1 Introduction

Inductive sensing technology is a great choice for metal detection applications. In addition to detecting the presence of a metal target, the LDC3114 device is able to detect the proximity of the target with high precision.

1.1 Benefits of Inductive Proximity Sensing

Many applications require special care to ensure that system functionality is preserved in various situations and hazards. Inductive technologies offer unique benefits when compared to traditional metal detection designs:

  • No magnets required
  • Not affected by magnets
  • Immunity against dust and dirt
  • Simplicity and low cost of the PCB sensor
