To overcome, the non-linearity of the voltage-to-force relation in capacitive feedback, a two-level feedback signal is often used. Therefore, a single-bit Σ-Δ modulator represents a practical way to implement capacitive sensors interface circuits. However, high-Q parasitic modes that exist in high-Q sensors (operating in vacuum) cause a stability problem for the Σ-Δ loop, and hence, limit the applicability of Σ-Δ technique to such sensors. A solution is provided that allows stabilizing the Σ-Δ loop, in the presence of high-Q parasitic modes. The solution is applicable to low or high order Σ-Δ based interfaces for capacitive sensorsensensors parasitic modesinterface systemsOther
