Title
A pseudo-differential charge balanced ratiometric readout system for capacitive inertial sensors
Abstract
This paper presents an open loop readout circuit technique for capacitive inertial sensors using a charge balanced and ratiometric approach. The charge balance is achieved through a delta-sigma loop allowing for direct analog-to-digital conversion at comparatively lower power. Techniques for achieving differential implementation, noise and offset cancellation are also discussed in lieu of the limitations of the physical front end.
