Some sensors output a processed analog signal that is linear with respect to the physical quantity being measured. Some perform quantization as well and provide a digital output. Though it is easy to ...
Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) represent a mature technology that recently has received renewed interest because of the growth in Internet-of-Things (IoT) activity. MEMS are segmented into ...
Relative humidity, or RH, is the percentage of moisture in the air referenced to the maximum level of moisture the air can hold at that temperature and pressure. Early humidity sensors used natural ...
As discussed in the first part of the article, the accuracy with which sensor capacitance can be measured using absolute capacitance measurement has a significant dependency on the accuracy of the ...
