F. Beckmann et al., ANALYSIS OF COMPLEX IMPEDANCES IN CMOS TECHNOLOGY FOR CHEMICAL SENSORAPPLICATIONS, Sensors and actuators. A, Physical, 62(1-3), 1997, pp. 734-738
Many sensors translate a physical quantity into an impedance, Examples
are chemical sensors with a dedicated sensitive layer that changes wi
th the concentration of the interesting species. The concentration of
ethanol/gasoline mixtures, however, fan be directly analysed by the pe
rmittivity of the fluid mixture. The impedance may be analysed with di
fferent methods. This paper presents a new method for impedance analys
is that has been designed with the idea of mixed-signal integration in
mind. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
