Micromechanical acceleration sensor

摘要

A micromechanical acceleration sensor consists of a first semiconductor wafer and a second semiconductor wafer, where on the first semiconductor wafer first and second electrodes, are provided to create a variable capacitance and the second semiconductor wafer has a movable third electrode, and where on the first semiconductor wafer there is a microelectronic evaluation unit. The moveable electrode is a rocker suspended asymmetrically with regard to an axis of rotation such that each respective portion is of a different length and is opposite one of the first and second electrodes. A closed ring structure is disposed on the surface of the first semiconductor wafer.
