Abstract:
Measurement apparatuses and methods are described. A measurement input is coupled with a first terminal of a capacitance via a first switch, and a reference voltage is coupled with the first terminal of the capacitance via a second switch. A measurement circuit is coupled to a second terminal of said capacitance.

Claim (Index 20):
A method, comprising:\n alternately applying an input voltage and a first reference voltage to a first input of a capacitor via an input portion of a device, wherein the input portion includes a first switch and a second switch, such that: the first switch is coupled between the input voltage and the first input of the capacitor; the second switch is coupled between the first reference voltage and the first input of the capacitor; and wherein the first switch and the second switch are configured to switch periodically such that when the first switch is closed the second switch is open and when the first switch is open the second switch is closed, coupling a second terminal of the capacitor to a comparator, and determining a bit value of an output signal based on an output of the comparator,\n wherein the comparator is designed to tolerate voltages with a magnitude less than a first voltage, \n wherein the first switch and the second switch are designed to tolerate voltages with a magnitude less than a second voltage, and \n wherein a magnitude of the second voltage is greater than a magnitude of the first voltage.
