3 Description
Inductive sensing technology enables touch button
design for human machine interface (HMI) on a wide
variety of materials such as metal, glass, plastic, and
wood, by measuring small deflections of conductive
targets. The sensor for an inductive touch system is a
coil that can be implemented on a small PCB located
behind the panel and protected from the environment.
Inductive sensing solution is insensitive to humidity or
non-conductive contaminants such as oil and dirt. It is
able to automatically correct for any deformation in
the conductive targets.
The LDC2112/LDC2114 is a multi-channel low-noise
inductance to digital converter with integrated
algorithms to implement inductive touch applications.
The device employs an innovative LC resonator that
offers high rejection of noise and interference. The
LDC2112/LDC2114 can reliably detect material
deflections of less than 200 nm.
The LDC2112/LDC2114 includes an ultra-low power
mode intended for power on/off buttons in battery
powered applications.
The LDC2112/LDC2114 is available in a 16-pin
DSBGA or TSSOP package. The 0.4 mm pitch
DSBGA package has a very small 1.6 × 1.6 mm
nominal body size with a maximum height of 0.4 mm.
The 0.65 mm pitch TSSOP package has a 5.0 × 4.4
mm nominal body size with a maximum height of 1.2
mm.
