Description

MEMS fully decoupled gyroscope
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of vibrating angular velocity sensors, in particular to an MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) fully-decoupled gyroscope.
Background
The gyroscope is a sensing device for measuring the rotation angle or angular displacement of an object, is used for realizing the measurement and control of the attitude and the track of a motion carrier, and is a basic core device of an inertial system. Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) gyroscopes based on Micro-nano processing technology have the advantages of small volume, low power consumption, low cost, and capability of being integrated with circuits, and are widely applied to the fields of consumer electronics, medical electronics, automotive electronics, aerospace, military and the like. The MEMS gyroscope is widely commercialized and applied to a tuning fork structure gyroscope, the principle of the MEMS gyroscope is the Coriolis effect, when a rotation angular velocity is applied to the outside, a suspended movable microstructure of the MEMS gyroscope can be acted by Coriolis force under the action of oscillating motion, the movable structure can generate corresponding displacement under the action of Coriolis force, and the information of the angle and the angular velocity applied to the outside can be obtained by measuring a Coriolis force signal.
With the continuous development of the MEMS tuning fork gyroscope, the performance requirement of the gyroscope is continuously improved, but compared with the optical gyroscope applied to the high precision field, the precision and stability of the MEMS tuning fork gyroscope still have gaps. In the mass manufacturing process of the MEMS gyroscope, the micro-machining process inevitably has machining errors and defects, which may cause the geometric shape, mass and rigidity of the micro-gyroscope structure to change, thereby changing the resonant frequency of the gyroscope. Meanwhile, the machining error can cause the orthogonal coupling effect between the driving mode and the detection mode, and the generated orthogonal coupling error is generally far larger than a Coriolis force signal, so that the precision and the stability of the MEMS gyroscope are seriously influenced. In addition, as the application range of the MEMS tuning fork gyroscope is wider and wider, the application environment is also worse and worse. The MEMS gyroscope is inevitably subjected to external environments such as impact, vibration, etc., thereby affecting the dynamic response and output of the gyroscope. Therefore, improving the robustness of the gyroscope structure under processing errors and environmental influences is one of the biggest challenges in developing a high performance MEMS gyroscope.
At present, a commonly used MEMS tuning fork gyroscope structure generally adopts a symmetrical double-mass block structure, the driving mode of the MEMS tuning fork gyroscope is that two mass blocks perform reverse oscillation motion under a resonance condition, the detection mode of the MEMS tuning fork gyroscope is that the two mass blocks respectively perform secondary resonance motion in the Coriolis force direction, and finally a Coriolis force signal is detected in a differential output mode. The gyroscope has the advantages that common-mode signals caused by external impact and vibration can be offset, and the precision and the stability of the gyroscope are improved. However, in most of the commercial MEMS tuning fork gyroscope structures at present, the two masses and their respective supporting springs or beam structures are combined to form a relatively independent resonator structure, and the two resonators are generally connected by using the springs or beam structures to realize weak mechanical coupling. When processing defects and errors exist, the geometric dimensions of the resonators are changed, the mass and the rigidity between the two resonators cannot be completely matched, the structures of the two resonators are in orthogonal coupling in different degrees, meanwhile, the two resonators are different in response to common-mode signals of external environment changes such as impact and vibration input, and signal errors still exist when signals are output in a differential output mode.
