Abstract

Microelectromechanical sensor with an out-of-plane detection has a cross sensitivity in a first direction in the plane with a value of ST, the sensor comprising a support, a mass suspended from the support by beams stressed by bending, in such a way that the inertial mass is capable of moving with respect to the support about an axis of rotation contained in a plane of the sensor, a stress gauge suspended between the mass and the support. The bending beams have a dimension tf in the out-of-plane direction and the mass has a dimension tM in the out-of-plane direction such that Larm is the distance between the centre of gravity of the mass and the centre of the bending beams projected onto the first direction.
