MEMS-TYPE INERTIAL SENSOR WITH SPECIFIC MECHANICAL LINK

A micro-electromechanical device of the inertial sensor type, includes a support, a movable frame, translationally guided along an axis of displacement parallel to the support, and including a proof mass which extends from a first end, connected to the support through a mechanical link, up to a second end, the mass being connected, on the side of the second end, to a member for detecting pivoting of the mass with respect to the frame. The link includes a thin, flexible wall which extends parallel to the support, from the frame to the first end of the proof mass, along a mean line which is parallel to the axis of displacement of the frame.
