Planar Position Sensor Based on Mono Sensing Electrode and Hybrid-Frequency Excitation

A new way of measuring planar position for micrometric and sub-micrometric applications is presented with a mono sensing electrode and hybrid-frequency excitation. The sensing theory and operation principle are described and summarized, and a printed circuit board (PCB) sensor prototype is built and...
