Abstract

A gyroscope includes a MEMS sensor having a drive signal input terminal, a drive signal output terminal, and a sense signal output terminal. The gyroscope further includes a quadrature demodulator that demodulates a modulated sense signal and offset canceller circuits that cancel a direct current offset component included in an in-phase signal and a quadrature signal of the sense signal. The gyroscope has a quadrature error detector that detects a quadrature error based on the signals input from the offset canceller circuits and outputs an error signal. The gyroscope also has an IQ corrector circuit that receives the in-phase signal and the quadrature signal of the sense signal as inputs, and outputs a phase signal with a phase based on the error signal.
