Abstract
A summary of a comprehensive analysis of theoretical and practical aspects of position sensing by charge division from resistive electrodes is presented. Properties of transformer decoupling of the resistive electrode from detection bias voltage are analyzed and compared to the usual capacitive decoupling methods. Optimization and limitation of signal shaping is discussed as a function of diffusion time constant, signal rise times, and noise.
