    Abstract: A micromechanical device, in particular a micromirror device. The device has at least one first micromechanical component and one second micromechanical component. The first component and the second component are directly or indirectly joined to one another. The first micromechanical component has a first sub-body and at least one second sub-body. The first sub-body extends in a first plane and the second sub-body in a second plane different from the first plane. The first plane and the second plane extend parallel to one another and the first plane extends above the second plane. The second sub-body is arranged in a transitional region to the second micromechanical component. A second extent of the second sub-body in the longitudinal direction is greater than a first extent of the first sub-body in the longitudinal direction.

    Abstract: A method for operating a capacitive device. The method includes providing a pulsed readout signal having a pulse frequency at a readout signal channel, to which at least one capacitor unit of the capacitive device is electrically connected, and reading out the at least one capacitor unit of the capacitive device, which has a natural frequency with a natural frequency period duration tres, using the pulsed readout signal. Each voltage pulse of the pulsed readout signal is applied to the readout signal channel in n temporally offset voltage stages, n being a natural number greater than or equal to 2, and a time offset Δti is maintained between each two consecutively applied voltage stages in such a way that the following is true for at least one time offset Δti between the voltage stages: Δ ⁢ ⁢ t i = m * t res + t res n , m being a natural number greater than or equal to zero.

    Abstract: A micromechanical component. The micromechanical component includes: a mount; a displaceable part; and a first serpentine spring and a second serpentine spring which is embodied mirror-symmetrically with respect to the first serpentine spring in terms of a first plane of symmetry; a first actuator device and a second actuator device being embodied in such a way that by way of the first actuator device and the second actuator device, periodic deformations, mirror-symmetrical in terms of the first plane of symmetry, of the first serpentine spring and of the second serpentine spring are excitable; the micromechanical component also encompassing a first torsion spring and a second torsion spring that each extend along a rotation axis; and the displaceable part being displaceable, at least by way of the periodic and mirror-symmetrical deformations of the first serpentine spring and of the second serpentine spring, around the rotation axis with respect to the mount.
