New MCU family offers advanced touch features
The capacitive touch sensor is highly integrated and features improved sensitivity and noise immunity and operates better in wet conditions. It enables the use of touch keys in wet environments and on non-traditional materials such as wood.
The 38 RX130 MCUs offer higher performance and less power usage through the RX v2 core. Additional hardware features include an improved code flash memory, embedded security features, HMI support, and a large user memory. They are fully compatible with the company’s RX231/RX230 touch MCUs. The RX130 MCU group is compliant with safety standard IEC/UL60730 for consumer electronics.
Two development kits are available for the MCUs. The starter kit enables full evaluation of the controller and features an E2 on-chip debugger with capacitive touch sliders and keys.
The capacitive touch evaluation system enables the precise evaluation of various touch functions. The kit can be used as a reference tool when developing boards or software and enables simple prototyping.
Rutronik is stocking the new MCUs in 48, 64, 80, and 100-pin packages with up to 512KB on-chip flash memory.
