Abstract
A microelectromechanical gyroscope includes a drive loop having a drive element and a drive loop circuitry. The drive loop circuitry includes a clock generating circuitry for generating from the quadrature-phase detection signal a test clock signal, an angular rate phase demodulation signal and a quadrature phase demodulation signal. A sense loop includes a sense element and sense loop circuitry for detecting angular rate and producing a force-feedback signal. A test signal generator receives a quadrature-phase detection signal to be used as a quadrature-phase carrier signal and the test clock signal A summing element sums a test signal with the force-feedback signal to form a sense feedback signal. A rate phase demodulator produces a rate signal by demodulating a sense signal received from the sense loop with the angular rate phase demodulation signal, and a quadrature-phase demodulator produces a quadrature-phase output signal.
