Capacitive Sensors
Capacitive Sensors copyright 6-26-00 L. K. Baxter revised 7-20-00. 1 Introduction Capacitive Sensors can directly sense a variety of things motion, chemical composition, electric field and, indirectly, sense many other variables which can be converted into motion or dielec- tric constant, such as pressure, acceleration, fluid level, and fluid composition. They are built with conductive sensing electrodes in a dielectric, with excitation voltages on the order of five volts and detection circuits which turn a capacitance variation into a voltage, fre- quency, or pulse width variation. The range of application of Capacitive Sensors is extraordinary. Motion detectors can detect 10-14 m displacements with good stability, high speed, and wide extremes of environment, and Capacitive Sensors with large electrodes can detect an automobile and measure its speed Capacitive technology is displacing piezoresistance in silicon implementations of accelerometers and pressure Sensors , and innovative applications lik
Jul 20, 2000 · Direct motion applications are common, with capacitive sensors used for non-contact measure-ment of angle, long-throw linear displacement, and sub-micron plate spacing. Several different arrangements of sensing electrodes are used, depending on the measurement job.
