Zusammenfassung: | An amplifier circuit (AC) for amplifying an output signal (OS) of a capacitive sensor (M) comprises a first input terminal (AIN) to receive the output signal (OS) of the capacitive sensor (M) and a second input terminal (BIN) to receive a bias voltage (Vbias) of the capacitive sensor (M). The amplifier circuit (AC) comprises an amplifier (A) for amplifying the output signal (OS) and a control circuit (CF) arranged in a feedback loop (FL) of the amplifier (A) being configured to control a DC voltage level at an input connection (A1) of the amplifier (A). A bias voltage sensing circuit (BVS) senses a change of the level of the bias voltage (Vbias) at the second input terminal (BIN) and changes the bandwidth of the feedback loop (FL) in dependence on the sensed change of the level of the bias voltage (Vbias). |
