A current conveyor-based relaxation oscillator as a versatile electronic interface for capacitive and resistive sensors

A new electronic interface circuit is presented. The circuit is built around a single plus-type second-generation current conveyor (CCII+) and can be used with resistive, capacitive and resistive-capacitive sensors. Experimental results are provided.
