Coupling Length
Calculations for the X Electrode
Example Calculation
The goal with this interdigitated design is to optimize SNR by maximizing the coupling length
the X and Y electrodes within the confines of the space allocated for the key. The coupling length is
determined by a combination of the number of X and Y fingers, their individual widths, and the spacing
between them; several thin fingers means a longer coupling length than a few wide ones, which results
in a better SNR.
Given the widths of the Y and X traces, you will need to calculate the number of X fingers (X
will fit in the digitated electrode, allowing for a border at least T wide. Note that any unallocated width
remaining after the number of fingers has been calculated must be added to the border, so the width of
the border (X
