Capacitive sensors are considered to be far better as compared to the resistive sensing technology due to high accuracy, sensitivity, and absence of wear & tear problem. They are continuously replacing the resistive sensors in most of the applications because of various advantages. All the applications, industry verticals, and their sub segments are discussed in the report. Different operating modes of the capacitive sensors are also discussed in the report. The overall capacitive sensors market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 15% from 2013 to 2018. Projected capacitive technology is preferred in most of the applications as compared to the surface capacitive technology. Projected capacitance is further classified into two types, namely self capacitance and mutual capacitance. Increasing demand of the sensors in the consumer electronics sector and reduction in the size of the sensor are considered to be the major driving factors of the market. Most of the major smartphone manufacturers like Apple (U.S.), Nokia (Finland), and Samsung (South Korea) are using the capacitive touch sensors for the touch screens in the smartphones as well as for the input devices like buttons, sliders, keypads, and touchpads. Capacitive touch sensors are in huge demand for the input devices as compared to the mechanical input devices because the problem of wear & tear is negligible for the capacitive sensing devices. In the retail & medical sector, there is a huge scope for the capacitive sensors in future as these sensors are continuously opting for care monitoring systems and other point-of-sale

As of now, temperature, pressure, torque, and viscosity sensors are the only ones to have reached complete commercialization but we predict a healthy growth of the other sensors as well in future as more applications of acoustic wave sensors get realized in the years to come. Acoustic wave temperature and pressure sensors are increasingly used in automotive and industrial applications with some applications of torque sensors as well. Due to lesser response time, passive nature, and wireless operation, acoustic wave sensors are gradually replacing conventional sensors for a variety of applications such as industrial, automotives, consumer electronics, military and aerospace, and healthcare segments. There has been a growth in the automotive industry that uses sensors to a greater extent from applications such as TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System), engine management, emission control to monitoring of air volume, torque sensing, exhaust gas pressure of EGR system. Adoption of acoustic wave sensors in many application segments will add on to their consumption in the future. Safety related mandates in regions like North America and Europe are driving the growth of sensors in automotive industry. Technological advancement is opening new doors for the growth of acoustic wave sensors especially in automotive and medical applications. Penetration of MEMS technology in acoustic wave sensing in future is expected to play a major role in the overall market in the…

    During last few decades, booming of wireless sensor network (WSN) require a reliable power source. Generally the power sources to these microsystems are the conventional battery. However, the battery has a finite lifespan and once extinguished of its power, these sensors must be retrieved and the battery replaced [1]. With these sensors being placed in remote location it can become an expensive task to obtain and replace the battery. Therefore, it becomes necessary to provide them source, which can provide them energy reliably. Technological developments in the MEMS industry have lead to miniaturization of many of the transducer systems. With this effort, the power consumption of these devices has been reduced to the order of W to mW level. These developments have opened a new source for supplying energy to these micro systems as an alternative to batteries, which have a finite life and are large in size. Researchers are working on alternative energy sources like solar, thermal, acoustics, and vibration. These sources are clean and have theoretically infinite life compared to batteries. Considering implantable and embedded microsystems that should operate and survive on their initial energy supply, these ambient energy sources are attractive alternatives. Among these alternative sources, environmental vibration is particularly attractive because it is almost everywhere in our living environment and can be readily found in the environment in abundance. Through these transducers ambient vibrational energy can be efficiently converted into electrical energy. In this report vibration based scavenging technique like piezoelectric and electromagnetic conversions are explained and how the ambient vibrational energy can be used to charge these microsystems through piezoelectric and electromagnetic transducer. Inspite of development of MEMS industry, there are some of technical limitation of vibration energy harvesting systems which are to be…

    However, in other cases, a non-zero set point may be more appropriate; for example, in temperature-sensing, a reasonable neutral environment might by 0 Celsius or room temperature. As the sensitivity of the system will be greatest at the synchronous frequency, the synchronous frequency accordingly is measured. It should be noted that the electrical input signal should have a frequency equal to the synchronous frequency of the device to maximize efficiency. If the measurand causes the synchronous frequency to shift, a system without feedback control on the input frequency will experience a slight signal attenuation. The important parameters in determining the synchronous frequency of the device is the pitch p of fingers of the IDTs. For simplicity, we shall examine the most common IDT design which utilizes 1:1 interdigitation and equal spacing between all fingers on both sides. The pitch of the fingers is then the spacing between two fingers on the same side of the electrode. As consecutive fingers (alternating sides of the IDT) are always at equal but opposite voltage assuming a sinusoidal (AC) signal, consecutive fingers mark the location of maximal strain alternating between tension and compression. As such, the wavelength of the wave transduced by the piezoelectric substrate will be equal to p. The following…

    Lm35

    The LM35 series are precision integrated-circuit temperature sensors, whose output voltage is linearly proportional to the Celsius (Centigrade) temperature. The LM35 thus has an advantage over linear temperature sensors calibrated in ˚ Kelvin, as the user is not required to subtract a large constant voltage from its output to obtain convenient Centigrade scaling. The LM35 does not require any external calibration or trimming to provide typical accuracies of ±1⁄4˚C at room temperature and ±3⁄4˚C over a full −55 to +150˚C temperature range. Low cost is assured by trimming and calibration at the wafer level. The LM35’s low output impedance, linear output, and precise inherent calibration make interfacing to readout or control circuitry especially easy. It can be used with single power supplies, or with plus and minus supplies. As it draws only 60 µA from its supply, it has very low self-heating, less than 0.1˚C in still air. The LM35 is rated to operate over a −55˚ to +150˚C temperature range, while the LM35C is rated for a −40˚ to +110˚C range (−10˚with improved accuracy). The LM35 series is available packaged in hermetic TO-46 transistor packages, while the LM35C, LM35CA, and LM35D are also available in the plastic TO-92 transistor package. The LM35D is also available in an 8-lead surface mount small outline package and a plastic TO-220 package.…

    Most radio telemetry capsules utilize laboratory type sensors such as glass pH electrodes, resistance thermometers, or moving inductive coils as pressure transducers. The relatively large size of these sensors limits the functional complexity of the pill for a given size of capsule. Adapting existing semiconductor fabrication technologies to sensor development has enabled the production of highly functional units for data collection, while the exploitation of integrated circuitry for sensor control, signal conditioning, and wireless transmission, and has extended the concept of single-channel radio telemetry to remote distributed sensing from microelectronic pills.…
