MICROCHIP CAP1296-1-AIA-TR Touch Screen/Proximity Controller, 6-CH Capacitive, I2C, SMBus Interface, 3V or 5.5V Supply, DFN-10

The CAP1296-1-AIA-TR is a 6-channel Capacitive Touch Sensor with proximity detection and signal guard. The CAP1296 is a turnkey capacitive touch controller provides a wide variety of button and proximity functionality and making it easy for designers to add aesthetically pleasing and robust touch interfaces. It also offers improved proximity detection with its signal guard option. The CAP1296 which incorporates RightTouch® technology, is a multiple channel capacitive touch sensor. It contains six (6) individual capacitive touch sensor inputs with programmable sensitivity for use in touch sensor applications. Each sensor input is calibrated to compensate for system parasitic capacitance and automatically recalibrated to compensate for gradual environmental changes.

• 6 Capacitive touch sensor inputs
• Programmable sensitivity
• Automatic recalibration
• Combo mode - key and proximity
• Press and hold feature for volume-like applications
• Power button support
• Signal guard
• Low power operations
• 8kV protection
