Capacitance-to-Digital converters (cDcs), Interfacing with capacitive sensors
用于电容式传感器的电容转换电路设计技术
演讲内容简介
Capacitive sensors are extensively utilized for loT applications due to their low noise andtemperature dependence. They find can be used to sense a broad range of physical quantities, such aspressure, humidity, acceleration, gas molecules, and proximity. To read out such sensors and extractuseful information, high performance capacitance-to-digital converters (CDCs) are required. Their designis challenging due to the many design tradeoffs that must be made between performance parameterssuch as energy efficiency, sensing resolution, and input range. In this talk, the basic principles ofcapacitive sensors, the design goals and tradeoffs of cDCs, and conventional circuit structures will first bereviewed. Then, more recent and advanced circuit structures and design techniques to improve energyefficiency, sensing resolution, and input range will be presented. Lastly, some future research directionsin the design and application of CDcs will be discussed.

Minkyu Je received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from KAIST, Daejeon, Korea, in 1996, 1998 and 2003, respectively. In 2003, he joined Samsung Electronics, Korea, as a Senior Engineer. From 2006 to 2013, he was with IME, A*STAR, Singapore. From 2011 to 2013, he led the Integrated Circuits and Systems Laboratory at IME as a Department Head. He also served as Program Director of the NeuroDevices Program under A*STAR SERC from 2011 to 2013. He was an Associate Professor at DGIST, Korea, from 2014 to 2015. Since 2016, he has been an Associate Professor in the School of Electrical Engineering at KAIST, Korea. His research includes the development of advanced IC platforms for smart sensor interfaces, low-power wireless communication, high-efficiency energy supply and management, low-power timing, and resource-constrained computing. He also works on microsystem integration, leveraging these IC platforms for emerging applications such as intelligent miniature biomedical devices, ubiquitous wireless sensor nodes, and future mobile devices. He is an editor of one book, an author of seven book chapters, and has more than 430 peer-reviewed international conference and journal publications. He also has more than 80 patents, either issued or filed. He has served on the Technical Program Committee and Organizing Committee of various international conferences, symposiums, and workshops, including IEEE ISSCC, A-SSCC, SOVC, ISCAS, and BioCAS. He was a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE CASS from 2020 to 2022 and is currently serving as an Associate Editor of IEEE TBioCAS. He was awarded the Haedong Semiconductor Engineering Award in 2022 and received the Ministerial Commendation from the Ministry of Science and ICT in 2024.
