The MCUs feature the most conf

To learn about these new solutions, go to Capacitive touch detection is sometimes considered more art than science. This often results in multiple design iterations before the optimum

Tuning guides: Capacitive Touch Sensing, MSP430 Button Gate Time Optimization and Tuning Guide (SLAA574) Capacitive Touch Sensing, MSP430 Slider and Wheel Tuning Guide (SLAA575) Good sensor design is the foundation for a successful touch product. The purpose of this design guide is to pro
10、vide guidance for the design and layout of capacitive touch sensors so that they can achieve maximum performance. By achieving maximum performance in the hardware, the capacitive touch software library can perform the capacitive touch measurements with the lowest power consumption. After the softwar
11、e library is implemented for the application, the tuning guides can be used to tune the performance of the capacitive touch application. Section 2 provides an overview of capacitive touch detection and describes its terms, concepts, and theory of operation. Section 3 and following are organized like
12、 a product designfrom schematic to mechanicals to layout. The schematic and mechanicals are treated as design requirements that influence the PCB layout. This guide first describes requirements that might be found in the schematic and mechanical requirements of the product. These requirements have a
13、n effect on the layout and must be considered first. After the requirements of the product are understood, then the PCB layout can begin. 2Overview of Capacitive Touch Sensing This overview is broken into two main parts. The first part is the theory of capacitive touch detection. In Section 2.1, som
14、e basic terms are defined and discussed to give a basis for the description of capacitive touch detection provided in the equivalent circuit. The second portion of the overview in Section 2.2 introduces figures of merit used in capacitive touch detection. These parameters are used to evaluate the pe

16、efore discussing the equivalent circuit, some basic terms are introduced: electrode, traces, and capacitance. 2.1.1Terms: Electrodes, Traces, Capacitance An electrode is the physical conductive structure that a person interacts with. This structure is typically thought of as the copper on a printed circuit board (PCB), but can also be made of transparent materials such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or other conductive materials like silver. As shown in Figure 1, the electrode shape c
