Apparatuses and methods of converting a capacitance measured on a sense element to a digital value are described. One apparatus includes a modulator having a modulator capacitor, a sense element selectively coupled in a feedback loop of the modulator to operate as a switching capacitor. The apparatus also includes a first switch coupled between a voltage source and a first node of the switching capacitor and a second switch coupled between the first node of the switching capacitor and a first node of the modulator capacitor. The switching capacitor provides a charge current to the modulator capacitor via the second switch. The modulator measures a capacitance of the sense element and converts the measured capacitance to a digital code representing the capacitance.
