About the PSOC™ 4000

The key features of the PSOC™ 4000 family is the integration of CAPSENSE™, an industry-leading capacitive sensing technology. This technology allows for advanced touch sensing capabilities, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

In addition to CAPSENSE™, the PSOC™ 4000 family also features a range of programmable digital and analog peripherals. These peripherals include timers, counters, pulse-width modulators (PWMs), inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interfaces. The programmability of these peripherals allows designers to customize the SoC to suit their specific application requirements.

The PSOC™ 4000 family is suitable for a variety of consumer and industrial applications, thanks to its flexibility and range of features. Some possible applications include IoT devices, wearables, and industrial control systems.

CAPSENSE™

CAPSENSE™ is supported in the PSOC™ 4000 through a CSD block that can be connected to up to 16 pins through an analog mux bus via an analog switch. CAPSENSE™ function can thus be provided on any available pin or group of pins in a system under software control. A PSOC Creator component is provided for the CAPSENSE™ block to make it easy for the user.
