    摘要: A micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) device comprises at least one proof mass configured to have a first voltage and a motor motion in a first horizontal direction. At least one sense plate is separated from the proof mass by a sense gap, with the sense plate having an inner surface facing the proof mass and a second voltage different than the first voltage. A set of stop structures are on the inner surface of the sense plate and are electrically isolated from the sense plate. The stop structures are configured to prevent contact of the inner surface of the sense plate with the proof mass in a vertical direction. The stop structures have substantially the same voltage as that of the proof mass, and are dimensioned to minimize energy exchange upon contact with the proof mass during a shock or acceleration event.

    摘要: An external force detecting device capable of accurately and easily detecting external force applied to a piezoelectric piece is provided. A crystal piece 2 is cantilever-supported in a container 1. Excitation electrodes 31, 41 are formed on an upper face and lower face, respectively, for example in a center portion of the crystal piece 2. On a front end portion of a lower face side of the crystal piece 2, a movable electrode 5 connected via a lead-out electrode 42 to the excitation electrode 41 is formed on the lower face side, and a fixed electrode 6 is provided on a bottom portion of the container 1 to face this movable electrode 5. The excitation electrode 31 on the upper face side and the fixed electrode 6 are connected to an oscillation circuit 14. When the crystal piece 2 bends by external force applied, capacitance between the movable electrode 5 and fixed electrode 6 changes, and this capacitance change is regarded as a change in oscillation frequency of the crystal piece.

    摘要: The present invention easily achieves an accurate control structure for limiting displacement of a weight (310; 310B). An SOI substrate with a trilaminar structure including a silicon layer (10), a silicon oxide layer (20), and a silicon layer (30) is prepared, and slits (S1-S4) are opened by applying induced coupling plasma etching which can selectively remove only silicon from the upper side. Then, the same etching is applied from the lower side to form grooves (G1, G2), whereby the silicon layer (30) is separated into a weight (310; 310B) and a pedestal (330; 330B). Next, the structure is immersed in an etchant which can selectively remove only silicon oxide, whereby the vicinities of exposed portions of the silicon oxide layer (20) are removed to form joint layers. A glass substrate (400) is joined to the bottom surface of the pedestal (330; 330B). Piezo resistor elements (Rx1-Rx4, Ry1-Ry4, Rz1-Rz4) are formed on the upper surface of the silicon layer (100) to detect bending. The degree of freedom of upward displacements of the weight (310; 310B) is accurately set based on the thickness of the joint layer (200; 200B).

    摘要: A method is provided for testing a multi-axis micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) acceleration sensor. The method includes applying a first voltage to a first-axis excitation plate to move a first proof mass in contact with a proof mass stop; applying a second voltage to a second-axis excitation plate while maintaining the first voltage to the first-axis excitation plate, to move the first proof mass in a direction orthogonal to the first-axis while in contact with the proof mass stop; applying one or more low voltage excitation signals to the first-axis excitation plate; and detecting if an output voltage of the MEMS device is higher than a threshold voltage.
