ESCRIPTION
The SX8643 is an ultra low power, fully integrated
12-channel solution for capacitive touch-buttons and
applications. Unlike many capacitive touch solutions,
the SX8643 features dedicated capacitive sense
inputs (that requires no external components) in
addition to 8 general purpose I/O ports (GPIO). Each
GPIO is typically configured as LED driver with
independent PWM source for enhanced lighting
control such as intensity and fading.
The SX8643 includes a capacitive 10 bit ADC analog
interface with automatic compensation up to 100pF.
The high resolution capacitive sensing supports a
wide variety of touch pad sizes and shapes and
allows capacitive buttons to be created using thick
overlay materials (up to 5mm) for an extremely
robust and ESD immune system design.
The SX8643 incorporates a versatile firmware that
was specially designed to simplify capacitive touch
solution design and offers reduced time-to-market.
Integrated
multi-time
programmable
memory
provides the ultimate flexibility to modify key firmware
parameters (gain, threshold, scan period, auto offset
compensation… ) in the field without the need for
new firmware development.
The SX8643 supports the 400 kHz I²C serial bus
data protocol and includes a field programmable
slave address. The tiny 5mm x 5mm footprint makes
it an ideal solution for portable, battery powered
applications where power and density are at a
premium.
