Abstract :
Sensors are used in various everyday practices, and therefore, there are different types of sensors suitable for innumerable applications. The type of sensor discussed in this paper is the proximity sensor based on eddy current theory, which measures the distance between the sensor and the target plate with no physical contact [1].
