A gyro sensor includes: a spring having an inner span beam connected to an outer span beam via a turnaround beam; and a fixed driver that laterally faces the outer beam. A first beam is provided to the structure side of the outer beam so as to face the outer beam. T1 is a width of a space between the outer beam and the structure, T2 is a width of a space between the inner and outer beams, and T2<T1.

A three-axis MEMS gyroscope includes a substrate, a sensing unit connected with the substrate, and a driving unit driving the sensing unit to move. The substrate includes anchor point structures and coupling structures connected with the anchor point structures. The driving unit includes driving pieces. One ends of each of the driving pieces are elastically connected with an adjacent coupling structure. The sensing unit includes X and Y mass blocks and Z mass blocks. Each of the X and Y mass blocks is arranged in a corresponding avoiding space. The X and Y mass blocks are respectively connected with adjacent coupling structures to form a rectangular frame. The Z mass blocks are connected with the driving pieces and separately arranged on one side of each driving piece away from each anchor point structure. The three-axis MEMS gyroscope is differentially driven, which realizes differential detection and reduces quadrature error.

Columnar multi-axis microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices (such as gyroscopes) balanced against undesired linear and angular vibration are described herein. In some embodiments, the columnar MEMS device may comprise at least two multiple-mass columns, each having at least three proof masses and being configured to sense rotation about a respective axis. The motion and mass of the proof masses may be controlled to achieve linear and rotational balancing of the MEMS device. The columnar MEMS device may further comprise one or more modular drive structures disposed alongside each multiple-mass column to facilitate displacement of the proof masses of a respective column. The MEMS devices described herein may be used to sense roll, yaw, and pitch angular rates.

A micromachined gyroscope and an electronic product are provided. The micromachined gyroscope includes a driving component, a detecting component, first connecting components, and second connecting components. The driving component includes first driving pieces, second driving pieces, and driving devices driving the first driving pieces and the second driving piece to move. The detecting component includes first detecting pieces arranged along a third direction, second detecting pieces arranged along a fourth direction, and detecting devices for detecting movement distances of the first detecting pieces and/or the second detecting pieces along a fifth direction.
