Abstract

This paper describes a high-performance Capacitance-to-Digital Converter (CDC) for sub-nm displacement sensing with an electrically floating target. Intended to be integrated into a displacement sensor probe, the CDC consumes only 560μW. It achieves 98.5dB SNR in a 1ms conversion time, which is 34 times more energy-efficient than the prior art. Moreover, it also offers a 117dB in-band (1kHz) Common-mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR), providing decent electric field interference immunity.
