We are currently in the era of touch and sensor
technology. Latest phone and computer devices nowadays are having a touch
screen features. You will be left out if you don’t have the latest touch screen
phone or tablet. As an online geek, I always make sure that I am updated to
every new technology that came out to the market.
Thanks to our inventors they were able to make
CAP1114, a multiple channel capacitive touch sensor and LED driver. CAP1114 can
be applied mostly to consumer electronics, desktop and notebook PCs, LCD
monitors and other devices that has capacitive touch sensor technology. With
that, we are enjoying our mobile devices with touch screen capability like
never before.
CAP1114 device integrates SMSC’s RightTouch™
technology and consists of 14 individual capacitive touch sensor inputs with
programmable sensitivity mainly for the use in touch button and slider switch
applications. Each sensor contains automatic recalibration with programmable
time delays.
The complete product features of CAP1114 based
on the Microchip News are the following:
- Fourteen (14) capacitive touch sensor inputs
- Lid closure detection
- Low power operation
- Alert to signal touch to host processor
- User controlled reset
- Low external component count
- SMBus 2.0 compliant interface to change operating parameters to work in a wide variety of systems
- Eleven (11) LED driver outputs
- Development boards and software available
- Available in 32-pin 5mm x 5mm QFN Lead-free RoHS Compliant package
