Sept 7, 2005

Quickly add an economical
touch control to your product!
Pittsford, NY:
QT110
family of
QTouch™
sensor ICs
are designed for ultra-reliable charge-transfer capacitive touch-sensing switch
applications and
are
ideal for simple, inexpensive touch controls in almost any product.
The very-low-consumption QT110
family can
create touch-sense fields through dielectric surfaces such as plastic or glass
up to 100mm (4") thick, and can even turn small objects into sensors, or work
easily through gloved hands.
QT113 and QT118H can
also be used for material, liquid or moisture sensing, requiring only an
external sampling capacitor and an electrode to operate.
On/Off Buttons,
Appliance Controls,
Security Detection,
Lighting Controls,
Intrinsically Safe
Switches, and
Toys/Interactive
Games are typical applications.
Unique features of QTouch™ sensor ICs include: fully debounced results, lifetime auto-calibration, drift compensation, recalibration timeouts, plus a variety of response times, output polarities and toggle modes. These parts need no special calibration or adjustment. They automatically adjust to the build-up of dirt, moisture, and temperature variations. Most QT110 family devices are designed for human touch. QT110 and QT118H include piezo beeper drive logic, with current consumption as low as 10µA.
QT110/113/118
are available from stock from Saelig Co. (USA distributor for Quantum Research
UK. Also available is an E11x
Demonstration Board,
which allows a
simple evaluation of all three
QT110/113/118
QTouch™ ICs
