A novel architecture for digital control of MEMS gyros

This paper describes a system for implementation of digital feedback loops and digital signal conditioning to control vibrating MEMS gyroscopes. The offset stability is improved since the baseband processing is performed in the digital domain and is thus free from 1/f noise. The algorithms for the digital control loops and the output signal generation are implemented in an FPGA that is connected to the gyro via an interface circuit. This circuit is a configurable analogue ASIC containing high performance capacitive readout amplifiers, /spl Sigma//spl Delta/-modulators and analogue feedback recovery circuits. An evaluation platform based on the digital concept and PC software has been fabricated. Due to the programmability, the platform significantly speeds up the development process of new algorithms and control parameters. It is also a valuable tool when testing new gyro elements. Up till now, the system has been evaluated with two different butterfly gyros presently with a lowest resolution of 0.005 deg/s//spl radic/Hz. However, it can be used with other capacitive/electrostatic gyros as well.
