled by an inset with a first perforation and a second perforation. An integrated circuit chip with an opening and a membrane at the end of the opening, operable as a pressure sensor, microphone, speaker, etc., is assembled on the inset so that the chip opening is aligned with the first perforation. The chip is protected by a cover transected by a vent aligned with the second inset perforation. An air channel extends from the ambient exterior through the vent and the second perforation to the second tier recess, which acts as a channel and connects to the first perforation and the chip opening to the membrane.
