    摘要: The electrostatic elements already present in a vibratory gyroscope are used to simulate the Coriolis forces. An artificial electrostatic rotation signal is added to the closed-loop force rebalance system. Because the Coriolis force is at the same frequency as the artificial electrostatic force, the simulated force may be introduced into the system to perform an inertial test on MEMS vibratory gyroscopes without the use of a rotation table.

    摘要: A device can have an optical component having at least one alignment/attachment feature and a MEMS structure having a complimentary alignment/attachment feature for each alignment/attachment feature of the optical component. Each alignment/attachment feature of the optical component can mate with a corresponding alignment/attachment of the MEMS structure to align and/or attach the optical component to the MEMS structure. Thus, improved combinations of optical components and MEMS devices can be provided.

    摘要: A device may comprise an upper module cover, a lower module cover, an outer frame, and an actuator having a movable frame. The movable frame may be at least partially disposed intermediate the upper module cover and the lower module cover. A hinge flexure may interconnect the outer frame and the movable frame such that the movable frame is rotatable with respect to the outer frame. The upper module cover and/or the lower module cover may be adapted to limit a movement of the movable frame.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a planar member having a first planar surface, a hollow body having first and second end openings, and a window. The planar member is configured to receive a device mounted on the first planar surface and surrounded by at least a track of a first material having a first hardness affixed to the first planar surface. The hollow body has a sharp edge at the second end along a planar section of the hollow body. The hollow body comprises a second material with a second hardness equal to or greater than the first hardness. The window encloses the hollow body first end forming an enclosure interior region configured to surround the device. The window provides the transmission of light into or out of the interior region. The hollow body second end is urged against the first material to form a hermetically sealed enclosure around the device.
