Challenges: Designing and testing challenges associated with touch sensors
The development of capacitive touch sensor face various designing and testing challenges such as grounding design, false touch, and EMI testing. Stable grounding design is critical to making sure that projected capacitive (PCAP) displays work properly. In addition, touch sensors are highly sensitive and touch screens ae prone to scratches. This may affect the functioning of the touch sensor and result in false touch.
Recent Developments:
- In December 2021, Infineon Technologies AG launched the company’s fifth-generation CAPSENSE capacitive and inductive touch sensing human-machine interface (HMI) technology. It delivers higher performance and lower power consumption for demanding user interfaces in home appliance, industrial, consumer and IoT products.
- In December 2020, Renesas Electronics Corporation expanded its 32-bit RA2 Series microcontrollers (MCUs) with 20 new RA2L1 Group MCUs, increasing the RA Family to 66 MCUs. The RA2L1 MCUs are designed for ultra-low power consumption, with several integrated features to lower BOM costs, including capacitive touch sensing, embedded flash memory densities up to 256 KB, SRAM at 32 KB, analog, communications, and timing peripherals, and safety and security functions.
- In April 2020, Infineon Technologies AG had acquired Cypress Semiconductor Corporation. The acquisition will broaden their application range as well as improve their product offerings such as sensors and others.
