In a method for operating a rotation rate sensor including a substrate and a seismic mass, the seismic mass is driven in a drive direction in parallel to the main extension plane of the sensor to carry out a drive movement, and, during a rotation of the rotation rate sensor, the seismic mass is moved in a detection direction perpendicular to the drive direction and perpendicular to the rotation rate as a result of the action of force caused by the Coriolis force. The movement in the detection direction has a deflection amplitude, and the rotation rate sensor includes a deflection support element acting on the seismic mass in such a way that the deflection amplitude in the detection direction is increased. |
