Cypress releases five new CapSense Design Guides
The guides give comprehensive information in an easy to find and use format while assisting the designer in eliminating common mistakes related to sensor layout and tackling noisy systems.
The five new Design Guides include a Getting Started Guide which is essential reading for those new to CapSense and interested in detailed discussion on key points such as design consideration, PCB layout guidelines and best practices. The four product design guides focus on each CapSense controller family, streamlining the design process for the CY8C20x34, CY8C20xx6A, CY8C21x34, and CY8CMBR2044 families. Each family design guide includes links to the entire design ecosystem including data sheets, application notes, software tools, development kits and other materials that help designers create more efficient designs faster. These guides also assist in your design for advanced UI features such as proximity and water proofing.
“Using the guides in conjunction with our SmartSense Solution, engineers now have a complete set of tools to implement next generation designs in CapSense and proximity sensing,” said Dirk Franklin, director of Cypress’s CapSense Business Unit. “The guides will allow customers to locate all the information they need to complete a design in one place.”
