摘要： An angular velocity sensor including a drive extension mode. In one aspect, an angular rate sensor includes a base and at least three masses disposed substantially in a plane parallel to the base, the masses having a center of mass. At least one actuator drives the masses in an extension mode, such that in the extension mode the masses move in the plane simultaneously away or simultaneously towards the center of mass. At least one transducer senses at least one Coriolis force resulting from motion of the masses and angular velocity about at least one input axis of the sensor. Additional embodiments can include a linkage that constrains the masses to move in the extension mode.

摘要： A system and method describes an inertial sensor assembly, the assembly comprises a substrate parallel to the plane, at least one in-plane angular velocity sensor comprising a pair proof masses that are oscillated in anti-phase fashion along an axis normal to the plane. The first in-plane angular velocity sensor further includes a sensing frame responsive to the angular velocity of the substrate around the first axis parallel to the plane and perpendicular to the axis normal to the plane. The assembly also includes at least one out-of-plane angular velocity sensor comprising a pair of proof masses that are oscillated in anti-phase fashion in the plane parallel to the plane. The out-of-plane angular velocity sensor further comprises a sensing frame responsive to the angular velocity of the substrate around the axis normal to the plane.
