Fabriaction of bump bounded piezoresistive silicon accelerometer

범프 본딩된 압저항 실리콘 가속도센서의 제조

Bump bonded piezoesistive silicon accelerometer was fabricated by the porous silicon micromachining and th eprocess technique of integrated circuit. The output voltage of the accelerometer fabricated on (111)-oreiented Si substrates with n/n$^{+}$n triple layers showed good linear characteristic of less than 1%. The measured sensitivity and the resonant frequency was about 743 .mu.V/g and 2.04 kHz, respectively. And the transverse sensitivity of 5.2% was measured from the accelerometer. Also, to investigate an influence on the output characteristics of the sensor due to bump bonding, the values of the piezoresistors were measured through thermal-cycling test in the temperature variation form -50 to 120.deg. C. Then, there was 0.014% resistance changes about 3.61 k.ohm., so sthe output charcteristics of the sensor was less affected by bump bonding.g.
