Abstract: Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) in consumer electronics are growing faster each year,
with increasing demands from the mobile market, which is dominating the growth for this emerging
technology. MEMS sensors are, in fact, becoming the key elements in designing differentiating products for
consumer and mobile markets like game consoles, smartphones, and tablets. MEMS give the user a new
way to interface with their smart device. This paper is an overview of MEMS: the principle of their operation,
the sensing mechanism, and a variety of potential applications.
A similar version of this article appeared March 2014 in EDN.
Introduction
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) combine mechanical and electrical components into small
structures in the micrometer scale. They are formed by a combination of semiconductor and
microfabrication technologies using micro machine processing to integrate all the electronics, sensors, and
mechanical elements onto a common silicon substrate. Major components in any MEMS system are the
mechanical elements, sensing mechanism, and the ASIC or a microcontroller. This article presents an
overview of MEMS accelerometer sensors and gyroscopes. We discuss the principles of their operation,
their sensing mechanism, the growing variety of applications for them, and the profound impact they are
already having on our daily lives.
MEMS as Inertial Sensors
MEMS sensors have many applications in measuring either linear acceleration along one or several axis, or
angular motion about one or several axis as an input to control a system (Figure 1).

Figure 1. Angular versus linear motion.
All MEMS accelerometer sensors commonly measure the displacement of a mass with a position-
measuring interface circuit. That measurement is then converted into a digital electrical signal through an
nalog-to-digital converter (ADC) for digital processing. Gyroscopes, however, measure both the
displacement of the resonating mass and its frame because of the Coriolis acceleration.
Basic Accelerometer Operation
Newton’s Second law of motion says that the acceleration (m/s ) of a body is directly proportional to, and in
he same direction as, the net force (Newton) acting on the body, and inversely proportional to its mass
(gram).
Acceleration = Force (Newton)
(m/s ) Mass (gram)
(Eq. 1)
It is important to note that acceleration creates a force that is captured by the force-detection mechanism of
the accelerometer. So the accelerometer really measures force, not acceleration; it basically measures
acceleration indirectly through a force applied to one of the accelerometer's axes.
An accelerometer is also an electromechanical device, including holes, cavities, springs, and channels, that
is machined using microfabrication technology. Accelerometers are fabricated in a multilayer wafer process,
measuring acceleration forces by detecting the displacement of the mass relative to fixed electrodes.
The Accelerometer's Sensing Mechanism
A common sensing approach used in accelerometers is capacitance sensing in which acceleration is related
to change in the capacitance of a moving mass (Figure 2). This sensing technique is known for its high
accuracy, stability, low power dissipation, and simple structure to build. It is not prone to noise and variation
with temperature. Bandwidth for a capacitive accelerometer is only a few hundred Hertz because of their
physical geometry (spring) and the air trapped inside the IC that acts as a damper.

Figure 2. Moving mass and capacitance.
The capacitance can either be arranged as single-sided or a differential pair. Let’s look at accelerometers
arranged as a differential pair (Figure 3). It is composed of a single movable mass (one planar surface),
that is placed along with a mechanical spring between two, fixed, reference silicon substrates or electrodes
(another planar surface). It is obvious that the movement of the mass (Motion x) is relative to the fixed
electrodes (d1 and d2), and causes a change in capacitances (C1 and C2). By calculating the difference
between C2 and C1 we can derive the displacement of our mass and its direction.
Figure 3. Acceleration associated with a single moving mass.
The displacement of the movable mass (micrometer) is caused by acceleration, and it creates an extremely
small change in capacitance for proper detection (Equation 1). This mandates using multiple movable and
fixed electrodes, all connected in a parallel configuration. The configuration enables a greater change in
capacitance, which can both be detected more accurately, and ultimately makes capacitance sensing a
more feasible technique.
