Design of Low Noise Readout Amplifiers for Monolithic Capacitive CMOS-MEMS Accelerometers
This thesis report describes the design process, the implementation and the simulation and measurement results of two different readout circuits to be used with two monolithic MEMS accelerometers fabricated by post-CMOS surface micromachining based on isotropic wet etching in IHP SiGe 0,25 μm technology. The first design is used with a 50 fF z-axis sensor and the second design with a 200 fF sen...
متن کاملBandwidth Optimization Design of a Multi Degree of Freedom MEMS Gyroscope
A new robust multi-degree of freedom (multi-DOF) MEMS gyroscope is presented in this paper. The designed gyroscope has its bandwidth and amplification factor of the sense mode adjusted more easily than the previous reported multi-DOF MEMS gyroscopes. Besides, a novel spring system with very small coupling stiffness is proposed, which helps achieve a narrow bandwidth and a high amplification fac...
متن کاملReal time assessment of hand–arm vibration system based on capacitive MEMS accelerometers
Vibrations are a well known potential cause of health diseases and therefore constitute a main concern for the safety of workers in a large number of activities. In order to prevent health hazards, national and international institutions have issued laws and directives which establish recommended limits to the workers’ exposure to vibrations during operations. Consequently, if the amount of ads...
متن کاملAuto-calibration of capacitive MEMS accelerometers based on pull-in voltage
This paper describes an electro-mechanical auto-calibration technique for use in capacitive MEMS accelerometers. Auto-calibration is achieved using the combined information derived from an initial measurement of the resonance frequency and the measurement of the pull-in voltages during device operation, with an estimation of process-induced variations in device dimensions from layout and deviat...
متن کاملPerformance evaluation of MEMS accelerometers
Researchers have been looking for alternatives of expensive conventional accelerometers in vibration measurements. Micro-ElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) accelerometer is one of the available options. Here the performance of one of these MEMS accelerometers compared with a well known commercial accelerometer.
