Abstract

An electronic device includes a vibration element having a detection signal electrode and a drive signal electrode, an IC disposed so as to be opposed to the vibration element, a first wiring pattern located between the IC and the vibration element, and electrically connected to the drive signal electrode, and a shield wiring pattern located on the vibration element side of the first wiring pattern, and electrically connected to a constant potential (ground).

Claims (18)

1. An electronic device comprising:

a vibration element including a vibration body and an electrode provided to the vibration body;

a semiconductor substrate disposed so as to be opposed to the vibration element;

a first wiring pattern located between the semiconductor substrate and the vibration element;

a second wiring pattern located between the first wiring pattern and the vibration element, and different in potential from the first wiring pattern; and

a shield wiring pattern disposed at least a part of an area, which is located between the first wiring pattern and the second wiring pattern, and in which the first wiring pattern and the second wiring pattern overlap each other in a planar view, the shield wiring pattern being electrically connected to a constant potential.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein

the vibration body includes a drive vibrating section and a detection vibrating section,

the electrode includes a drive signal electrode disposed in the drive vibrating section and a detection signal electrode disposed in the detection vibrating section, and

one of the first wiring pattern and the second wiring pattern is electrically connected to the drive signal electrode, and the other of the first wiring pattern and the second wiring pattern is electrically connected to the detection signal electrode.

3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein

the shield wiring pattern is grounded.

4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

an insulating layer disposed between the first wiring pattern and the shield wiring pattern.

5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

an insulating layer disposed between the second wiring pattern and the shield wiring pattern.

6. The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein

the insulating layer has elasticity.
