description	A microelectromechanical button device is provided with a detection structure having: a substrate of semiconductor material with a front surface and a rear surface; a buried electrode arranged on the substrate; a mobile electrode, arranged in a structural layer overlying the substrate and elastically suspended above the buried electrode at a separation distance so as to form a detection capacitor; and a cap coupled over the structural layer and having a first main surface facing the structural layer and a second main surface that is designed to be mechanically coupled to a deformable portion of a case of an electronic apparatus of a portable or wearable type. The cap has, on its first main surface, an actuation portion arranged over the mobile electrode and configured to cause, in the presence of a pressure applied on the second main surface, a deflection of the mobile electrode and its approach to the buried electrode, with a consequent capacitive variation of the detection capacitor, which is indicative of an actuation of the microelectromechanical button device.
