Accelerometer

View page
US Patent:
52338738, Aug 10, 1993
Filed:
Jul 3, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/725844
Inventors:
Mark D. Mozgowiec - Boston MA
Kai L. Keasey - Somerville MA
Steven Beringhause - N. Attleboro MA
Assignee:
Texas Instruments Incorporated - Dallas TX
International Classification:
G01P 102
US Classification:
73497
Abstract:
An accelerometer device particularly adapted for use in automotive safety air bag applications comprises an electrically insulating substrate having electrically conducting circuit paths, signal conditioning circuit components, and an accelerometer unit mounted thereon, the substrate being fixed in position on three pins within a housing. The accelerometer comprises a silicon mass movable in a silicon body relative to an integral silicon support to provide strain in the silicon body in response to acceleration and has piezoresistive sensors formed in the silicon body to be responsive to that strain to provide an electrical signal corresponding to the acceleration. A member having a selected configuration and thermal response characteristics suspends the accelerometer unit on the substrate with the piezoresistive sensors connected to the circuit paths with the piezoresistive sensors isolated from strain in the silicon body due to differences in thermal expansion between the silicon body, and the substrate during temperature changes likely to be encountered.
