Response surface-based design of standard inductances for minimizing parasitic capacitances

Pasquale Arpaia, Luca Sabato
Abstract:
A procedure for reducing both deterministic and uncertainty effects of parasitic capacitance in designing standard inductors is presented. Metrological performance is enhanced while minimizing both deterministic and uncertainty effects simultaneously. In particular, statistical parameter design is exploited, by choosing optimum levels of design variables of the standard inductor. At this aim, initially, a first model is identified in order to define the impact of design parameters on parasitic capacitances considered as deterministic and the configuration for their minimization. Then, in the optimum configuration, a second model defines the impact of the design parameter uncertainty on the parasitic capacitance considered as random in order to assess the corresponding uncertainty budget. The method effectiveness is highlighted by a case study related to the design of an Ironless Inductive Position Sensor (I2PS).
