A micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) magnetometer includes first fixed electrodes, second fixed electrodes, a mobile element to rotate about a first rotation axis along a first direction and translate along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, mobile electrodes extending from the first mobile element and being interdigitated with the first fixed electrodes to form first sensor assemblies, a rotation element coupled to the mobile element to rotate about a second rotation axis along the second direction, the rotation element having a surface opposite the second fixed electrodes to form second sensor assemblies, the second fixed electrode being displaced from the surface of the rotation element along a third direction, and a trace having sections along the first direction and offset from the first rotation axis and along the second direction and offset from the second rotation axis.
