has been prototyped based on MEMS-CMOS integration technology. The designed analog-
digital mixed signal ASIC allows many tactile sensors to connect each other on a common
bus line, which drastically reduces the number of wire. The ASIC capacitively detects the
deformation of a force sensor and sends digital data to the common bus line when the force
exceeds a threshold. The digital data contain a physical ID of each sensor, 32-bit sensing …
