Abstract

The present invention provides an angular velocity sensor that can diagnose abnormalities without having on a tuning fork vibrator special abnormality diagnostic signal input electrodes or reference potential ground electrodes to reduce errors in detecting angular velocity. Switches are used to generate drive signals of the same phase at output terminals, thereby bending arms in the Z-axis direction of tuning fork vibrator 1. The electric charges generated from tenth electrode and 12th electrode formed respectively on arms are amplified respectively at first amplifier and second amplifier. The outputs of these amplifiers are inputted to differential amplifier, whose output is compared by comparator with a prescribed value generated by reference value generator. When the output exceeds the prescribed value, comparator determines an abnormality.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an angular velocity sensor with an abnormality detection function. Background technique [0002] As a conventional angular velocity sensor of this kind, it is introduced in, for example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2000-88584. 4B, 4C, 4A, and 4D are development views of electrodes formed on the outer peripheral surface of the vibrator seen from the front, rear, left and right sides of the vibrator described in JP-A-2000-88584. In these figures, driving electrodes 101 and 102 are respectively provided on the X1 surface which is one main surface of the tuning fork vibrator 100 made of piezoelectric ceramics. Angular velocity detection electrodes 103 , 104 are respectively provided on Y1 , Y2 surfaces that are side surfaces of the tuning fork vibrator 100 . Abnormality diagnosis signal input electrodes 105 and 106 are provided near the inner side of the X1 surface on the arm of the tuning fork vibrator 100 ...
