Putting an insulating material between the plates increases the capacitance. The dielectric constant is the measure of how much that capacitance increased when you insert that material.

It is intended for use with any sensing element that generates a change in capacitance. Outfitted with six capacitance measurement channels, the part can be used for applications that measure pressure ...

To this end, thickness measurement devices must be able to produce precise and accurate readings without contacting the surface of wafer. For non-contact measurement of electrically conductive ...

Megger’s new CDAX 605 test set measure capacitance and dissipation factor at high voltages. Megger’s new CDAX 605 test set measure capacitance and dissipation factor at high voltages. Faster and ...

Our measurements detect the electrostatic part of the capacitance as well as the quantum corrections arising from the electronic density of states.

The input capacitance of an op amp often lies in the picofarad range, making it difficult to measure because parasitic effects in the test setup distort the result. But, with a small test setup ...

Santa Clara, Calif. Agilent Technologies Inc. has introduced the E4981A capacitance meter, the newest addition to its LCR family of meters. Offering accuracy, speed and a wide measurement range from ...

ABB has announced the development of a portable capacitance meter, the CB-2000, that is simpler to use and easier to carry than any other measuring devices previously available. The CB-2000 is an ...

Another novel capacitance-based inspection system has been developed for characterization of critical fastener dimensions. Design, capabilities, and inspection data obtained with the fastener ...

BEAVERTON, OR. Tektronix Inc. has announced the availability of two new source-measure unit (SMU) modules for the Keithley 4200A-SCS parameter analyzer that can perform low-current measurements ...
