摘要: One embodiment of the invention includes a vibrating-mass gyroscope system. A sensor system includes a substantially planar vibrating-mass including opposite first and second surfaces and electrodes that extend longitudinally in a periodic pattern across the first and/or second surfaces. The electrodes include sets of drive and sense electrodes that are capacitively coupled to respective matching sets of drive and sense electrodes associated with a housing and which are separated from and facing the respective first and second surfaces. A gyroscope controller generates a drive signal provided to one of the array of drive electrodes and the substantially matching array of drive electrodes to provide for in-plane periodic oscillatory motion of the vibrating-mass, and generates a force-rebalance signal that is provided to one of the array of sense electrodes and the substantially matching array of sense electrodes to calculate rotation of the vibrating-mass gyroscope system about an input axis.

摘要: Embodiments for modifying a spring mass configuration are disclosed that minimize the effects of unwanted nonlinear motion on a MEMS sensor, such as a gyroscope. Examples of gyroscope configurations (11A, 12A, 13A) includes at least one pair of counter-rotating arms (21A, 21B, 22A, 22B, 23A, 23B) linked to two traveling masses (31A, 31B, 32A, 32B, 33A, 33B). The modifications include any or any combination of providing a rigid element (21) between rotating structures of the spring mass configuration including the traveling masses (31A, 31B), tuning a spring system (22, 42A, 42B) between the rotating structures including the traveling masses (32A, 32B) and the rotating arms (12A, 12B) and coupling an electrical cancellation system (73A, 73B, 74A, 74B) to the rotating structures including the traveling masses (33A, 33B) and the rotating arms (23A, 23B). In so doing, unwanted nonlinear motion such as unwanted 2nd harmonic motion is minimized.

摘要: A microelectromechanical device includes: a support body (8, 10-13); at least one movable mass (15) of semiconductor material, elastically constrained to the support body (8, 10-13) so as to be able to oscillate; fixed detection electrodes (22, 23) rigidly connected to the support body (8, 10-13) and capacitively coupled to the at least one movable mass (15); and at least one test structure (17) of semiconductor material, rigidly connected to the support body (8, 10-13) and distinct from the fixed detection electrodes (22, 23). The test structure (17) is capacitively coupled to the at least one movable mass (15) and is configured to apply electrostatic forces (FX, FY, FZ) to the at least one movable mass (15) in response to a voltage between the test structure (17) and the at least one movable mass (15).

摘要: According to one arrangement, a sensor device includes a movable body (11) capable of vibrating, and a catch-and-release mechanism (14) capable of catching the vibrating movable body and capable of releasing the caught movable body. The catch-and-release mechanism includes a stopper portion (14b) capable of stopping vibration of the movable body when the movable body contacts the stopper portion, and an elastic member (14c) configured to reduce a force acting between the movable body and the stopper portion.

摘要: A gyroscope (150) comprises a substrate (101) and a guided mass system. The guided mass system comprises proof masses (102a, 651) and guiding arms (104a, 104b) disposed in a plane parallel to the substrate (101). The proof masses are coupled to the guiding arm by springs (103a, 103b). The guiding arm is coupled to the substrate by springs (108a,108b). At least one of the proof-masses (651) is directly coupled to the substrate (101) by at least one anchor via a spring system (710a,710b). The gyroscope also comprises an actuator (109a, 109b) for vibrating one of the proof-masses (102a) in the first direction, which causes another proof mass to rotate in the plane. Finally, the gyroscope also includes transducers (660a, 660b) for sensing motion of the guided mass system in response to angular velocities about a single axis or multiple input axes.
