Plessey Semiconductors Electric Potential
Integrated Circuit (EPIC) product line targets a
range of applications.
The PS25405B is an ultra high impedance
non-contact solid state electric potential
sensor. It can be used to detect field
disturbance due to the movement of a near-by
object. This functionality can be employed in
a range of applications including security
motion sensors and non-contact electric
switches for lighting, door opening, toys etc
The device uses active feedback techniques to
both lower the effective input capacitance of the
sensing element (Cin) and boost the input
resistance (Rin). These techniques are used to
realise a sensor with a frequency response
suitable for remote sensing applications.
