Biasing and Decoupling Op Amps in Single Supply Applications:    AN-581 Analog Devices Application Notes  (app note added 2/06)

Capacitance Meter:    This is a simple capacitance meter, which can measure capacitance value easy. There are some measurement methods for capacitance, at one time  capacitance was measured with an impedance bridge or a dip meter. Recently typical capacitance meters can measure capacitance and some additional characteristics from current vector by applying AC voltage to  Cx. Some simple capacitance meter use integration method that measuring transient response of  R-C network. There are some construction kits based on this method.  This project uses  integration method. There are some merits that  result can be got as digital data directly because it bases measurement of time, accurate analog circuit is not required and using a microcontroller can do its calibration easy. Therefore  integration method is suitable for hand built capacitance meter with high reliability....  (added 10/05)
