Abstract
Our readout integrated circuit (ROIC) for differential capacitive sensors, such as thin-membrane transducer, uses current switching and time-domain based technique to measure the difference between the capacitance of the sensing and reference more rapidly, while maintaining accuracy. The 12-bit ROIC is designed and fabricated in a 0.35μm digital CMOS bulk technology.
