Methodology of Micro-Accelerometer Reliability

Article Preview

Abstract:

The basic analysis methodology of micromachined accelerometer reliability are developed. The reliability of micro-accelerometer system are basically analyzed mathematically based on probability theory, indicating that the fracture strength distribution of accelerometer structure keep to Weibill distribution, and the stress distribution keep to normal distribution. Fracture reliability degree for micromachined accelerometer is defined as the probability that strength is greater than stress. From this, we can predict and evaluate various micro-accelerometer fracture reliability under shock load. The methodology of reliability is also commonly suitable for other MEMS devices.
