    Abstract

    The paper presents an analytical model of a micromachined electromagnetic inductive contactless suspension, which describes the dynamics of a levitated disk shaped proof mass in space, near an equilibrium point. The proof mass is levitated in an electromagnetic field created by a ring shaped coil. The model derives from the analysis of the set of Lagrange - Maxwell equations obtained for the proof mass - coil system in a general form. Also the condition for the stable levitation of the proof mass in space is developed and expressed in terms of coefficients of the quadratic form of a function of mutual inductance between the disk shaped proof mass and ring shaped coil.
