Many people mistake the growth in capacitive touch sensors as the adoption of new technology. But the fact is advances in mixed-signal programmable devices, those that combine analog and digital ...

A lot of consumer gadgets use touch sensors now. It is a cheap and reliable way to replace a variety of knobs and switches on everything from headphones to automobiles. However, creating a custom t… ...

A digital output is used in most applications, but there's an advantage in digitizing the information even if the required sensor output is an analog signal-either a voltage or an industrial ...

Bare Conductive raised over US$200,000 on Kickstarter last year for an Arduino-based project called Touch Board that turns ... a custom chip that allows the Touch Board to act as a capacitive sensor.

Cautions and recommendations relative to characterizing capacitive touch screens' performance in the presence of noise from displays, power supplies, etc. Fig 1. In capacitive touchscreens, the ...

Instead of using mechanical paddles, [Sebastian] brought his iambic key into the 21st century by using a touch sensor. An ATtiny45 measures the time it takes for a single metal plate to fully charge.

While these actions may appear to be an analog response, the action of the slider is all digital. Ring sliders typically have eight capacitive touch switches spaced at 45° intervals under the ring.
