This design based on an SR latch and two RC networks is, unlike many alternative solutions, neither complex nor expensive. Single and differential capacitance sensors are widely used to measure linear ...

A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20230314495A1) describes a capacitance measurement circuit that includes an analog front-end circuit, a parasitic capacitor, an analog to digital ...

How to build a circuit that converts capacitance into a pulse train. Test results of the circuit design. The circuit in Figure 1 allows you to convert capacitance into a pulse train by using a ...

Capacitors behave differently than resistors, where resistors allow a flow of electrons through them directly proportional to the voltage drop, and capacitors oppose changes in voltage by drawing or ...

Last month's column covered the behavior of electrical components connected in series and demonstrated that when a voltage is applied across a series circuit, the current through each component is the ...

In 2008, Bob Pease exchanged e-mails with Linear Technology’s Mark Thoren, me, and a few other friends. The subject was how an amplifier will oscillate if you put a capacitive load on it. Bob knew ...
