A Time-Based Electronic Front-End for a Capacitive Particle Matter Detector

This paper introduces the electronic interface for a capacitive airborne particle matter detector. The proposed circuit relies on two matched ring oscillators and a mixer to detect the frequency difference induced by the deposition of a particle onto an interdigitated capacitor, which constitutes th...
