The work documented in this thesis, in collaboration with STMicroelectronics, regards the study and development of a suitable solution to perform the reading of capacitive sensors for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), which is a recent concept involving the periodical monitoring of structural parameters by relying completely on a distributed electronic system and not merely on human-dependent inspection. In particular, the final target of the designed interface is its integration as a peripheral into a System-on-Chip (SoC) currently under development at STMicroelectronics, containing at its core a proprietary microcontroller employing RISC-V open-source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). After a focus on pressure sensors, an extensive literature research of possible signal conditioning interfaces for capacitive sensors is carried out in this thesis, with a conclusive comparison that recognizes the Iterative Delay-Chain Discharge (IDCD) technique as the most promising solution for the target of the project.
