Hello!
I want to measure the capacity of a sensor, but the sensor needs to be measured at around 10kHz. The sensor has a capacity of 300 - 600 pF.
I tried changing the values of L and C to 1µF and 100µH, which should give me a resonance frequency of 15,9 kHz but the Software then tells me
that my sensor capacity is a negative number.
Which values for L and C would you recommend using to measure 300 to 600 pF at around 10 or 20 kHz? The datasheet mentions that 20 kHz can be achieved by using a 1mH coil,
but is it also possible to raise the parallel capacitance to get the desired resonance frequency?
Kind Regards,
Reichel Robert
