Capacitive-Based Liquid Level Sensing Sensor Reference Design
Description
This reference design: which uses FDC1004EVM: provides robust and accurate capacitive-based liquid level sensing. TIDA-00317 demonstrates the sensor design and configuration setup to mitigate parasitic capacitance interference from the system environment.
Features
- Liquid-level sensing using capacitive sensing technologyReduces parasitic interference from the system environmentRigid-flex circuit allows the sensors to be placed on various surface shapesLiquid height resolution of Includes the environmental reference sensor to help compensate for environmental changesDeveloped to be paried with FDC1004EVM and FDC1004EVM GUI
Applications
- 3D printer
- Level transmitter
- Residential water heater
- Heat pump
