Abstract
We present the design, modeling and characterization
of a 3-phase electrostatic rotary stepper micromotor. The
proposed motor is a monolithic device fabricated using
silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology. The rotor is
suspended with a frictionless flexural pivot bearing and
reaches an unprecedented rotational range of 30° (+/- 15°) at 65 V. We have established a mechanical model of the
deformation structure and performed finite element analysis
(FEA) simulations of the dynamic properties. These studies
are consistent with the extensive experimental characterization performed in the quasi-static, transient, and dynamic regimes.
