摘要： A sensing device includes a Wheatstone bridge and a source of a stimulation configured to apply the stimulation across two electrodes of the Wheatstone bridge. The device also includes a timing sensitive circuit configured to detect timing of a signal appearing across one of the other electrodes of the bridge as a result of the stimulation being applied. The timing provides a way to read the sensor. The device can be powered remotely and data so read can be transmitted using the remote power. The timing sensitive circuit includes a comparator. The comparator provides a high logic signal for a time related to the reactance of one leg of the Wheatstone bridge, and that provides a reading of a differential sensor having elements in each leg of the bridge.
