AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The disadvantages of this method are: the precision of quartz wet etching is low, and it is difficult to make the structure smaller; secondly, micro-assembly after independent processing will introduce assembly errors. The state of the root vibrating beam is exactly the same, and there is often a large difference between the two beams due to pasting, which greatly reduces the effect of differential motion, and impurities such as water vapor in the glue will also affect the accuracy and stability of the accelerometer. In addition, due to the large difference in the thermal expansion coefficients of the two materials in the chip obtained by the split processing method, when the external environment temperature changes, thermal stress occurs in the axial direction of the quartz vibration beam, resulting in temperature drift of the accelerometer output
