- 10. A capacitive sensing circuit which includes a sense plate, a microchip connected to the sense plate, and a measurement circuit, wherein charge reflecting capacitance associated with the sense plate is transferred to the measurement circuit, and wherein the microchip effectively reduces the capacitance associated with the sense plate by reducing the amount of charge transferred to the measurement circuit, and wherein the size of the reduction in the amount of charge is determined before a capacitive measurement.
