摘要: Airbag deployment systems demand reliable, inexpensive sensing of deceleration the car during collision. The integrated accelerometer combines a 0.3 mm/sup 2/ micromechanical capacitive element with precision bipolar/MOS control circuitry in 9 area. microstructure is fabricated from layer deposited polysilicon by surface micromachining. This chip an A/V (acceleration-to-voltage) functional block for accelerations 1 to 50 g. paper reviews rationale micromachining element, BiMOS2C process, sense and circuit architecture, performance chip.
