QT160

The QT160 charge-transfer ("QT") Q touch ICs are self-contained digital controllers capable of dete cting near-proximity or touch from up to 6 electrodes.They allow electrodes to project 6 independent sense fields through any dielectric like glass,plastic,stone,ceramic,and wood.

Applications of the QT160 are:(1)PC peripherals;(2)appliance controls;(3)access systems;(4)instrument panels;(5)backling hted buttons;(6)security systems;(7)pointing devices;(8)gaming machines.

The absolute maximum ratings of the QT160 can be summarized as:(1):the parameter is operating temperature,the rating is as designated by suffix;(2):the parameter is storage temperature,the rating is -55 to +125,the unit is ;(3):the parameter is VDD,the rating is -0.5 to +7.0,the unit is V;(4):the parameter is max continuous pin current, any control or drive pin,the rating is ±20,the unit is mA;(5):the parameter is short circuit duration to ground,any pin,the rating is infinite;(6):the parameter is short circuit duration to VDD,any pin,the rating is infinite;(7):the parameter isvoltage forced onto any pin,the rating is -0.6 to Vdd+0.6,the unit is Volts.
