发明名称 System and method for determining capacitance value
摘要 A circuit for determining a value of a variable capacitor includes first circuitry for generating a first indication when a variable voltage across the variable capacitor exceeds a threshold voltage. Second circuitry generates a second indication when a reference voltage across a reference capacitor exceeds the threshold voltage. Control logic responsive to the first and second indications generate a control signal indicating whether the first indication or the second indication occurs first. A successive approximation engine generates an N-bit control value responsive to the control signal. A variable current source is responsive to the N-bit control value for generating a variable current to the first circuitry. A reference current source generates a reference current to the second circuitry.
