METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROL AND READOUT OF TUNING FORK GYROSCOPE

A tuning fork sensor system places a controlled bias on the proof-mass drive-axis electrodes to cancel the quadrature charge.. Also, its charge amplifiers employ a field-effect transistor biased slightly into the triode region so that it behaves as a very large value resistor. In addition, it uses a...

Zusammenfassung:A tuning fork sensor system places a controlled bias on the proof-mass drive-axis electrodes to cancel the quadrature charge.. Also, its charge amplifiers employ a field-effect transistor biased slightly into the triode region so that it behaves as a very large value resistor. In addition, it uses a phase-locked loop having a special loop filter in order to optimize performance by rejecting off-frequency drive feedthrough to the motor pick-off while resulting in very low phase wander for the demodulation references.
