Capacitive sensor interfaces are critical to the accurate measurement of physical parameters such as pressure, humidity, and force across a broad range of applications including biomedical devices, ...

Capacitive sensors are typically cost-effective and deliver low-power performance features aligned with today’s trends for consumer and industrial applications. Capacitive sensors are cost effective ...

Capacitive sensing has emerged as a promising non-contact approach for acquiring biopotential signals such as electrocardiograms and electrodermal activity. Unlike conventional methods that rely on ...

Capacitive-sensing buttons are emerging as a popular interface alternative to mechanical switches in many consumer electronics and “white goods” applications. However, designing a capacitive-sensing ...

Capacitive sensing techniques are enjoying a sudden spurt in popularity, mainly because they offer low cost, relatively easy assembly, and a cleaner, more modern look than mechanical buttons and ...

University of Bath researchers have created a lactic acid sensor using double-layer capacitance created when a particular sensitive molecule is attached to a graphene-like porous electrode structure ...

ETH Zurich has created a yarn whose capacitance varies significantly with the movement of the textile it is woven into. The researchers “integrated it into a pair of athletic leggings”, according to ...

Capacitive touch sensors have made homes i n scores of MP3 players and mobile phones. Of course, the mobile arena is no longer the only bastion for these devices. Today, sensor technology has ...

When it comes to touchpads, most OEMs buy complete subassemblies from outside vendors, essentially subcontracting the electronic design as well as the assembly. The AD7142 capacitance-to-digital ...
