Calculate $x$-position according to:
__ | C |
β•²β•± a β‹… | - - c_f |
| a |
x = ──────────────
c_d - c_f
where:
- $C$ is the measured capacitance.
- $c_f$ is the capacitance of the filler medium per unit area
_(e.g., air)_.
- $c_d$ is the capacitance of an electrode completely covered in
liquid per unit area.
- $a$ is the area of the actuated electrode(s).
Note that this equation for $x$ assumes a single drop moving across an
electrode with a length along the x-axis of Lx. If no value is provided
for Lx, the electrode is assumed to be square, i.e.,
Lx=Ly=sqrt(area)

""""""
Convert data to a `pandas.DataFrame`.
Parameters
----------
filter_order : int
Filter order to use when filtering Z_device, capacitance, x_position, and dxdt.
Data is filtered using a Savitzky-Golay filter with a window size that is adjusted
based on the mean velocity of the drop (see _get_window_size).
Returns
-------
pandas.DataFrame
This DataFrame is indexed by a utc_timestamp and contains the following columns:
frequency: actuation frequency (Hz)
target_voltage: target voltage (V)
