Abstract: The present invention discloses a monolithic z-axis torsional CMOS MEMS accelerometer, it includes a matching frame, two anchors, a first comb structure, a second comb structure and a proof mass. With the implementation of the present invention, the capacitance sensitivity of Z+ direction and Z− direction sensing signals by the accelerometer can be improved. On the other hand, due to the feasibility of applying micromachining etch processes from the top side, the ease and the yield of production are both promoted.

Abstract: A signal error calibrating method is disclosed herein and includes following steps: filtering an error voltage in a sensor by a low pass filter in a calibration mode; converting the offset voltage to be a digital offset signal by an analog digital signal converter; converting the digital offset signal to be an offset calibrating signal by a digital analog signal converter; transmitting the offset calibrating signal to an input end of the sensor so as to offset an error voltage at the input end of the sensor. After calibrating the error voltage, the analog digital converter in the error calibrating circuit can be used for the need of signal output and the low pass filter is turned off at the same time.
