Precise capacitive displacement sensor adds capabilities, expands measurement ranges

LION PRECISION CPL490 Capacitive Displacement Sensor measures position/displacement with 50 picometer precision or less. Relative to the noncontact sensor’s measurement range, that translates to a resolution value of less then seven parts-per-million even at 15kHz bandwidth. Device can resolve target position changes of less then 100 picometers while objects are moving at 15kHz. When bandwidth is increased to 50kHz, the precision remains less than 0.3 nanometers. A wider selection of probes and ranges puts more flexibility and capability in the hands of user.
