Abstract
A microelectromechanical sensor device has a detection structure, having: a substrate, with a top surface; an inertial mass, suspended above the top surface of the substrate and elastically coupled to a rotor anchor so as to perform an inertial movement relative to the substrate as a function of a quantity to be detected; and stator electrodes, integrally coupled to the substrate at respective stator anchors and capacitively coupled to the inertial mass so as to generate a differential capacitive variation in response to, and indicative of, the quantity to be detected. In particular, the inertial mass performs, as the inertial movement, a translation movement along a vertical axis orthogonal to the top surface of the substrate; and the stator electrodes are arranged in a suspended manner above the top surface of the substrate.
