Figure 23. 
Smaller amounts of change indicate increased sensitivity for the capacitance sensor. Some sample values are shown in 
.
In the above cases, the capacitance is assumed to be in the middle of the range for specific settings. Within the capacitance 
range the equation is nonlinear, thus the sensitivity is best with the lowest capacitance. This graph shows the sensitivity derivative 
reading across the valid range of capacitances for a set I, T, and V
DD
. For simple small electrodes (that are approximately 
21 pF) and a nominal 1.8V supply the following graph is representative of this effect.
