Integrated Touch and Slide Control Panel IC
Integrated Touch and Slide Control Panel IC
The QT2160 implements 16 touch channels and a slider (using 2 to 8 channels) as well as LED control, IO expansion and a 2-wire serial interface, compatible to the industry standard I²C bus. The IC is ideal for use as a small control panel processor in battery driven consumer devices such as mobile phones, personal media players, PDAs, digital picture frames and other mobile appliances. It is based on Atmel's QMatrix™ and QSlide™ technologies, has very low power requirements and provides a very wide range of host programmable input/output configurations
- With its low power, low voltage attributes, this fully integrated device can be used in many different ways and is a good choice if, for example, you need to provide a media interface or special function keys in personal media players, PDAs, laptop keyboards or other hand-held consumer devices. Running at a Voltage range up to 5.5V, the QT2160 can also be used in mains driven applications, such as TV sets or audio and video equipment.
- The QT2160 provides a way of integrating a slider into your product at very low cost. The sensing elements can be made from almost any conductive material and can be integrated into the casing of the product in many novel ways. They can be made much longer than a conventional slider mechanism, can provide a better user experience and, with no moving parts, have the potential for much greater reliability.
- The IC is supplied in a 28-pin 4mm x 4mm RoHS compliant package and requires only a small number of additional components for a practical circui
