Abstract :
Measurement of the temperature coefficient of capacitance involves the measurement of very small changes of relatively large capacitors. Hence a prime requisite for the measuring equipment is a high sensitivity. The “double heterodyne” method illustrated in the attached figure, has a very high sensitivity and can detect changes of 0,001 micromicrofarads in a 1000 micromicrofarad capacitor.
