Problems solved by technology

makes the swing mode shape of this accelerometer less symmetrical
In addition, when the external impact force is large, the cantilever beam will break and the mass block will collide with the frame.
Not only greatly reduces the detection reliability of the accelerometer, but even makes the accelerometer unable to work

Abstract

The invention provides an MEMS cantilever type accelerometer and a manufacture process thereof. The MEMS cantilever type accelerometer comprises a measuring body, an upper cover plate and a lower cover plate, wherein the upper and lower cover plates are connected with the measuring body; the measuring body comprises a frame and a counterweight block placed in the frame, and the counterweight block is connected with the frame via multiple cantilevers; and buffer beams are arranged between the counterweight block and the frame, one end of each buffer beam is connected with the counterweight block, and the other end of the buffer beam is connected with the frame. The buffer beams can effectively protect the accelerometer and prevent the accelerometer from damage caused by too large external force.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of sensors, in particular to an accelerometer and a manufacturing process thereof. Background technique [0002] Today, accelerometers are used in many applications, such as measuring the intensity of earthquakes and collecting data, detecting the impact strength of automobile collisions, and detecting the angle and direction of tilt in mobile phones and game consoles. With the continuous advancement of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, many small accelerometers at the nanometer scale have been widely used commercially. [0003] A traditional capacitive accelerometer, such as a Chinese patent with the patent number ZL03112312.0 and an announcement date of May 30, 2007, includes a cantilever beam and a mass. When there is acceleration, the mass block of the accelerometer will move towards the acceleration direction, so that the gap distance between the mass block and the electrode will change and lead ...
