SwipeSwitch click is capacitive touch, gesture, and proximity sensing Click board™, which is equipped with the IQS266, an integrated capacitive trackpad controller. Featuring the proven ProxSense® and IQ Switch® technologies, this device provides very reliable capacitive sensing, even in noisy electrical conditions or over thick overlays.
Besides the matrix made of five capacitive touch sensing electrodes which form a capacitive trackpad, SwipeSwitch click also offers a single proximity channel. This channel can be used to wake up the device from the standby mode when the user approaches, ensuring lowered power consumption. The proximity channel can be used for the touch detection, as well.
The IQS266 features configurable Automatic Tuning Implementation (ATI) algorithms, ensuring an optimal performance under various conditions. By configuring base values of these algorithms, the IQS266 can be fine-tuned according to different application requirements. This makes the SwipeSwitch click well suited for the development of various applications, including:
- Wearables
- White goods
- Home appliances
- Toys
- Human-machine interfaces (HMI)
- Any other applications that require proximity or touch control
