Patent ID: 6993969

Claim:
An oscillation type of micro gyro sensor, comprising: two vibrators each having an individual resonance frequency and having a plurality of movable electrodes disposed on both sides of each vibrator in a specified direction; a pair of monitoring electrodes disposed to monitor vibration of only one of the two vibrators to output a signal indicative of the monitored vibration and disposed to be opposed, with a gap, to part of the movable electrodes on both sides of the only one of the two vibrators respectively in the specified direction, the gap forming a capacitance having changes which are reflected in the signal from the monitoring electrodes; a pair of driving electrodes disposed to be opposed to part of the movable electrodes on both sides of each of the two vibrators respectively in the specified direction, the pair of driving electrodes driving each of the two vibrators responsively to two driving signals of mutually opposite phases; a signal processor receiving the signal from the pair of monitoring electrodes to provide the two driving signals to be sent respectively to the pair of driving electrodes of each of the two vibrators, by using the signal received from the pair of monitoring electrodes.
