摘要： An electrophotographic printer includes an exposure unit having a MEMS scanner operable to scan a beam of light across a photoconductor. The MEMS scanner includes a mirror having an aspect ratio similar to the shape of the facets of a conventional rotating polygon scanner. In a preferred embodiment, the scan mirror has a length of about 750 microns in a dimension parallel to its axis of rotation and a length of about 8 millimeters in a dimension perpendicular to its axis of rotation. The MEMS scanner is operable to scan at a frequency of about 5 KHz and an angular displacement of about 20 degrees zero-to-peak mechanical scan angle.

摘要： A resonant MEMS scanning system operates a MEMS scanner at its resonant frequency to maximize scan angle and minimize power consumption. A controller includes a phase locked loop, an amplitude servo control loop, and a resonant frequency servo control loop. A microprocessor controls the loops and provides override during conditions such as start-up. Resonant frequency is dynamically thermally trimmed, allowing the device to be operated at higher Q. The phase lock loop operates in a pre-lock condition to allow faster start-up. Resonant frequency is controlled open loop during idle and start-up. Drive voltage is set high during start-up to achieve a rapid rise in scan angle.

摘要： A MEMS oscillator, such as a MEMS scanner, has an improved and simplified drive scheme and structure. Drive impulses may be transmitted to an oscillating mass via torque through the support arms. For multi-axis oscillators drive signals for two or more axes may be superimposed by a driver circuit and transmitted to the MEMS oscillator. The oscillator responds in each axis according to its resonance frequency in that axis. The oscillator may be driven resonantly in some or all axes. Improved load distribution results in reduced deformation. A simplified structure offers multi-axis oscillation using a single moving body. Another structure directly drives a plurality of moving bodies. Another structure eliminates actuators from one or more moving bodies, those bodies being driven by their support arms.

摘要： A high performance MEMS scanner is disclosed. In some embodiments, scanner mirror has a wide and short aspect ratio that is similar to rotating polygon facets. Long torsion arms allow large rotation angles including 20° zero-to-peak mechanical and greater. Suspensions couple the scan mirror to torsion arms, reducing dynamic mirror deformation by spreading the torque load. “leverage members” at the distal ends of the torsion arms help reduce stress concentrations. Elimination of a mounting frame increases device yield. Heater leads allow for precise trimming of the scanner resonant frequency. A compressive mount holds mounting pads against mounting structures.

摘要： Devices are formed on a semiconductor wafer in an interdigitated relationship and are released by deep reactive ion etching. MEMS scanners are formed without a surrounding frame. Mounting pads extend outward from torsion arms. Neighboring MEMS scanners are formed with their mounting pads interdigitated such that a regular polygon cannot be formed around a device without also intersecting a portion of one or more neighboring devices. MEMS scanners may be held in their outlines by a metal layer, by small semiconductor bridges, or a combination.

摘要： A molding apparatus can include a primary mold, a stripper, and a swinging member. The swinging member can comprise a molding surface defining an undercut portion of a molded item. The swinging member can directly contact or attached to the stripper and the primary mold. To facilitate removal of a molded item, the swinging member can withdraw through a hole in the primary mold as a direct result of a motion of the stripper to pull the molded item off the primary mold. The molded item can then be easily removed.
