Abstract
A vibrating-type gyroscope element includes a fixed part, a resonator having a vibration mode of cos Nθ (N is a natural number of two or more), support parts, and electrodes. The electrodes are arranged in 4N orientations arranged in an outer circumferential direction of the resonator. The electrodes include at least one primary driving electrode and at least one secondary pickoff electrode. A relationship U≥1 or (S1+S2)−2≥|S1−S2| is satisfied, where S1 is the number of cases where a secondary pickoff electrode is clockwise adjacent to a primary driving electrode, S2 is the number of cases where a secondary pickoff electrode is anticlockwise adjacent to a primary driving electrode, and U is the number of the secondary pickoff electrodes being neither clockwise nor anticlockwise adjacent to a primary driving electrode.
