Abstract :
Inductively powered telemetric systems are beginning to gain interest in all fields where remote sensing is needed. In such systems power consumption, miniaturization and packaging pose the greatest design problems. In this paper we present a capacitance to frequency converter suitable for working with an already presented telemetric system
