Aspects of the subject technology relate to inductive acoustic filters for acoustic devices. An inductive filter may include a substrate, an etched serpentine channel in a surface of the substrate and extending within the substrate from a first port in the substrate to a second port in the substrate. The inductive filter may also include a polymer cover layer adhesively attached to the surface of the substrate over the etched serpentine channel. The inductive filter may be positioned over an opening in a substrate of an acoustic module, such as a microphone module or a speaker module.
