A micromechanical acceleration sensor includes a substrate, an elastic diaphragm which extends parallel to the substrate plane and which is partially connected to the substrate, and which has a surface region which may be deflected perpendicular to the substrate plane, and a seismic mass whose center of gravity is situated outside the plane of the elastic diaphragm. The seismic mass extends at a distance over substrate regions which are situated outside the region of the elastic diaphragm and which include a system composed of multiple electrodes, each of which together with oppositely situated regions of the seismic mass forms a capacitor in a circuit. In its central region the seismic mass is attached to the elastic diaphragm in the surface region of the elastic diaphragm which may be deflected perpendicular to the substrate plane.

A yaw rate sensor includes a drive mass element which is situated above a surface of a substrate and is drivable to vibrate by a drive device along a first axis extending along the surface, having a detection mass element, which is deflectable under the influence of a Coriolis force along a second axis perpendicular to the surface, and having a detection device by which the deflection of the detection mass element along the second axis is detectable. Due to the arrangement of the second axis perpendicular to the surface, the yaw rate sensor may be integrated into a chip together with additional yaw rate sensors suitable for detection of rotations about axes of rotation in other directions.

Measures are proposed by which the design freedom is significantly increased in the case of the implementation of the micromechanical structure of the MEMS element of a component, which includes a carrier for the MEMS element and a cap for the micromechanical structure of the MEMS element, the MEMS element being mounted on the carrier via a standoff structure. The MEMS element is implemented in a layered structure, and the micromechanical structure of the MEMS element extends over at least two functional layers of this layered structure, which are separated from one another by at least one intermediate layer.
