RESONANZBRUECKEN-MIKROBESCHLEUNIGUNGS-MESSFUEHLER

摘要

A resonant bridge two-axis microaccelerometer is disclosed comprising polysilicon resonant bridges orthogonally attached to a silicon proof mass, such that the silicon proof mass is suspended by the resonant bridges. Acceleration in the plane of the substrate causes differential axial loads on the opposing microbridges in each pair, thereby shifting their resonant frequencies. The acceleration component aligned with a pair is measured by the difference in resonant frequencies.
