The capacitor employed sandwich structure, i.e. polyimide was used as the humidity sensitive material and gold was used as the electrodes. Capacitor shows a good pass rate of 80{\%}. As can be seen from the measurements, over the testing range from 15{\%} RH to 95{\%} RH, the maximum linearity error is 1.5{\%} RH. The sensitivity reaches 0.29pF /{\%} RH. The hysteresis is small, and the sensor has fast response time of 4~s. Meanwhile, capacitor shows good temperature coefficient and long-term stability. The results show that the comprehensive indexes of humidity capacitor are satisfactory. The capacitor is suitable for batch fabrication and can be used for high altitude meteorological observation.
