... AKS™ Adjacent Key Suppression (QT160) Less expensive per key than many mechanical switches Eval board with backlighting - p/n E160 Pb-Free package available (QT160-ASG) APPLICATIONS PC Peripherals Backlighted buttons QT160 / QT161 charge-transfer (“QT’”) QTouch ICs are self-contained digital controllers capable of detecting near-proximity or touch from electrodes ...

... OVERVIEW QT160/161 is a 6-channel burst mode digital charge-transfer (QT) sensor designed specifically for touch controls; they include all hardware and signal processing functions necessary to provide stable sensing under a wide variety of conditions. Only a single low cost, non-critical capacitor per channel is required for operation. ...

... Experimentation is required. Since the channels acquire their signals in time-sequence, any of the 6 electrodes can be placed in direct proximity to each other if desired without cross-interference. A good example of backlighting can be found in the E160 eval board for the QT160. 1.3.3 K ’ IRCHOFF ...

... Figure 1-6 Shielding Against Fringe Fields Sense wire 1.3.6.2 Decreasing Sensitivity In some cases the QT160 may be too sensitive. In this case gain can be lowered further by a number of strategies: a) making the electrode smaller, b) making the electrode into a sparse mesh using a high space-to-conductor ratio (Figure 1-3 decreasing the Cs capacitors ...

... If no detection is sensed prior to the final count, the H ysteresis counter is reset immediately to zero. In the QT160/161, the required count is 3. The Detection Integrator can also be viewed as a 'consensus' filter, that requires three detections in three successive bursts to create an output. ...

... If the power supply is shared with another electronic system, care should be taken to assure that the supply is free of digital spikes, sags, and surges which can adversely affect the IC. The QT160/161 will track slow changes in Vdd, but it can be seriously affected by rapid voltage steps. The supply is best locally regulated using a conventional 78L05 type regulator, or almost any 3-terminal LDO device from ...

... Keep the 6 Cs sampling capacitors and all series-R components close to the IC. 7. Use a 0.1µF minimum ceramic bypass cap very close to the QT160/161 supply pins. 8. Use series-R’s in the sense lines large a value as the circuit can tolerate. 9. Bypass input power to chassis ground and again at circuit ground to reduce line-injected noise effects ...
