In vector notation the Coriolis force F
Where m is the mass of the object, v its velocity and
system.
To create a Coriolis Force (F
system has got an electrically actuated oscillating mechanical structure, called primary frame (m).
When the gyroscope rotates ( ) a Coriolis force F
force, a part of the frame - called the secondary frame - is designed to allow a motion as a reaction
to the applied Coriolis force. This synchronous motion is sensed electrically by a capacitive readout
circuit.
The gyroscope is a vibratory system with two orthogonal vibrating frames: the primary actuated
vibrating frame and the secondary sensed vibrating frame.
The bounds within which the circuit output signal may vary as the temperature varies across the
operating temperature range with no applied angular rate.
