Automotive capacitive touch controller
14 September 2010
MSC Vertriebs introduces the first automotive-qualified standard product capacitive touch controller.
Based on the patented QTouch capacitive touch technology for buttons, sliders and wheels, the AT42QT1110 is a ready-to-use 11-key capacitive touch controller.
These products are ideal for automobile applications such as global positioning systems, window and mirror control, and keyless remote entry.
Atmel achieved this qualification by developing these products in a facility that is fully compliant with the ISO-TS-16949 and QS-9000 standards. The firmware is written according to the Motor Industry Software Reliability Association C (MISRA C) standard and qualified according to the AEC-Q100 (Automotive Electronic Council) standard.
AT42QT1110 is also available on non-automotive grade silicon for use in industrial and home appliance applications. These devices offer an identical feature set to the automotive-qualified devices, but without the AEC-Q100 qualification.
