A Novel MEMS Magnetic Field Sensor with a Torsional Pendulum Structure

A novel MEMS magnetic field sensor based on a torsional pendulum structure is presented. The amplitude of the vibration, which is proportional to the magnetic field, is detected by sensing capacitors. The measuring range of the sensor is designed to vary from 0.2T to 2T. The excitation of the resonator is achieved by the Lorentz force generated by a sinusoidal current flowing through a metal coil, which is deposited on the surface of the structure. The resonance frequencies and modes of the resonators are simulated by the general purpose finite element program, with the frequency of the first mode being 28.26kHz.. Furthermore, the manufacture process of the sensor is proposed to illustrate the feasibility of the device.
