August 2, 2007 Alps Electric has completed development of the industry’s smallest (4.8mm long x 4.8mm wide x 1.8 mm high) capacitance type pressure sensor to ...

Two tiny ICs and a few passive components can yield a capacitive proximity sensor with excellent sensitivity and extremely fast response time. The circuit’s operation leverages the pulse-front ...

Reading this sensor with a microcontroller is extremely similar to a capacitive touch sensor made out of copper and FR4. All the code is available in a repo, ...

1. Steady switching of output levels occurs when the sensor capacity changes by at least 10%. 2. In the switching transition region, rectangular pulses with a frequency of 12-52 kHz appear at the ...

If you have a project in mind that requires some sort of gesture input or precise movements, it might become a nettlesome problem to tackle. Fear this obstacle no longer: a team from the Wyss Insti… ...

ADI also offers a library of sensor sizes, so manufacturers can customize the shape of capacitance sensors to differentiate their products. In a capacitive touchpad design, sensors consist of ...

Capacitive sensors are able to detect when they are touched without requiring a pressure or movement. Even with AirPods Pro, it's possible to knock them out of your ear so anything that stops you ...
