A Self-Oscillating System to Measure the Conductivity and the Permittivity of Liquids within a Single Triangular Signal

We present a methodology and a circuit to extract liquid resistance and capacitance simultaneously from the same output signal using interdigitated sensing electrodes. The principle consists in the generation of a current square wave and its application to the sensor to create a triangular output vo...
