Abstract

An apparatus that includes a first conducting strip having a narrowed width where the first conducting strip also acts as a first electrode for a first tapping capacitance. The first tapping capacitance has a second electrode that is: 1) parallel to the first conducting strip; and 2) closer to the first conducting strip than a second conducting strip. The second conducting strip is parallel to the first conducting strip and has a narrowed width where the second conducting strip also acts as a first electrode for a second tapping capacitance. The second tapping capacitance has a second electrode that is: 1) parallel to the second conducting strip; and 2) closer to the second conducting strip than the first conducting strip.
