FLUID LEVEL SENSOR AND RELATED METHODS

In an embodiment, a fluid level sensor includes a sensor plate and a current source. The fluid level sensor also includes an algorithm to bias the current source such that current applied to the sensor plate induces a maximum difference in response voltage between a dry sensor plate condition and a...

Summary:In an embodiment, a fluid level sensor includes a sensor plate and a current source. The fluid level sensor also includes an algorithm to bias the current source such that current applied to the sensor plate induces a maximum difference in response voltage between a dry sensor plate condition and a wet sensor plate condition. En una modalidad, un sensor de nivel de fluido incluye una placa del sensor y una fuente de corriente. El sensor de nivel de fluido también incluye un algoritmo para polarizar la fuente de corriente tal que la corriente aplicada a la placa del sensor induce una diferencia máxima en el voltaje de respuesta entre una condición de la placa del sensor seca y una condición de la placa del sensor húmeda.
