Abstract

A microactuator comprises an outer stator and an inner rotor electrostatically coupled to a stator. The rotor comprises a suspended mass with a substantially circular shape, and a plurality of mobile arms extending radially towards the exterior, starting from the suspended mass. The stator has a plurality of pairs of fixed arms extending radially to the suspended mass, a respective mobile arm being arranged between each pair of fixed arms. The fixed arms are divided into fixed drive arms connected to a drive stage for actuating the microactuator, and into fixed measure arms connected to a measure stage, and define a capacitive uncoupling structure.
