A compact converter from capacitance to pulse width, suitable for interfacing integrated capacitive sensors is described. The circuit has been designed and fabricated using 0.32 μm/ 3.3 V CMOS devices from the BCD6s process of STMicroelectroncs and occupies an area of 1025 × 515 μm2. Measurements performed on the test chip showed an excellent linearity, a temperature drift of 300 ppm/”C, and power consumption as low as 84 μW for continuous operation.
