PSOC™ Automotive Multitouch Gen8 Experience the Future of Automotive Touchscreens with PSOC™ Automotive Multitouch Gen8
About Infineon's PSOC™ Automotive Multitouch Gen8 microcontrollers
PSOC™ Automotive Multitouch Gen8 is leveraging Infineon’s 10 years of experience in the touch controller sector. Infineon’s register configurable methodology provides tried and tested algorithms developed over >200 man years of automotive firmware development. Our Automotive Multitouch solutions are fully tested in an automated way (robot tests) against all specified performance parameters as well as EMI/EMC compliance, ESD, and environment change tests. Validation reports are available to shorten development cycles.
A capacitive touchscreen detects changes in capacitance to determine the location of one or more fingers on the surface of the touchscreen. A typical touchscreen system consists of a capacitive touchscreen sensor, an FPC bonded to the sensor, and the touchscreen controller mounted on the FPC or PCB. The touchscreen controller then connects to a host processor. Users can interact with the displayed user interface through finger movements and gestures on the surface of the touchscreen.Key Features and System Benefits
