Abstract:
A sensor module includes a support member having a first flat surface, a second flat surface orthogonally connected to the first flat surface, a third flat surface orthogonally connected to the first flat surface and the second flat surface, and a fourth flat surface opposed to the first flat surface as an attachment surface to an external member, the first flat surface having a support surface depressed from the first flat surface, IC chips having connection terminals on active surface sides with inactive surface sides along the active surfaces respectively attached to the respective surfaces of the support member, and vibration gyro elements having connection electrodes, and the vibration gyro elements are provided on the active surface sides of the IC chips and the connection electrodes are attached to the connection terminals of the IC chips so that principal surfaces are respectively along the respective surfaces of the support member.
Abstract:
A sensor module includes a supporting member having three support faces orthogonal to one another, three IC chips each having connection terminals and external connection terminals on the side thereof where an active face is located, the three IC chips attached to the support faces of the supporting member on the sides thereof where passive faces lying along the active faces are located, three vibrating gyro elements each having a base, vibrating arms extending from the base, and connection electrodes, and flexible wiring substrates connected to the external connection terminals of the IC chips, each vibrating gyro element is disposed on the side of the IC chip where the active face is located, the connection electrodes are attached to the connection terminals of each IC chip such that one principal surface lies along the support face, and the flexible wiring substrate has a reinforcing layer.
