This paper proposes an interface application-specific-integrated-circuit (ASIC) for micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) vibratory gyroscopes. A closed self-excited drive loop is employed for automatic amplitude stabilization based on peak detection and proportion-integration (PI) controller. A nonlinear multiplier terminating the drive loop is designed for rapid resonance oscillation and linearity improvement. Capacitance variation induced by mechanical motion is detected by a differential charge amplifier in sense mode. After phase demodulation and low-pass filtering an analog signal indicating the input angular velocity is obtained. Non-idealities are further suppressed by on-chip temperature drift calibration. In order for better compatibility with digital circuitry systems, a low passband incremental zoom sigma-delta (ΣΔ) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is implemented for digital output. Manufactured in a standard 0.35 μm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology, the whole interface occupies an active area of 3.2 mm 2 . Experimental results show a bias instability of 2.2 °/h and a nonlinearity of 0.016% over the full-scale range.
