Overview

Description

This demonstration kit measures the water level with a one-channel self-capacitance electrode and a one-channel shield electrode using a Renesas capacitive touch key solution. Electrodes and liquid tanks need to be GND shielded with conductors, but the linear values can be measured with one channel of self-capacitance electrodes.
