Product Summary

The QT240-ISSG is a burst mode digital charge-transfer (QT) sensor IC designed specifically for touch controls. The QT240-ISSG includes all hardware and signal processing functions necessary to provide stable sensing under a wide variety of conditions. Only a single low cost capacitor per channel is required for operation. The QT240-ISSG employs bursts of charge-transfer cycles to acquire signals. Burst mode permits low power operation, dramatically reduces RF emissions, lowers susceptibility to RF fields, and yet permits excellent speed. Internally, signals are digitally processed to reject impulse noise using a consensus filter that requires six consecutive confirmations of detection. The applications of the QT240-ISSG are: Gaming machines, Access systems, Pointing devices, Appliance controls, Security systems.

Parametrics

QT240-ISSG absolute maximum ratings: (1)VDD: -0.3 to +5.5V; (2)Max continuous pin current, any control or drive pin: ±20mA; (3)Short circuit duration to ground, any pin: infinite; (4)Short circuit duration to VDD, any pin: infinite; (5)Voltage forced onto any pin: -0.3V to (Vdd + 0.3) Volts.
