Pressurecapacitive
Pressure-capacitive sensors are devices that measure pressure by detecting changes in capacitance. They consist of a flexible diaphragm that deforms under pressure, altering the distance between two conductive plates. This change in distance affects the capacitance, which can be measured and converted into a pressure value. Pressure-capacitive sensors are known for their high sensitivity, fast response time, and wide dynamic range. They are commonly used in applications such as automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics, where accurate and reliable pressure measurement is required. The sensors can be designed to measure both absolute and differential pressure, and they can be integrated into various forms, including MEMS (Microelectromechanical Systems) technology, for miniaturization and cost-effectiveness.
