SPREAD ACQUISITION AND MEASUREMENT OF CAPACITANCE SENSORS AND RELATED SYSTEMS, METHODS AND DEVICES

Abstract:

Embodiments of the disclosure relate, generally, to techniques for parallel acquisition and measurements and related circuits, systems and devices that implement those techniques. A technique for parallel acquisition and measurement generally includes simultaneously acquiring sensed signals from multiple sensor channels and determining which sensed signal of the acquired sensed signals has the largest relative contribution to a measurement.
