    摘要: Provided is a technique forming a highly stable inertial sensor with a simple configuration by vacuum sealing a resonator which detects acceleration and exploiting a resonance vibration using a high Q value of a MEMS device. The inertial sensor includes: a detecting proof mass and beam 105 which detects acceleration; a driving electrode 106 which excites the detecting proof mass and beam 105; a resonant frequency tuning electrode 108 which changes the resonant frequency of the detecting proof mass and beam 105; and a detecting circuit which applies voltage (frequency controlling part 433, DAC part 436) to the resonant frequency tuning electrode 108 for changing the resonant frequency to cancel a change of the resonant frequency of the detecting proof mass and beam 105 when the acceleration is applied to the detecting proof mass and beam 105 during the vibration of the detecting proof mass and beam 105 by the voltage applied to the detecting proof mass and beam 105, and outputs the acceleration (CV converting part 430, ADC part 431, demodulation part 432, frequency controlling part 433, signal adjusting part 435) based on a value of the voltage applied to resonant frequency tuning electrode 108.

    摘要: A frequency readout gyroscope is provided, having 2 or 3 axes, in which the frequency of the carrier associated with the oscillation of the proof mass changes while the amplitude stays constant. The invention departs from conventional gyroscopes which rely on measuring transducer sense axis displacement (amplitude modulation) to determine angular input rate. The invention utilizes what could be termed a form of frequency modulation, such as evaluating frequency phase difference between the axes of modulation. Examples include gyroscopes having either a quadrature or Lissajous FM mode of operation, in which angle random walk contribution from the electronics is reduced by approximately two orders of magnitude.

    摘要: Fixed electrodes (A through F) are formed by means of a structural layer that has been provided on fixed bodies (7
    1 through 7
    4 ) of a silicon micro-machined substrate and a movable electrode (G) is formed by a movable body attached to fixed bodies (5
    1 through 5
    4 ) by flexible members (6
    1 through 6
    4 ). Variable capacitors of the parallel plate-type are formed by the movable electrode (G) and the fixed electrodes (A through F). When the movable electrode (G) has been vibrated, the Coriolis force incident to rotation or the force incident to acceleration are added to the movable electrode (G), with a result that the charge of the various variable capacitors change. By detecting the change in charge, both angular velocity and acceleration can be obtained. By providing another variable capacitor formed by a mass portion (H) by a movable body and the substrate, acceleration components in the directions of three axes can be detected.
