    Abstract

    Prototype of a novel DC voltage reference has been constructed. A characteristic voltage of an electrostatically actuated micromechanical silicon device provides the reference voltage. Its stability relies on elastic properties of monocrystalline silicon. The device is suited for batch fabrication and may prove more stable than Zener voltage references.
