Description

Single-chip tri-axis magnetic field sensor and preparation method
Technical field
The present invention relates to sensor field, particularly relate to a kind of single-chip tri-axis magnetic field sensor and preparation method.
Background technology
Magnetic field sensor refers to magnetic signal or can be converted to a class sensor of the signal sensitivity of magnetic signal.Magnetic field sensor is widely used in the various application scenarios such as magnetic navigation, intelligent transportation, intelligent grid, automotive electronics, ferromagnetic material detection.Magnetic field itself is a vector field, and according to the detection characteristic of Magnetic Sensor, magnetic field sensor can be divided into scalar Magnetic Sensor and the large class of vector Magnetic Sensor two.The scalar Magnetic Sensor only detects the size in magnetic field, does not detect the direction in magnetic field, as optically pumped magnetometer, is only applicable to special application.The vector Magnetic Sensor can not only detect the size in magnetic field, can also detect the direction in magnetic field.If need to measure complete magnetic vector information, need three axial vector magnetic field sensors.For most Magnetic Sensor application scenario such as magnetic navigation, electronic compass, need to measure space magnetic field vector arbitrarily, therefore can have demand widely to simultaneously-measured three axis vector magnetic sensors of space magnetic field size and Orientation, market outlook are wide, have a high potential.
Three axis vector magnetic sensors normally adopt orthogonal three single shaft vector Magnetic Sensor assembled package to form, and wherein single shaft vector Magnetic Sensor is the sensor that can only measure the component of a direction of magnetic vector.Commercialization at present or the vector Magnetic Sensor of studying as Hall magnetic sensor, anisotropic magnetoresistive sensor (AMR), fluxgate and micro electronmechanical (MEMS) Magnetic Sensor, all adopt multi-chip assembled package method to form three axis vector magnetic sensors.
At present, the state-of-the-art of vector Magnetic Sensor is as follows:
1) Hall magnetic sensor is a kind of magnetic field sensor that utilizes the Hall effect making of semiconductor material.Pass to exciting current I at wafer two ends, when the vertical direction of wafer exists magnetic induction density to be the uniform magnetic field of B, on the direction perpendicular to electric current and magnetic field, producing electric potential difference is the Hall voltage of UH, and the Hall voltage size is directly proportional to magnetic field.Hall magnetic sensor is only responsive to the magnetic field vertical with direction of current or magnetic-field component, is a kind of vector Magnetic Sensor.Because the measurement of Hall magnetic sensor need to provide current excitation, therefore its power consumption is higher, magnetic field resolution is also lower; In addition, technical very difficult owing to directly making three orthogonal Hall elements on single-chip, utilize Hall magnetic sensor to make the package integrated method that magnetic sensor adopts multi-chip usually, this can increase size, power consumption and the packaging cost of three axle Hall magnetic sensors.For example, three axle Hall magnetic sensors of existing Melexis company development can be measured the magnetic field of 20-70mT, and magnetic field resolution is 1 μ T magnitude.
2) anisotropic magnetoresistive sensor (AMR) is the Magnetic Sensor of making according to the anisotropic magneto-resistive effect of ferromagnetic material.Ferromagnetic material (as permalloy) has anisotropic magnetoresistance, and when giving banded permalloy material by electric current I, its magneto-resistor depends on the angle of sense of current and direction of magnetization.The ultimate principle of AMR magnetoresistive transducer is: in anisotropic magnetic material outside magnetic field B, its direction of magnetization rotates, and when direction of magnetization turns to perpendicular to sense of current, the magneto-resistor of material will reduce; When direction of magnetization turns to when being parallel to sense of current, the magneto-resistor of material will increase.The AMR magnetoresistive transducer is general adopts four magneto-resistors to consist of the detection electric bridge, and under tested magnetic field B effect, wherein two resistances increase, two other resistance reduces, in its range of linearity, the output voltage of electric bridge to be directly proportional by measuring magnetic field, realize the detection of external magnetic field.Yet the power consumption of the electric bridge testing circuit of AMR magnetoresistive transducer is higher, and need to make resetting coil in sensor chip, needs very large exciting current when resetting, and its manufacturing process is also incompatible with CMOS technique; In addition, magnetic sensor is also to be formed by assembled package by the AMR sensor of three single shafts or a single shaft and a twin shaft AMR sensor, equally also can increase volume and the packaging cost of device.For example, the AMR magnetic resistance Magnetic Sensor minimum of Honeywell company development can detect the magnetic field of 8.5nT.
3) giant magnetoresistance (GMR) Magnetic Sensor is the lifting of AMR technology, its detection sensitivity has significantly raising, but also having technical difficulty aspect magnetic sensor making, is also to adopt by the GMR sensor of three single shafts or a single shaft and a twin shaft GMR sensor to form by assembled package usually.
4) fluxgate sensor forms around magnetizing coil, inductive coil by magnetic core is outer, and its magnetic field resolution can reach the 0.1nT magnitude.The magnetic core of fluxgate sensor adopts the soft magnetic material that magnetic permeability is high, coercive force is little, and the exciting curent during work in magnetizing coil is activated to magnetic core saturated, and its excitation power consumption is very high.For improving measuring accuracy, fluxgate sensor adopts bimag or track-shaped magnetic core structure to realize differential signal output.Three axis fluxgate sensors are also that the assembled package by single-axis sensors forms, and the three axis fluxgate sensor bulk that obtain are large, encapsulation precision requires highly, with high costs, only limit to high-end application scenario.The high resolving power of fluxgate generally only can obtain on traditional fluxgate magnetic sensor, and for the fluxgate sensor of microminiaturization, along with dwindling of size, the signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) of measuring accuracy, output, temperature characterisitic and stability also can decrease.The microminiaturization of fluxgate sensor need to be made the miniature magnetic core of low-resistance miniature three-dimensional coil and high magnetic permeability, and is technical very difficult.
4) the MEMS magnetic field sensor can satisfy miniaturization, low-power consumption and requirement cheaply, has obtained fast development since the nineties in last century.The MEMS Magnetic Sensor comprises two kinds of MEMS dynamic magnetic sensor and MEMS static-magnetic sensors.The survey magnetic principle of MEMS dynamic magnetic sensor is to drive micro mechanical structure by the Lorentz force that external magnetic field and exciting current interaction produce to detect magnetic field.During working sensor, micro mechanical structure is excited to resonant condition, and high Q value can increase substantially the sensitivity of sensor.For the Q value that obtains trying one's best high, must carry out the Vacuum Package of sensor, this has increased difficulty and the cost of manufacture craft greatly.This class MEMS Magnetic Sensor need to apply exciting current, and power consumption is higher, and owing to adopting the resonance working method, the working sensor bandwidth is narrow.With this class be operated in the MEMS dynamic magnetic sensor of resonant condition corresponding be MEMS static-magnetic sensor.Magnetic film and micro mechanical structure that MEMS static-magnetic sensor produces magnetic force combine, and its advantage is need not to add extra current excitation again and carry out Vacuum Package, thereby has significantly reduced power consumption and cost, have simultaneously simple in structure, the characteristics such as cost is low.
The research-and-development activity of MEMS Magnetic Sensor mainly concentrates on the MEMS Magnetic Sensor of single shaft at present, the method that realizes magnetic sensor is that (wherein one is single shaft MEMS Magnetic Sensor for three single shaft MEMS magnetic sensor chips or two magnetic sensor chips, another piece is the biaxial MEMS Magnetic Sensor) mutually the vertical cartel encapsulation form, encapsulation requires high, has also increased simultaneously volume and the packaging cost of device.Therefore, utilize the advantage of MEMS technology, development single-chip high sensitivity, low-power consumption, magnetic sensor has important practical value and market outlook cheaply.
