Background technology
Utilize the silicon micromechanical gyroscope of micro mechanical technology manufacturing to compare, have that volume is little, in light weight, cost is low, low in energy consumption a, advantage such as reliability is high, can produce in batches and be prone to and the CMOS interface circuit is integrated with traditional gyro.Can be widely used in many fields such as Aeronautics and Astronautics, automobile, weapon, medical science, consumer electronics, have huge market potential.Now the silicon micromechanical gyroscope of various structures emerges in an endless stream in the world, and their common feature is that mutually perpendicular two direction of vibration are arranged, i.e. the responsive direction of vibration that causes of excited vibration direction and coriolis force.
The type of drive that micromechanical gyro adopts usually has static driven and Electromagnetic Drive.Electromagnetic drive mode mainly is to utilize Lorentz force to realize, driving amplitude is big, but will adopt bigger drive current, and big power consumption causes device heating easily, thereby influences performance, and the manufacture craft more complicated will be made insulation course in addition.So adopt the static driven mode.The detection mode of micromechanical gyro mainly contains pressure drag and detects and capacitance detecting, and the pressure drag detection has bigger temperature coefficient, thus poor-performing.Wherein the silicon micromechanical gyroscope of static driven, capacitance detecting is because manufacture craft realizes characteristics such as temperature coefficient is little and extensively being adopted easily.The detection mode of micromechanical gyro generally adopts and becomes the detection of clearance-type biasing broach differential capacitance; Through the variable in distance between comb electrodes; Be that capacitance variations detects coriolis force, and then detect angular velocity signal, its advantage is simple in structure; But have bigger non-linearly between capacitance change and the pole plate displacement, promptly detect and have comparatively between output and the coriolis force to be detected that severe nonlinear concerns.In order to improve the linearity that becomes clearance-type biasing broach differential capacitance, can increase the gap difference, but this will make detection mass quality reduce, and influence the sensitivity of gyro.Have very big press-filming damping between biasing broach differential capacitance, make its quality factor very low, this has limited the raising of micromechanical gyro sensitivity, generally need under vacuum state, work, and has increased the difficulty and the cost of encapsulation.Adopt the mode that becomes the gap to detect capacitance variations owing to become clearance-type biasing broach differential capacitance, short range power effect strokes such as capillary adhesive force, Van der Waals for change thereupon, and this will influence the stability and the reliability of micromechanical gyro.

Embodiment
For example the present invention is made more detailed description below in conjunction with accompanying drawing:
The present invention proposes forward broach differential capacitance and U-shaped decoupling zero girder construction, and is forward linear between the variable quantity of broach differential capacitance and the pole plate displacement.Only have slide-film damping between comb electrodes, the detection system quality factor is very high, and gyro is worked under atmospheric conditions, also can obtain higher sensitivity.U-shaped decoupling zero girder construction has realized the full decoupled of drive system and detection system, reduces the mechanical couplings error, has improved signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio).The present invention can realize the raising of little gyro linearity, sensitivity and reliability from structure, Here it is the object of the invention.
In conjunction with Fig. 1 and 2, it comprise glass substrate 1, metal electrode 2,14,16,19, forward comb actuator 6,7, mass 8, forward broach differential capacitance 12, drive and detect electric capacity 15, fixed electorde 5,17,18, drive frame 4, anchor point 10,13, elastic beam 3,9,11; Wherein, metal electrode 2,14,16,19 sputters on the glass substrate, is bonded in the silicon chip on the glass substrate through bonding region; And etch structure on the silicon chip, and comprise the mass 8 in the middle of being positioned on this structure, forward comb actuator 6,7 is positioned over the two ends of mass; Forward broach differential capacitance 12 is positioned over mass both sides in addition; And be positioned over and drive the housing both sides drive detecting electric capacity 15, fixed electorde 5,17,18 links to each other drive frame 4 and anchor point 10,13 with bonding region; Drive frame 4 links to each other through elastic beam 3,9,11 with mass 8, and mass 8 links to each other through U-shaped decoupling zero girder construction with broach differential capacitance 12 forward.
When between the fixed electorde 5 of comb actuator and float electrode 7, applying ac signal, apply voltage V on the fixed electorde 2a 1=V DC+ V ACSin (ω t) applies voltage V on the fixed electorde 2b 2=V DC-V ACSin (ω t) then produces the electrostatic force of alternation on float electrode, mass 8 is defined as driving direction generation vibration along X axis and is defined as the driving mode of oscillation under the traction of float electrode.When the Z direction has the angular velocity input; Mass axially receives the effect of coriolis force at Y; On this direction, produce vibration, thereby drive another float electrode is defined as sensitive direction and responsive mode of oscillation along Y axial vibration, the electric capacity between detected activity electrode and detection fixed electorde increases at this moment; Electric capacity equivalent between detected activity electrode and detection fixed electorde reduces simultaneously, and then forward the differential capacitance of broach differential capacitance produces an alternating signal.This capacitance variations amplitude is directly proportional with input angular velocity, can record angular velocity signal thereby detect capacitance variations through interface circuit.Owing to adopted bilingual coupling structure; Bipolar decoupling-structure has been eliminated effectively and has been driven and detected the coupling between the mode of oscillation; The detected activity electrode has only sensitive direction to produce vibration, has only the driving direction vibration and drive float electrode, all works under the slide-film damping; Under atmospheric environment, work and can obtain bigger quality factor, the sensitivity of micromechanical gyro is improved.
