| Summary: | As the initial energetic device and driving force of weapon systems, pyrotechnics serve as the core and most sensitive explosive initiating device of weaponry. To accommodate the development requirements of various informatized and miniaturized weapons, MEMS pyrotechnics, characterized primarily by energy conversion informatization, structural miniaturization, and train integration, have become a significant direction in the development of pyrotechnics technology. MEMS Safety and Arming Devices, serving as the energy transfer control mechanisms for micro-explosive trains in MEMS pyrotechnics, are one of the key technologies in the design of MEMS pyrotechnics. This study conducted a classification study of a silicon-based MEMS Safety and Arming Device from the perspective of micro-explosive train structures, analyzed the technical principles of different S&A device, explored their application progress and research status, and summarizes the trends of the micro-miniaturization, integration, and informatization of the silicon-based MEMS Safety and Arming Device, providing new ideas for the research and the design of MEMS Safety and Arming Devices. |
