摘要
A circuit for capacitance measurements is described. The circuit permits offset capacitance compensation using a de voltage. The electronic circuitry with its testing is described. The output voltage is a linear function of the capacitance measured. Experimental data show good agreement with values predicted by the linear formula. Experiments show it is possible to measure capacitance changes with a resolution of a few femtofarads (fF).
