Abstract:
1. A micromechanical structure, comprising: a substrate; a mass having a main extension in a plane suspended above said substrate, the plane having a first direction and a second direction, the mass having: a first pair of fixed electrodes formed on the substrate, the first pair of fixed electrodes configured to extend into the first one of the second openings to interact with the first mobile electrode; coupling elastic elements; anchorages attached to the substrate; elastic anchorage elements; a frame element, elastically coupled to said mass by the coupling elastic elements and coupled to the anchorages by the elastic anchorage elements, said coupling elastic elements and said anchorage elastic elements are configured to enable a first inertial movement of said mass in response to a first external acceleration in the first direction, and to enable a second inertial movement of said mass in response to a second external acceleration in a third direction transverse to said plane.
