نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, an architecture designed for electrical measurement of the quality factor of MEMS resonators is proposed. An estimation of the measurement performance is made using PSPICE simulations taking into account the component's non-idealities. An error on the measured Q value of only several percent is achievable, at a small integration cost, for sufficiently high quality factor values (Q > 100).

In this study the dynamic behaviour of perforated microplates oscillating under the effect of squeeze film damping is analyzed. A numerical approach is adopted to predict the effects of damping and stiffness transferred from the surrounding ambient air to oscillating structures; the effect of hole’s cross section and plate’s extension is observed. Results obtained by F.E.M. models are compared ...

The preamplifier is a critical component of gyrometer’s electronics. Indeed the resolution of the sensor is limited by its signal to noise ratio, and the gyrometer’s thermal stability is limited by its gain drift. In this paper, five different kinds of preamplifiers are presented and compared. Finally, the design of an integrated preamplifier is shown in order to increase the gain stability whi...

Deflection behavior of several encapsulant materials under uniform pressure was studied to determine the best encapsulant for MEMS device. Encapsulation is needed to protect movable parts of MEMS devices during high pressure transfer molded packaging process. The selected encapsulant material has to have surface deflection of less than 5 μm under 100 atm vertical loading. Deflection was simulat...
متن کاملStresa, Italy, 25-27 April 2007 ONE MEMS DESIGN TOOL WITH MAXIMAL SIX DESIGN FLOWS
This paper presents one MEMS design tool with total six design flows, which makes it possible that the MEMS designers are able to choose the most suitable design flow for their specific devices. The design tool is divided into three levels and interconnected by six interfaces. The three levels are lumped-element model based system level, finite element analysis based device level and process le...
