摘要: A built-in self-test technique for MEMS that is applicable to symmetrical microstructures described. combination of existing layout features and additional circuitry used make measurements from symmetrically-located points. In addition the normal sense output, outputs are detect presence asymmetry caused by local, hard-to-detect defects. Simulation results an accelerometer reveal our approach able distinguish misbehavior resulting local defects manufacturing process variations.
