The reliability analysis of MEMS gyroscope under long-term operating condition has become an urgent requirement with the enlargement of its application scope and the requirement of good durability. In this study we propose a lifetime prediction method for MEMS gyroscope based on accelerated degradation tests (ADTs) and acceleration factor model. Firstly, the degradation characteristic (bias instability) is extracted based on Allan variance. The effect of temperature stress on the degradation rate of bias instability is analyzed, and it shows that the degradation rate of bias instability would increase with the increase of the temperature. Secondly, the ADTs of MEMS gyroscope are designed and conducted, the degradation model of MEMS gyroscope is established based on the output voltage of MEMS gyroscope and Allan variance. Finally, the acceleration factor model of MEMS gyroscope under temperature stress is derived, and the lifetime of the MEMS gyroscope is predicted based on two group tests data under high stress level. The results show that the lifetime calculated by the acceleration factor model and mean lifetime under high stress levels is close to the mean lifetime calculated by the linear equation at normal temperature stress.

Analiza niezawodności żyroskopu MEMS w warunkach długotrwałej pracy stała się pilną koniecznością wraz z rozszerzeniem zakresu jego zastosowania i wprowadzeniem wymogu dobrej trwałości. W niniejszym artykule, zaproponowano metodę prognozowania czasu pracy żyroskopu MEMS w oparciu o testy przyspieszonej degradacji i model współczynnika przyspieszenia. W pierwszej kolejności, wyznaczono charakterystykę degradacji (niestabilność wskazań) na podstawie wariancji Allana. Analizowano wpływ naprężenia cieplnego na szybkość degradacji w zakresie niestabilności wskazań. Analiza wykazała, że szybkość degradacji wzrastała wraz ze wzrostem temperatury. Następnie, opracowano i przeprowadzono testy przyspieszonej degradacji żyroskopu MEMS, a model jego degradacji ustalono na podstawie napięcia wyjściowego żyroskopu i wariancji Allana. Na koniec, wyprowadzono model współczynnika przyspieszenia dla żyroskopu MEMS w warunkach naprężenia cieplnego, a żywotność żyroskopu prognozowano na podstawie danych z dwóch testów grupowych przeprowadzonych w warunkach wysokiego naprężenia. Wyniki pokazują, że czas pracy obliczony na podstawie modelu współczynnika przyspieszenia i średni czas pracy przy wysokich poziomach naprężeń są zbliżone do średniego czasu pracy obliczonego na podstawie równania liniowego przy normalnym naprężeniu cieplnym.
