The particular touch sensor controller was released in probably 2010 – or at least first revision of appnotes is from that year – and now, in 2015 it is not longer manufactured and unavailable ...

The MPR121 (MPR121QR2) IC is the 2 nd generation capacitive touch sensor controller from Freescale Semiconductor. The chip features increased internal intelligence, some of the major pluses include an ...

Capacitive touch sensors are fast becoming an integral part of many electronic goods these days. Made popular by products like the Apple iPod adopting it, capacitive sensors have now become the ...

Capacitive touch sensing allows for triggering the sensor without actually physically touching one’s lips to the electrodes, which [Nathan] did by putting a clear plastic layer over the PCB traces.

Many people mistake the growth in capacitive touch sensors as the adoption of new technology. But the fact is advances in mixed-signal programmable devices, those that combine analog and digital ...

The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS) is a gesture sensitive functional textile touch-pad interface for physical devices. The CTS is produced as a single piece of fabric requiring only two electrodes to ...

I am trying to test a capacitive touch sensor. Specifically, I want to show that it registers a specific change in capacitance. Capacitance is defined as: C = A * Eo * Er / d Keeping A, Eo and d ...

Christian Harders, a Fujitsu applications engineer, said: "It is comparatively easy to develop this type of product using devices such as Fujitsu's FMA1127 capacitive touch sensor controller. This ...

Capacitive sensors are able to detect when they are touched without requiring a pressure or movement. Even with AirPods Pro, it's possible to knock them out of your ear so anything that stops you ...

In the last Sensor Sense we looked at capacitive touch switches used for on/off control. But these switches are also found in capacitive touch sliders that can control various levels, such as ...
