A first plate 429 and a second plate 428 are disposed in each space, and the first plate 429 and the second plate 428 in each space are oppositely arranged.

[0077] The first detection capacitor and the second detection capacitor are used to detect the angular velocity in the first axis direction.
[0078] Further, the MEMS angular velocity sensor further comprises a plurality of drive beams and two groups of anchor points. Each group of anchor points comprises a second anchor point and a third anchor point arranged side by side along a third axis (e.g., the X axis), and each drive mass is coupled with a group of anchor points via a corresponding drive beam, wherein the second anchor point and the third anchor point in each group of anchor points are respectively located on the opposite sides of the drive mass coupled therewith, the third axis is perpendicular to the second axis, and the first axis is perpendicular to the plane formed by the third axis and the second axis.
[0079] Exemplarily, two sides of the first drive mass 101 are provided with the second anchor point 111 and the third anchor point 112 arranged side by side along the third axis direction, the first drive mass 101 is coupled with the second anchor point 111 via the drive beam 113, and is coupled with the third anchor point 112 via the drive beam 114.

[0080] Exemplarily, each drive mass includes three groups of push-pull drive capacitors and one group of drive feedback capacitors.
[0081] The first drive mass 101 is internally provided with the fourth cavity 116, the fourth cavity 116 contains the drive push-pull comb teeth 117 and the drive feedback comb teeth 118, the oppositely arranged drive push-pull comb teeth 117 form a push-pull drive capacitor, and the oppositely arranged drive feedback comb teeth 118 form a drive feedback capacitor.

[0084] The push-pull drive capacitors generate driving force under the action of alternating voltage, and the first drive mass 101 and the second drive mass 102 perform driving motion in the third axis direction with equal amplitude and opposite phase under the action of the driving force. When the angular velocity input in the first axis direction, the first detection mass 401 and the second detection mass 402 generate detection motion in the second axis direction with equal amplitude and opposite phase under the action of the Coriolis force, the first detection capacitor and the second detection capacitor generate differential output, and the output angular velocity can be detected.
[0085] Figure 2 A motion schematic diagram of a driving mode of a MEMS angular velocity sensor is shown.
[0086] As Figure 2As shown, under the action of electrostatic force, the first driving mass 101 and the second driving mass 102 perform linear motion within a plane (XOY plane) defined by the second and third axes, specifically linear motion along the direction of the third axis (e.g., the X-axis direction). The first driving mass 101 and the second driving mass 102 move in opposite directions. For example, the first driving mass 101 moves linearly along the positive direction of the first axis (e.g., the X-axis), and the second driving mass 102 moves linearly along the negative direction of the X-axis. In other embodiments, the second driving mass 102 may also move linearly along the positive direction of the third axis (e.g., the X-axis), and the first driving mass 101 may move linearly along the negative direction of the X-axis.
[0087] The first detection mass block 401 follows the first driving mass block 101 in linear motion along the same direction within the plane (XOY plane) defined by the first and second axes. The second detection mass block 402 follows the second driving mass block 102 in linear motion along the same direction within the plane (XOY plane) defined by the first and second axes. Exemplarily, the second detection mass block 402 moves linearly along the negative direction of a third axis (e.g., the X-axis), while the first detection mass block 401 moves linearly along the positive direction of the X-axis. In other embodiments, the second detection mass block 402 moves linearly along the positive direction of the third axis (e.g., the X-axis), while the first detection mass block 401 moves linearly along the negative direction of the X-axis.
[0088] Since the two detection mass blocks (first detection mass block 401 and second detection mass block 402) move with equal amplitude and opposite phase, the coupling beams 415 and 425 coupled with the torsion mass block 501 undergo deformation with opposite phase. The torsion beam 504 and the torsion mass block 501 do not move due to force balance. Therefore, in the driving mode, the damping comb teeth 502 inside the torsion mass block 501 do not move, do not generate additional damping, and do not affect the Q value in the driving mode.
[0089] In the driving mode, a lower Q value is achieved by using the drive push-pull comb teeth and drive feedback comb teeth set in the drive mass block, as well as by regulating the internal air pressure.
[0090] Figure 3 This paper illustrates a schematic diagram of the motion modes of a MEMS angular velocity sensor provided in an embodiment of this application when it has an angular velocity input in the Z-axis direction.
[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 two side anchors and the decoupling between the first detection mass 401. The second driving mass 102 does not move due to the constraints of the two side anchors and the decoupling between the second detection mass 402.
[0093] The torsional pendulum mass 501 rotates with the first detection mass 401 and the second detection mass 402 coupled thereto in the plane defined by the second axis and the third axis.
[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 detection capacitors.
[0095] In the detection mode, the first detection mass 401 and the second detection mass 402 move vertically with equal amplitude and opposite phase, and the torsional pendulum mass 501 follows the movement of the first detection mass 401 and the second detection mass 402 to move in the plane. At this time, the gap of the damping comb teeth 502 inside the torsional pendulum mass 501 changes, and the increase or decrease of the gap causes a large 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 the stability.
[0096] The present application can produce quantitative film damping by arranging different numbers or gaps of damping comb teeth 502 to quantitatively control the Q value of the MEMS angular velocity sensor in the detection mode.
[0097] It should be noted that the Q value control of the MEMS angular velocity sensor of the present application can 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] Further, the Q value in the driving mode is quantitatively controlled separately by air pressure adjustment, and the Q value in the detection mode is quantitatively controlled separately by the number of arranged damping comb teeth, thereby realizing the quantitative separate control of the Q values in the driving and detection modes and improving the flexibility and controllability of the design of the MEMS angular velocity sensor.
[0099] In accordance with the embodiments of the present application as described above, these embodiments do not exhaustively describe all the details and do not limit the present application to only the specific embodiments described. Obviously, many modifications and changes can be made according to the above description. The present application selects and specifically describes these embodiments in order to better explain the principles and practical applications of the present application, so that those skilled in the art can well utilize the present application and make modifications and uses based on the present application. The present application is limited only by the claims and their entire scope and equivalents.
