At first please in the lump with reference to figure 4, wherein Fig. 4 shows the sketch map of the microelectromechanicdevices devices of making according to first embodiment of the invention, and Fig. 5 shows the equivalent structure sketch map of little sensing module of the microelectromechanicdevices devices of making according to first embodiment of the invention.Microelectromechanicdevices devices 1 reads technology for using electric capacity; With another physical property of capacitance variation quantitative response; Like the device of accekeration, acceleration direction or other physical property, so can derive the present situation of physical property or utilize the foundation of capacitance change actuation of the switch through the capacitance that reads as whether.Microelectromechanicdevices devices 1 in this example is a chip, is that it can be used as accelerometer, inclinometer, switch of inclination or gyroscope etc., so is not limited thereto with the formed coordinate system encapsulation of XY reference axis.Shown in figure, the microelectromechanicdevices devices 1 of present embodiment comprises that two are arranged on the little sensing module 10,20 and the treatment circuit 30 on next door each other.Treatment circuit 30 is arranged on the zone outside little sensing module 10,20, and is electrically connected little sensing module 10,20.
Little sensing module 10 comprises fixed part 11, moving part 12 and two elastomers 13.Fixed part 11 connects the main body of chip, is fixed part, and the fixed part 11 of present embodiment is provided with a plurality of first parallel battery lead plate 11A.12 of moving parts are the suspension parts in little sensing module 10, are borrowing elastomer 13 to be connected in fixed part 11, therefore can a little displacement.In the present embodiment, moving part 12 is provided with a plurality of second parallel battery lead plate 12A and third electrode plate 12B and mass 12C, and the development length of the second battery lead plate 12A and third electrode plate 12B is also unrestricted, and the one of which end all is connected in mass 12C.The second battery lead plate 12A is parallel to the A direction, and is that mode interlaced with each other is arranged between the first battery lead plate 11A, and spacing therebetween is apart from d A Third electrode plate 12B is parallel to the B direction, and the spacing between the first battery lead plate 11A is apart from d BA direction and B direction are opposite directions.Since the material of the first battery lead plate 11A, the second battery lead plate 12A and third electrode plate 12B or each other apart from d A, d BCan influence the capacitance intensity that reads, the flat board of therefore preferably selecting for use metal to make is to obtain significantly capacitance readings.Mass 12C connects the second battery lead plate 12A and third electrode plate 12B, and is preferably the object that accounts for moving part 12 significant proportion quality, its profile or size and indefinite, and the mass 12C that in Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, is shown is merely example.Two elastomers 13 all are parallel to the C direction, are connected to mass 12C two ends, and link to each other with fixed part 11.The bearing of trend (B direction) of the bearing of trend of second battery lead plate (A direction) and elastomer bearing of trend (C direction) and third electrode plate and the angle of elastomer bearing of trend (C direction) are respectively between 6~84 degree; Present embodiment is to be that 45 situation when spending are example with these angles, not as limit.Because in little sensing module 10 of present embodiment, only have two elastomers 13 to be connected between mass 12C and the fixed part 11, the moving direction of mass 12C can be parallel to the bearing of trend of elastomer 13.
The internal structure symmetry of the internal structure of little sensing module 20 and little sensing module 10 in order to save space, is mainly described the difference part between the internal structure at this, and other identical part repeats no more.The bearing of trend of the elastomer 23 of little sensing module 20 is vertical with the bearing of trend of the elastomer 13 of little sensing module 10; More specifically say; The bearing of trend of the elastomer 23 of little sensing module 20 is upper left to the bottom right; And the bearing of trend of the elastomer 13 of little sensing module 10 is upper right to a left side, and the second battery lead plate 12A of little sensing module 10 is perpendicular to the second battery lead plate 22A of little sensing module 20.
When microelectromechanicdevices devices 1 changes its placement location in the XY coordinate system; In the time of can receiving acceleration; The moving part 12 that suspends can receive an application of force according to newton's second law of motion; This application of force can put on the second-order system that mass 12C and elastomer 13 and air form, and makes mass 12C move and changes the length of elastomer 13.Can drive the second battery lead plate 12A and the third electrode plate 12B that are attached thereto when mass 12C moves and move, therefore change apart from d toward equidirectional AWith apart from d BTreatment circuit 30 can respective distances d at this moment AAnd apart from d BRelevance transmit a signal, such as: the capacitance between the first battery lead plate 11A and the second battery lead plate 12A can receive apart from d AChange influence, and the capacitance between the first battery lead plate 11A and the third electrode plate 12B can receive apart from d BChange influence, therefore, treatment circuit 30 can transmit corresponding signal according to the capacitance change amount that reads, however the mode that signal is handled also can have other variation, is not limited to this.
In addition; Because in the present embodiment; The second battery lead plate 12A in little sensing module 10,20,22A are not vertical with elastomer 13,23 bearing of trends with the bearing of trend of third electrode plate 12B, 22B; Therefore displacement and the second battery lead plate 12A, 22A and third electrode plate 12B, the 22B displacement of elastomer 13 present certain proportion, make elastomer 13,23 displacements greater than the spacing d between the second battery lead plate 12A, 22A and third electrode plate 12B, the 22B A, d BThe change amount.The physical restriction of scalable elastomer 13, the 23 motion ranges of linearity like this makes the maximum displacement of elastomer 13,23 greater than the spacing distance d between the second battery lead plate 12A, 22A and third electrode plate 12B, the 22B A, d B1/3 times.Calculate according to trigonometric function; The maximum displacement of tolerable elastomer 13,23 is 1/3sin θ a times of spacing distance; θ represents the angle of A direction or B direction and C direction; Therefore the angle that can know A direction and C direction and B direction and C direction is 45 when spending, maximum displacement that can the best amplification elastomer 13,23.
Other please refer to Fig. 6, and it shows the equivalent structure sketch map of the microelectromechanicdevices devices of making according to second embodiment of the invention.In order to save space, the present embodiment and the first embodiment difference part are only described at this.Shown in figure; Second battery lead plate 12A in little sensing module 10 of present embodiment and the arrangement mode of the third electrode plate 12A and the first battery lead plate 11A change to some extent; Make a pair of first battery lead plate 11A is set respectively between the second battery lead plate 12A that the first battery lead plate 11A of the second battery lead plate 12A both sides like this and the second battery lead plate 12A all possibly produce capacitance variation and increase the reliability of system.
Because two little sensing modules are set need be taken than the large-area manufacturing microelectromechanicdevices devices, in order to reduce area occupied, the present invention proposes an embodiment in addition.Please refer to Fig. 7, it shows the sketch map of the microelectromechanicdevices devices of making according to third embodiment of the invention.In order to save space, the present embodiment and the first embodiment difference part are only described at this.Shown in figure, microelectromechanicdevices devices 2 only has a little sensing module 40, and it comprises fixed part 41, moving part 42 and four elastomers 43.Except having a plurality of parallel second battery lead plate 42A and third electrode plate 42B and mass 42E, also have a plurality of the 4th parallel battery lead plate 42C and the 5th battery lead plate 42D in the moving part 42 with enhancing signal.Angle between the bearing of trend of the 4th battery lead plate 42C and the 5th battery lead plate 42D and elastomer 43 bearing of trends is respectively between 6~84 degree.With the second battery lead plate 42A and third electrode plate 43B similarly, number, development length and the arrangement mode of the 4th battery lead plate 42C and the 5th battery lead plate 42D also can be done multiple variation.For example: with the 4th battery lead plate 42C and the 5th battery lead plate 42D, its bearing of trend such as grade can be each other to rightabout or is perpendicular to one another.Arrangement mode also can be done similar variation, repeats no more at this.Contrast in the XY coordinate system of microelectromechanicdevices devices 2 encapsulation time institute's foundations of present embodiment, the bearing of trend of elastomer 43 is parallel to the X of above-mentioned coordinate system, Y reference axis.Owing to there is the angle of 6~84 degree at this moment between the X of the bearing of trend of the second battery lead plate 42A, third electrode plate 43B, the 4th battery lead plate 42C and the 5th battery lead plate 42D on the moving part 42 and XY coordinate system, the Y reference axis; Therefore towards or when deviating from X, Y change in coordinate axis direction; Capacitance between the second battery lead plate 42A, third electrode plate 43B, the 4th battery lead plate 42C and the 5th battery lead plate 42D and the first battery lead plate (not shown) is all non-vanishing and can read virtual value, so can change reading the angular range of effective capacitance value.
Secondly, the treatment circuit 50 of the microelectromechanicdevices devices 2 of present embodiment comprises that the comparing unit (not shown) is electrically connected the second battery lead plate 42A, third electrode plate 42B, the 4th battery lead plate 42C and the 5th battery lead plate 42D, as the usefulness of back end signal processing.In the present embodiment, the capacitance C that reads between corresponding first battery lead plate of comparing unit and the second battery lead plate 42A AAnd the capacitance C that reads between first battery lead plate and the third electrode plate 42B BDifference value produce a signal, and the capacitance C that reads between corresponding first battery lead plate and the 4th battery lead plate 42C CAnd the capacitance C that reads between first battery lead plate and the 5th battery lead plate 42D DDifference value produce another signal, that is:
Signal 1: work as C B>C A, then export 1, otherwise export 0;
Signal 2: work as C C>C D, then export 1, otherwise export 0;
With the foundation of this two signal as XY diaxon position judgment.
Microelectromechanicdevices devices 2 change its in the XY coordinate system placement location and when receiving an acceleration; For instance: the placement location of microelectromechanicdevices devices 2 changes " vertically put, just put " in the XY coordinate system time; Mass 42E can-Y past because of the effect of acceleration direction move, and drive the second battery lead plate 42A, third electrode plate 42B, the 4th battery lead plate 42C and the 5th battery lead plate 42D that connect on it and move toward this direction in the lump.At this moment, for the second battery lead plate 42A, the distance between itself and first battery lead plate becomes big, so capacitance C ADiminish, and the distance between the third electrode plate 42B and first battery lead plate diminishes, so capacitance C BBecome big.Therefore, C B>C A, first signal that comparing unit produces is 1.On the other hand, owing to the distance between the 4th battery lead plate 42C and first battery lead plate diminishes, so capacitance C CBecome big, and the distance between the 5th battery lead plate 42D and first battery lead plate becomes big, so capacitance C DDiminish.Therefore, C C>C D, second signal that comparing unit produces is 1.Therefore transmit the signal of (1,1).
