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 ...

With the new capaNCDT CSH/SE sensors, Micro-Epsilon is expanding its portfolio of capacitive displacement sensors with ...

Capacitive sensing interfaces detect and quantify changes in capacitance induced by variations in geometry, dielectric properties or proximity of target objects. Core to these interfaces is an ...

When your residence has soil moisture sensors embedded that were dictated by your friendly neighborhood HoA, you may start asking questions about the system used. That’s what [Modest Maker] did and ...

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 ...

Design of the laser speckle exposure system. Schematic representation of the laser speckle exposure system, comprising the UV laser, shutter, beam expander, mirror, convex lens, engineering diffuser, ...

How to select accurate, reliable sensor technology for high and ultra‑high vacuum applications across industry.

[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The ...

The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS) is a gesture sensitive functional textile touch-pad interface for physical devices. The CTS is produced as a single piece of fabric requiring only two electrodes to ...

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 ...
