A vibration gyro having high bias stability, and a method of using the gyro for obtaining a precise angular velocity signal by correcting the bias. The gyro has: a drive signal generating part configured to generate a multiplexed drive signal; first and second demodulation circuits configured to generate first and second demodulation signals, respectively; first and second control circuits configured to generate first and second feedback amplitude signals, respectively; a feedback signal generating part configured to generate a first multiplexed feedback signal by multiplexing a first feedback signal obtained by modulating the first feedback amplitude signal at the first frequency, and at least one second feedback signal obtained by modulating the second feedback amplitude signal at the at least one second frequency; and a subtracter configured to output an angular velocity signal by subtracting the second feedback amplitude signal from the first feedback amplitude signal.
A vibration gyro comprising:
A method of using a vibration gyro including drive masses configured to be driven and vibrated and a sense mass configured to be displaced by a Coriolis force generated by an angular velocity, the method comprising the steps of:
