“…Hence, they are required to be tested under mechanical shock to ensure their survivability in various hostile environments. Several works have been published studying the reliability of MEMS devices under mechanical shock: They attempted on investigating experimentally the effect of shock loads on several MEMS devices such as sensors (Baselta at al., 2003;Sundaram et al, 2011), resonators (Kazinczi et al, 2002;Kurth et al, 2008), accelerometers (Ghaffarian et al, 2002;Currano et al, 2008;, Ghisi et al, 2008Walter, 2008;Wang and Li, 2010), microcantilever switches (Robinson et al, 1987;Fang et al, 2004;Sheehy et al, 2009), converters, magnetometers, microphones, and gyroscopes (Yee et al, 2002, Nouira et al, 2007Yang et al, 2010;Vahdat et al, 2011). Other groups attempting to control MEMS devices under variable loadings (Shin et al, 2009;Alsaleem and Younis, 2010), whereas others used the combined effect of shock impulse with electrostatic loading to suggest a MEMS shock/acceleration threshold sensor (Frobenius et al, 1972;Loke et al, 1991;Man et al, 1994;Go et al, 1996;Noetzel et al, 1996;Tonnesen et al, 1997;Wycisk et al, 2000;Selvakumar, 2001;Matsunaga and Esashi, 2002;McNamara and Gianchandani, 2004;Jia et al, 2007;Guo et al, 2011).…”
