The measuring electrode plates are connected with measuring pins of the corresponding capacitance sensors and used for measuring current capacitance values of corresponding measuring channels, and the auxiliary measuring electrode plates are grounded through the grounding pins.
The auxiliary excitation electrode plates are symmetrically arranged on the upper side and the lower side of the excitation electrode plates respectively; the excitation electrode plates and the auxiliary excitation electrode plates are connected with excitation pins of the corresponding capacitance sensors, and are used for receiving excitation signals of the capacitance-to-digital converter 40 so that the measurement electrode plates measure the current capacitance values of the corresponding measurement channels.
