  • Patent number: 8516890
    Abstract: An acceleration sensor having a substrate, at least one web, and a seismic mass, the web and the seismic mass being situated over a plane of the substrate. The seismic mass is situated on at least two sides of the web and elastically suspended on the web. The web is anchored on the substrate with the aid of at least one anchor. At least one anchor is situated outside the center of gravity of the seismic mass.

  • Publication number: 20090282914
    Abstract: A micromechanical acceleration sensor has a substrate, a suspension, a seismic mass, and stationary capacitive electrodes, which seismic mass is suspended over the substrate with the aid of the suspension. The seismic mass has a mass center of gravity, and the suspension has at least two anchors on the substrate, the at least two anchors being situated next to the mass center of gravity at a distance which is small compared to a horizontal extension of the seismic mass. The stationary capacitive electrodes are provided in recesses of the seismic mass. The seismic mass directly surrounds the suspension.
