Original Abstract Submitted

A micromechanical sensor system including a rotation rate sensor and a method for operating the system. The rotation rate sensor includes a seismic mass, and a drive device. For driving, the seismic mass is subjected to an offset voltage and a drive voltage. The seismic mass is excited to oscillate using the drive voltage. The rotation rate sensor can selectively be operated in a start-up mode and in an operating mode. The offset voltage during operation of the rotation rate sensor in the start-up mode is different from the offset voltage during operation of the rotation rate sensor in the operating mode, and/or the maximum voltage available from the driver of the drive voltage during operation of the rotation rate sensor in the start-up mode is different from the maximum voltage available during operation of the rotation rate sensor in the operating mode.
