Front Panel

Each material type is defined with a dielectric permittivity constant, known as epsilon (

εr).

The higher

εr, the easier the electrical field is transmitted through the material.

If the proximity distance without any panel is tair0, it becomes tair1 when a panel is inserted

between the electrodes and the finger.

Equation 2 gives the formula at equivalent sensitivity tuning (same electrode, same CS, and

same threshold).

Equation 2

Example

If Tair0 = 5 cm and we insert a 5 mm glass panel (

εr = 10) by gluing it to the electrode PCB

with 0.5 mm of pressure sensitive adhesive (

εr = 3), then

Tair1 = 5 - (0.5/10 + 0.05/3) = 4.93 mm.

Note that the total distance between the finger and the electrode has increased due to the

good dielectric performance of the glass panel.
