APPLICATIONS
The QT310 charge-transfer (“QT’”) touch sensor IC is a self-contained digital IC capable of detecting proximity, touch, or fluid
level when connected to a corresponding type of electrode. It projects sense fields through almost any dielectric, like glass,
plastic, stone, ceramic, and wood. It can also turn metal-bearing objects into intrinsic sensors, making them respond to
proximity or touch. This capability coupled with its ability to self calibrate continuously or to have fixed calibration by example
can lead to entirely new product concepts.
It is designed specifically for advanced human interfaces like control panels and appliances or anywhere a mechanical switch
or button may be found; it can also be used for material sensing and control applications, and for point-level fluid sensing.
The ability to daisy-chain the ICs permits the construction of high-sensitivity controls where the electrodes of two or more
QT310’s are adjacent to each other.
The burst rate can be programmed to a wide variety of settings, allowing the designer to trade off power consumption for
response time. The device requires only a common inexpensive external capacitor.
The IC’s RISC core employs signal processing techniques pioneered by Quantum; these are specifically designed to make
the device survive real-world challenges, such as ‘stuck sensor’ conditions and signal drift. All key operating parameters can
be set by the designer via the internal eeprom which can be configured via Quantum’s cloning process to alter sensitivity, drift
compensation rate, max on-duration, output polarity, calibration mode, Heartbeat™ feature, and toggle mode.
No external switches, opamps, or other analog components aside from Cs are required.
The Quantum-pioneered HeartBeat™ signal is also included, allowing a host controller to monitor the health of the QT320
continuously if desired. By using the charge transfer principle, the IC delivers a level of performance clearly superior to older
technologies in a highly cost-effective package.

... Only two low cost, non-critical capacitor are required for operation. A unique aspect of the QT310 is the ability of the designer to ‘clone’ a wide range of user-defined setups into the part’s eeprom during development and in production. Cloned setups can dramatically alter the behavior of the part ...

Cx slowly decreases (see Section 2.8.1 > 0, then PDC+1 sets the number of burst spacings, Tbs, that determines the interval of drift compensation, where: Example: then 6 Tbs = (Section 1.5.1) PDC = 9, (user setting) Tbs = 100ms Tpdc = (9+1) x 100ms = 1 sec Figure 2-1 Drift Compensation QT310/R1.01 07/02 ...

... See Figure 2-2 for operation usually desirable to suppress detections generated by sporadic electrical noise or from quick contact with an object. To accomplish this, the QT310 incorporates a pair of detection integrator (‘DI’) counters that serve to filter out sporadic noise. These counters can also have the effect of slowing down response time if desired ...

... Sync is a powerful feature that permits two important operating modes: Daisy-chaining, and noise synchronization. U2 The SYNC_I pin is used to trigger the QT310 to generate a 7 burst.

... If the power supply is shared with another electronic system, care should be taken to assure that the supply is free of spikes, sags, and surges. In BG1 mode the QT310 will track slow changes in Vdd if drift compensation is enabled, but it can be adversely affected by rapid voltage steps and spikes at the millivolt level ...

... LONE ORT ONNECTO cloning connector is used, place this close to the QT310. Placing the cloning connector far from the QT310 will increase the load capacitance Cx of the sensor line SNS1 and decrease sensitivity. Long distances on these lines can also make the cloning process more susceptible to communication errors from ringing and interference ...

... The additional capacitive loading of the interface pins will contribute to Cx; also, noise on the interface lines can cause erratic operation.
