  2. Capacitive sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_sensing

    Mutual capacitive sensors have a capacitor at each intersection of each row and each column. A 12-by-16 array, for example, would have 192 independent capacitors. A voltage is applied to the rows or columns. Bringing a finger or conductive stylus near the surface of the sensor changes the local electric field which reduces the mutual capacitance.

  3. Capacitance probe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance_probe

    Each capacitor sensor consists of two metal rings mounted on the circuit board at some distance from the top of the access tube. These rings are a pair of electrodes, which form the plates of the capacitor with the soil acting as the dielectric in between. The plates are connected to an oscillator, consisting of an inductor and a capacitor. The ...

  4. Capacitive displacement sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_displacement_sensor

    Capacitive displacement sensors share many similarities to eddy current (or inductive) displacement sensors; however capacitive sensors use an electric field as opposed to the magnetic field used by eddy current sensors [10] [11] This leads to a variety of differences between the two sensing technologies, with the most notable differences being ...

  5. Force-sensing capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force-sensing_capacitor

    A force-sensing capacitor is a material whose capacitance changes when a force, pressure or mechanical stress is applied. They are also known as "force-sensitive capacitors". They can provide improved sensitivity and repeatability compared to force-sensitive resistors [1] but traditionally required more complicated electroni

  6. Bubble sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_sensor

    C =εA/d (1) Where ε is the permittivity of the dielectric medium, A is the cross sectional area of the electrodes and d is the distance between them. Liquids have a higher dielectric constant than gas; when an air bubble is in a fluid-filled tube the capacitance is reduced and the output voltage rises. [ 3 ]

  7. Charge-coupled device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge-coupled_device

    In a CCD image sensor, pixels are represented by p-doped metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) capacitors.These MOS capacitors, the basic building blocks of a CCD, [1] are biased above the threshold for inversion when image acquisition begins, allowing the conversion of incoming photons into electron charges at the semiconductor-oxide interface; the CCD is then used to read out these charges.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance–voltage...

    Once devices have been fully fabricated, C–V profiling is often used to characterize threshold voltages and other parameters during reliability and basic device testing and to model device performance. C–V measurements are done by using capacitance–voltage meters of Electronic Instrumentation.
