FPGA controlled MEMS inclinometer

A FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) controlled inclinometer based on MEMS structures is presented in this paper. Pull-in voltage measurements are used in this work as the transduction mechanism. The pull-in phenomenon is characterized by the sudden loss of stability in electrostatically actuated...
