Which outcome occurs when a capacitive proximity sensor detects a target?

A)Target material influences free capacitance
B)Supply voltage exceeds breakdown limit
C)Dielectric material reaches Curie point
D)Sensor coil achieves resonance frequency

💡 Explanation

Target presence near the electrodes alters the electric field, initiating capacitive sensing because the parasitic capacitance changes due to induced charge; therefore, capacitance changes signal target proximity, rather than other effects like breakdown or resonance.
