Title:
CAPACITANCE MEASURING SYSTEM AND METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/026794
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A system (100) operable between a charging mode and a transferring mode for measuring capacitance of a capacitive sensor (10), includes a switching unit (102) configured to arrange the capacitive sensor (10) to be charged by a first supply voltage (14a) from a first end (10a) of the capacitive sensor (10) until a voltage difference between the first end (10a) and an opposite second end (10b) of the capacitive sensor (10) reaches a first predetermined voltage in a first phase of the charging mode, and disconnect the first end (10a) of the capacitive sensor (10) from the first supply voltage (14a ) and couple the second end (10b) of the capacitive sensor (10) to a second supply voltage (14b) to raise a voltage at the first end (10a) of the capacitive sensor (10) to a second predetermined voltage in a second phase of the charging mode.
