Abstract

The invention discloses a MEMS gyroscope, including a substrate, a first unit and a second unit, and the first unit and the second unit are relatively arranged on the substrate along the first direction. The first unit is connected to the second unit through a coupling spring, and the substrate is also provided with a driving electrode and a detection electrode. The first unit includes a first weight and a second weight. The second unit includes the third weight and the fourth weight set oppositely along the second direction. The second set of coupling structures are connected to the third weight and fourth weight. Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of the present invention is that the MEMS gyroscope adopts a symmetrical layout, which facilitates the realization of differential detection and improves the sensitivity.
