A digital sensing apparatus includes a sensing unit capable of providing a sensing response associated with an environmental parameter, and a digital readout module including a reading unit for generating a pulse signal having a pulse width associated with the sensing response, and a converting unit. The converting unit includes a clock signal generator for generating a variable-frequency clock signal, and a counter operable to count a width value of the pulse width of the pulse signal using the clock signal, so as to generate a digital sensing code. The frequency of the clock signal from the clock signal generator is adjustable to adjust resolution of the width value of the pulse width of the pulse signal.

A sensing system includes a processing unit and sensor chip. The sensor chip includes a microelectrode array, a droplet space over the microelectrode array, and a plurality of control units coupled together in a daisy-chain configuration. Each of the control units is coupled to a respective one of the microelectrodes of the microelectrode array. The control units are controlled by the processing unit to drive movement of a droplet in the droplet space, and to inspect the droplet via the microelectrodes.
