APPLICATIONS
The QT240 charge-transfer (“QT’”) QTouch IC is a self-contained digital sensor IC capable of detecting near-proximity or touch
on 4 electrodes. It allows electrodes to project independent sense fields through any dielectric like glass, plastic, stone,
ceramic, and wood. It can also turn metal-bearing objects into intrinsic sensors, making them responsive to proximity or touch.
This capability coupled with its continuous self-calibration feature can lead to entirely new product concepts, adding high value
to product designs.
Each of the channels operates independently of the others, and each can be tuned for a unique sensitivity level by simply
changing its sample capacitor value. Two speeds are supported, one of which consumes only 90µA of typical current at 4V.
Unique among capacitance sensors, the device incorporates spread spectrum modulation for unsurpassed EMC compliance.
The devices are designed specifically for human interfaces, like control panels, appliances, gaming devices, lighting controls,
or anywhere a mechanical switch or button may be found; they may also be used for some material sensing and control
applications.
These devices feature a SYNC pin which allows for synchronization with additional similar parts and/or to an external source to
suppress interference. This pin doubles as a drive pin for spread-spectrum modulation. Option pins are provided which allow
different timing and feature settings.
The RISC core of these devices use signal processing techniques pioneered by Quantum which are designed to survive
numerous real-world challenges, such as ‘stuck sensor’ conditions, component ageing, moisture films, and signal drift.
By using the charge transfer principle, these devices deliver a level of performance clearly superior to older technologies yet
are highly cost-effective.

... A sync pulse on SYNC/SS in slow mode acts to break the QT240 out of its sleep state between bursts, and to do infinite another burst. The device will then go back to sleep again and await a new SYNC pulse Sync pulse does not arrive within about 90ms, it will wake again and run normally ...

... The QT240 will track slow changes in Vdd, but can be seriously affected by rapid voltage steps. If the 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 cause adverse effects. The supply is best locally regulated using almost any 3-terminal LDO device from 4.0V to 5V. For proper operation a 0.1µ ...

... Higher values of Rsns will make crosstalk problems worse; try to keep Rsns to 22K or less if possible. In general try to keep the QT240 close to the electrodes and reduce the adjacency of the sense wiring to ground planes lQ and other signal traces; this will reduce the Cx load, reduce interference effects, and increase signal gain ...
