Abstract
Various embodiments of the invention integrate multiple shock-robust single-axis MEMS gyroscopes into a single silicon substrate while avoiding the complexities typically associated with designing a multi-drive control system for shock immune gyroscopes. In certain embodiments of the invention, a shock immune tri-axial MEMS gyroscope is based on a driving scheme that employs rotary joints to distribute driving forces generated by two sets of driving masses to individual sensors, thereby, simplifying the control of the gyroscope.
