Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Sensor mit einem thermostatierten mikroelektromechanischen Chip.The invention relates to a sensor with a thermostated microelectromechanical chip.
Mikro-Elektro-Mechanische Sensoren (MEMS) sind Bauelemente, die mikroskopisch kleine Sensoren oder auch Aktoren mit elektronischen Bauelementen auf einen Chip vereinen. Sie sind kostengünstig herstellbar und benötigen nur wenig Raum.Micro-electro-mechanical sensors (MEMS) are components that combine microscopic sensors or actuators with electronic components on a single chip. They are inexpensive to produce and require little space.
Häufige Anwendungen sind Neigungs- oder Winkelsensoren, Beschleunigungssensoren, Mikrofone oder auch Hochfrequenzrelais oder Schalter.Common applications are inclination or angle sensors, acceleration sensors, microphones or high-frequency relays or switches.
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen mikroelektromechanischen Winkelsensor oder Neigungssensor. Geräte mit solchen Sensoren werden auch von der Anmelderin hergestellt und vertrieben.The present invention relates to a microelectromechanical angle sensor or tilt sensor. Devices with such sensors are also manufactured and sold by the Applicant.
Bekannterweise hat der Temperaturgang dieser Bauelemente einen großen Einfluss auf das Messergebnis. Deshalb werden sie oftmals thermostatiert, d. h. durch Heizung oder Kühlung stets bei einer bestimmten Temperatur betrieben. Um die Heiz- oder Kühlleistung gering zu halten, werden die Bauelemente üblicherweise thermisch von ihrer Umgebung entkoppelt.As is known, the temperature response of these components has a great influence on the measurement result. Therefore, they are often thermostated, d. H. operated by heating or cooling always at a certain temperature. In order to keep the heating or cooling power low, the components are usually thermally decoupled from their environment.
Die
Als nachteilig wird die vergleichsweise hohe Komplexität dieses Bauelements angesehen. Insbesondere bei kleineren Stückzahlen möchte man einen noch preiswerteren MEMS-Chip verwenden, der zunächst ohne interne Thermostatierung auskommt und nur bei Bedarf bei unterschiedlichen Messaufgaben mit oder ohne Thermostatierung einsetzbar ist.A disadvantage is considered the comparatively high complexity of this device. Especially for smaller quantities you want to use an even cheaper MEMS chip, which initially works without internal thermostating and can be used only when necessary for different measurement tasks with or without thermostating.

Der Wesentliche Erfindungsgedanke besteht darin, die Thermostatierung auf der den MEMS tragenden Leiterplatte durchzuführen. Dabei wird die Leiterplatte so ausgestaltet, dass die hier ebenfalls gewünschte thermische Entkopplung des MEMS von seiner Umgebung erreicht wird.The essential idea of the invention is to carry out the thermostating on the MEMS-carrying circuit board. In this case, the circuit board is designed so that the here also desired thermal decoupling of the MEMS is achieved by its environment.
Der Vorteil besteht darin, dass ein preiswerterer MEMS-Chip ohne eine interne mechanische Entkopplung und/oder Thermostatierung für unterschiedliche Messaufgaben einsetzbar ist, was insbesondere für eine große Gerätepalette mit kleineren Stückzahlen interessant ist.The advantage is that a cheaper MEMS chip without an internal mechanical decoupling and / or thermostating can be used for different measuring tasks, which is particularly interesting for a large range of devices with smaller quantities.

Die Temperatur wird in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel mit einem Platinwiderstand PT1000 in der üblichen Brückenschaltung gemessen und einem Port des Mikrocontrollers μC zugeführt. Natürlich kann die Temperatur auch mit einem Thermoelement gemessen werden. Da der Aufbau eines derartigen Neigungssensors bekannt ist, wurde auf weitere Einzelheiten verzichtet. Lediglich die Stromversorgung ist oben rechts angedeutet.The temperature is measured in this embodiment with a platinum resistor PT1000 in the usual bridge circuit and fed to a port of the microcontroller μC. Of course, the temperature can also be measured with a thermocouple. Since the structure of such a tilt sensor is known, has been dispensed with further details. Only the power supply is indicated on the top right.
