Product Introduction
The AT42QT1010 is a digital burst mode charge-transfer sensor that is capable of detecting near proximity or touch, making it ideal for implementing touch controls.
The QT1010 is designed specifically for human interfaces like control panels, appliances, toys, lighting controls, or anywhere a mechanical switch or button may be found. It includes all hardware and signal processing functions necessary to provide stable sensing under a wide variety of changing conditions. Only a single low-cost capacitor is required for operation.
With the proper electrode and circuit design, the self-contained digital IC will project a touch or proximity field to several centimeters through any dielectric like glass, plastic, stone, ceramic, and even most kinds of wood. It can also turn small metal-bearing objects into intrinsic sensors, making them responsive to proximity or touch. This capability, coupled with its ability to self-calibrate, can lead to entirely new product concepts.
