[0077] The first detection capacitor and the second detection capacitor are used to detect the angular velocity in the direction of the first axis.

[0079] Exemplarily, a second anchor point 111 and a third anchor point 112 arranged in parallel along the third axis are provided on both sides of the first driving mass 101, and the first driving mass 101 is coupled to the second anchor point 111 via a driving beam 113, and is coupled to the third anchor point 112 via a driving beam 114. A second anchor point 121 and a third anchor point 122 arranged in parallel along the third axis are provided on both sides of the second driving mass 102, and the second driving mass 102 is coupled to the second anchor point 121 via a driving beam 123, and is coupled to the third anchor point 122 via a driving beam 124.
[0080] Exemplarily, each driving mass includes three groups of push-pull driving capacitors and one group of driving feedback capacitors.
[0081] A fourth cavity 116 is provided inside the first driving mass block 101 , and the fourth cavity 116 contains driving push-pull comb teeth 117 and driving feedback comb teeth 118 . The driving push-pull comb teeth 117 arranged opposite to each other form a push-pull driving capacitor, and the driving feedback comb teeth 118 arranged opposite to each other form a driving feedback capacitor.
[0082] A fourth cavity 126 is provided inside the second driving mass block 102. The fourth cavity 116 contains driving push-pull comb teeth 117 and driving feedback comb teeth 118. The driving push-pull comb teeth 127 arranged opposite to each other form a push-pull driving capacitor, and the driving feedback comb teeth 128 arranged opposite to each other form a driving feedback capacitor.
[0083] Further, the push-pull drive capacitors in the first drive mass 101 and the second drive mass 102 are symmetrical about the first axis and the second axis. The drive feedback capacitors in the first drive mass 101 and the second drive mass 102 are symmetrical about the first axis and the second axis.
[0084] The push-pull drive capacitor generates a driving force under the action of the alternating voltage, and the first drive mass block 101 and the second drive mass block 102 perform driving motions with equal amplitude and opposite phases in the direction of the third axis under the action of the driving force. When the angular velocity in the direction of the first axis is input, under the action of the Coriolis force, the first detection mass block 401 and the second detection mass block 402 generate detection motions with equal amplitude and opposite phases in the direction of the second axis, and the first detection capacitor and the second detection capacitor generate differential outputs, thereby detecting the output angular velocity.
[0085] Figure 2 A motion schematic diagram of a driving mode of a MEMS angular velocity sensor provided according to an embodiment of the present application is shown.
[0086] like Figure 2As shown, under the action of electrostatic force, the first drive mass 101 and the second drive mass 102 perform linear motion in the plane (XOY plane) defined by the second axis and the third axis, specifically, perform linear motion along the direction of the third axis (for example, the X-axis direction). The motion directions of the first drive mass 101 and the second drive mass 102 are opposite. Exemplarily, the first drive mass 101 performs linear motion along the positive direction of the first axis (for example, the X-axis), and the second drive mass 102 performs linear motion along the negative direction of the X-axis. In other embodiments, the second drive mass 102 may also perform linear motion along the positive direction of the third axis (for example, the X-axis), and the first drive mass 101 performs linear motion along the negative direction of the X-axis.
[0087] The first detection mass block 401 follows the first driving mass block 101 to perform linear motion in the same direction within the plane (XOY plane) defined by the first axis and the second axis. The second detection mass block 402 follows the second driving mass block 102 to perform linear motion in the same direction within the plane (XOY plane) defined by the first axis and the second axis. Exemplarily, the second detection mass block 402 performs linear motion in the negative direction along the third axis (e.g., the X-axis), and the first detection mass block 401 performs linear motion in the positive direction of the X-axis. In other embodiments, the second detection mass block 402 performs linear motion in the positive direction along the third axis (e.g., the X-axis), and the first detection mass block 401 performs linear motion in the negative direction of the X-axis.
[0088] Since the two detection masses (the first detection mass 401 and the second detection mass 402) move with equal amplitude and opposite phases, the coupling beams 415 and 425 coupled to the wobbling mass block 501 deform in opposite phases, and the wobbling beam 504 and the wobbling mass block 501 do not move due to force balance. Therefore, in the driving mode, the damping comb teeth 502 inside the wobbling mass block 501 do not move, and no additional damping is generated, which does not affect the Q value in the driving mode.
[0089] In the driving mode, a lower Q value is achieved by driving the push-pull comb teeth and the feedback comb teeth set in the driving mass block and regulating the internal air pressure.
[0090] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the motion mode of the MEMS angular velocity sensor provided in an embodiment of the present application when there is an angular velocity input in the Z-axis direction is shown.
[0091] like Figure 3 As shown, when there is an angular velocity input in the Z-axis direction, each of the first detection mass block 401 and the second detection mass block 402 moves linearly along the second axis direction, and the movement directions of the first detection mass block 401 and the second detection mass block 402 are opposite.
[0092] The first driving mass 101 does not move due to the constraints of the anchor points on both sides and the decoupling with the first detection mass 401 , and the second driving mass 102 does not move due to the constraints of the anchor points on both sides and the decoupling with the second detection mass 402 .
[0093] The yaw mass block 501 performs a rotational motion in a plane defined by the second axis and the third axis along with the first detection mass block 401 and the second detection mass block 402 coupled thereto.
[0094] When there is an angular velocity input in the Z-axis direction, the first detection capacitor and the second detection capacitor change. Therefore, the angular velocity in the Z-axis direction is obtained by calculating the change of the above detection capacitors.
[0095] In the detection mode, the first detection mass block 401 and the second detection mass block 402 make vertical motions with equal amplitude and opposite phases, and the wiggling mass block 501 performs in-plane torsional motion following the motions of the first detection mass block 401 and the second detection mass block 402. At this time, the gap between the damping comb teeth 502 inside the wiggling mass block 501 changes. The increase or decrease in the gap generates a larger squeeze film damping between the damping comb teeth 502, which can further increase the damping in the detection mode, thereby reducing the Q value of the detection mode and improving stability.
[0096] The present application can generate quantitative squeeze-film damping by arranging damping comb teeth 502 with different numbers or gaps, so as to quantitatively control the Q value of the MEMS angular velocity sensor in the detection mode.
[0097] It should be noted that the MEMS angular velocity sensor of the present application can regulate the Q value to maintain the Q value in the driving mode unchanged and quantitatively reduce the Q value in the detection mode under the premise that the internal air pressure remains unchanged.
[0098] Furthermore, the Q value in the driving mode is often quantitatively and individually controlled by adjusting the air pressure, and the Q value in the detection mode is quantitatively and individually controlled by the number of arranged damping comb teeth, thereby realizing quantitative and individual control of the Q value in the driving and detection modes, and improving the flexibility and controllability of the MEMS angular velocity sensor design.
[0099] According to the embodiments of the present invention as described above, these embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the invention to the specific embodiments described. Obviously, many modifications and changes can be made based on the above description. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments in order to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present invention, so that those skilled in the art can make good use of the present invention and the modified use based on the present invention. The present invention is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
