  14. Universal Transducer Interface Resistivemode three signal technique WHY? Nooffset errors Nogain errors Notemperature drift No long term drift

  15. Universal Transducer Interface Resistivemode IN PRACTICE THIS MEANS high accuracy (15/16 bits) no offset and gain adjustment cost effective solution

  21. a little theory two pole measurement Cp Coax cable Cx ParasiteCp parallel to Cx Measurement is disturbed by cable capacitance not preferable Universal Transducer Interface Capacitivemode

  22. a little theory four pole measurement Cx Cp Cp i V I and V are shortcuts for capacitances so no influence of parasitics preferred solution inside the UTI of course Universal Transducer Interface Capacitivemode
