Capacitive Touch Sensing Controller Touted as Easy-to-Implement

摘要

Cypress announced a new CapSense capacitive touch-sensing controller that enables designers to achieve mechanical button replacement (MBR)rnwithout having to write firmware or learn to use new software tools. The device leverages the company's SmartSense auto-tuning algorithm, which eliminates the requirement for system tuning. The controller offers desirable touch-sensing with ultra-low power consumption to extend battery life in a wide range of handheld products, and it is appropriate for consumer, communication, white goods, lighting, industrial and medical applications.
