Atmel Targets Mobile Devices with Low Cost 4-Channel QTouch Capacitive Touch Button Controller

SAN JOSE, California - Atmel(c) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today a convenient, easy to
implement, low cost touch sensor IC, which brings capacitive user interfaces
to price-sensitive consumer and mobile devices. This AT42QT1040 device is
available in a 3mm x 3mm VQFN 20 pin package, making it ideal for use in
mobile phones and other handheld devices where PCB space is at a premium. In
low power mode the AT42QT1040 draws only 31uA from a 1.8 VDC supply, allowing
capacitive sensing to be added with minimal impact on battery lifetime. The
AT42QT1040 is the latest solution from Atmel’s touch sensor division, which
develops capacitive touch button, slider, wheel and touchscreen controllers.
The AT42QT1040 includes 4 digital output channels, enabling per-channel
indication on touch detection. The IC can also be configured using one
channel as a proximity sensor, enabling ‘hidden-until-lit’ user interfaces
where the device detects the presence of a finger some distance away from the
keypad.
