35.1 Features

  • Low-Power, High-Sensitivity, Environmentally Robust Capacitive Touch Buttons, Sliders, Wheels, and 2D Surface
  • Supports Mix-and-Match Mutual Capacitance and Self-Capacitance Sensing
    • Supports 29/25/20/16 PTC pins, for the 64/48/32/28 pin variants, respectively
  • Supports Lumped Mode, Which Allows the Integration of Multiple Sensors, Configuring Them to Function as a Single Sensor
  • One Pin per Electrode—No External Components Required
  • Load Compensating Charge Sensing:
    • Parasitic capacitance compensation
    • Adjustable gain for superior sensitivity
  • Zero Drift Over the Temperature and VDD Range:
    • Auto-calibration and recalibration of sensors
  • Hardware Noise Filtering and Noise Signal Desynchronization for High Conducted Immunity
  • Driven Shield+ for Superior Noise Immunity and Moisture Tolerance in Self-Capacitance Systems
    • Any PTC X/Y line can be used for the Driven Shield
  • Supports External Integration Capacitors (EXTCINT) for Large Capacitance Sensors
  • Boost Mode for Doubled Signal-to-Noise Ratio or 4x Faster Response Time in Mutual Capacitance Systems
  • Supported by the MPLAB® Code Configurator (MCC) Touch Configurator Development Tools
