Abstract

A rotation rate sensor including a substrate, a drive structure, which is movable with regard to the substrate, a detection structure, and a Coriolis structure, the drive structure, the Coriolis structure, and the detection structure being essentially situated in a layer, in that an additional layer is situated essentially in parallel to the layer above or underneath the layer, a mechanical connection between the Coriolis structure and the drive structure being established with a first spring component, the first spring component being configured as a part of the additional layer, and/or a mechanical connection between the detection structure and the substrate being established with a second spring component, the second spring component being configured as a part of the additional layer.
