Atmel Announces AT42QT1060 6 Channel Touch Controller with Drive Up 7 Low Current LED
The AT42QT1060 is a touch control chip that integrates 6 channels of touch sensing with the ability to drive up to 7 low current LEDs directly through a pulse width modulated (PWM) output function. The AT42QT1060 is the latest addition to Atmel’s comprehensive range of capacitive touch controllers based on Quantum Research Group’s charge-transfer technology. The AT42QT1060 is designed for use in portable electronics products. An inbuilt capacitive guard channel feature helps prevent false triggering, for example, where moisture is an issue. The AT42QT1060 functions through any insulating panel including glass or plastic up to 3mm thick. Electrodes can be made from copper, silver, carbon, indium tin oxide (ITO) or Orgacon conductive ink and must be 6 x 6mm or larger…
