The QT100A charge-transfer (‘QT’) touch sensor is a self-contained digital IC
capable of detecting near-proximity or touch. It will project a touch or proximity
field through any dielectric like glass, plastic, stone, ceramic, and even most
kinds of wood. It can also turn small metal-bearing objects into intrinsic
sensors, making them responsive to proximity or touch. This capability,
coupled with its ability to self-calibrate, can lead to entirely new product
concepts.
It is designed specifically for human interfaces, like control panels, appliances,
toys, lighting controls, or anywhere a mechanical switch or button may be
found.
This device can also project a proximity field to severa centimeters with the
proper electrode and circuit design.
These devices are intended to replace the QT100. Two package types are
offered, one of which can directly replace the QT100’s SOT-23-6 package but
with a reduced thickness.

... Metal areas near the electrode will reduce the field strength and increase Cx loading and should be avoided, if possible. Keep ground away from the electrodes and traces. 1.4.3 Decreasing Sensitivity In some cases the QT100A may be too sensitive. In this case gain can be easily lowered by decreasing Cs.   opyright © ...

... Fast mode is approximately 1ms, as shown in Figure 2.2. sleep 2.1.3 Low Power Mode (SYNC = 0) The QT100A runs in Low Power (LP) mode if the SYNC pin is held low. In this mode it sleeps for approximately 85ms at the end of each burst, saving power but slowing response. On detecting a possible key touch, it temporarily switches to Fast mode until either the key touch is confirmed or found to be spurious (via the detect integration process) ...

... QT100A. The QT100A will track slow changes in Vdd, but it can be badly affected by rapid voltage fluctuations highly recommended that a separate voltage regulator be used just for the QT100A to isolate it from power supply shifts caused by other components. If desired, the supply can be regulated using a Low Dropout (LDO) regulator, although such regulators often have poor transient line and load stability ...
