capacitive sensor with no ground
I am trying to set up a capacitive sensor on an attiny. I have it working fine when the power is supplied from an arduino but when I cut it off and only do battery it goes completely haywire. I am assuming this is because I am cutting off a large ground. I just ordered a 7 segment display to see what the readings are like when its cut from ground …
19.5: Capacitors and Dielectrics
The unit of capacitance is the farad (F), named for Michael Faraday (1791–1867), an English scientist who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. Since capacitance is charge per unit voltage, we see that a farad is a coulomb per volt, or

The question always arises as to where and how to ground the power cable shield. We have found that grounding the shield—either directly or through a significant capacitance—at the drive, and also grounding the driver …
8.1 Capacitors and Capacitance – University Physics Volume 2
Capacitors with different physical characteristics (such as shape and size of their plates) store different amounts of charge for the same applied voltage V across their plates. The capacitance C of a capacitor is defined as the ratio of the maximum charge Q that can be stored in a capacitor to the applied voltage V across its plates. ...
