Description

集積型多元感測元件Integrated multi-sensor element

本發明是關於一種集積型多元感測元件,特別是關於一種利用有限的感測器元件架構,提供多種感測用途的多元感測元件。This invention relates to an integrated multi-sensor element, and more particularly to a multi-element sensing element that provides a variety of sensing applications using a limited sensor element architecture.

最近幾年,各種使用MEMS (微機電系統,microelectromechanical system)技術所製造的偵測器,大量應用於工業、商業以及日常生活的用途,提供執行監視和/或控制功能的應用。這些偵測器以有線或無線的方式,提供各種電參數,如電壓,電流,頻率等,輸入各種量測或應用電路,用來代表等效的物理,化學,生物等測量參數,以得出量測結果或進一步應用。這些偵測器體積微小,耗電量少,並經常提供無線通信能力。不同偵測參數的組合,並可提供複雜的監測與控制功能。In recent years, various detectors manufactured using MEMS (microelectromechanical system) technology have been widely used in industrial, commercial, and daily life applications to provide applications for performing monitoring and/or control functions. These detectors provide various electrical parameters such as voltage, current, frequency, etc. in wired or wireless manner, and input various measurement or application circuits to represent equivalent physical, chemical, biological and other measurement parameters.

The combination of different detection parameters and provides complex monitoring and control functions.

然而,現有的偵測器雖然體積縮小,但大部分只能提供少數偵測功能。如果特定的監測或控制功能須要使用多種的偵測參數,通常的作法是將感測能力不同的偵測器組合在一個大型電路內或設置在一片PCB上。導致所達成的感測器體積增大,須要較高的功耗,以及更高的複雜性。結果提高了設計與製造成本。However, although the existing detectors are reduced in size, most of them can only provide a small number of detection functions. If a particular monitoring or control function requires the use of multiple detection parameters, it is common practice to combine detectors with different sensing capabilities in one large circuit or on a single PCB. This results in an increased sensor volume, higher power consumption, and higher complexity. The result is increased design and manufacturing costs.

為進一步縮小偵測裝置的體積,提高製造效率,業者嘗試將不同的類型,即測量不同參數的偵測器,結合在單一基板上,例如成為單晶片的多元偵測元件。In order to further reduce the size of the detection device and improve the manufacturing efficiency, the operator attempts to combine different types of detectors that measure different parameters on a single substrate, for example, a multi-detection element of a single wafer.

The MEMS device includes a three-axis accelerometer and a plurality of gyroscopes that are stacked on a substrate. The sensing device can be used to provide a variety of sensing functions. However, this patent does not describe the circuit configuration that achieves these measurement functions.
