  8. Renesas’ Capacitive Touch Solution Renesas now provides an advanced sensor scanning unit (SCU) implemented in hardware along with a complete set of tools for capacitive touch solutions. The FREE tools available include: Tuning Software Sensor API Touch Library Example Code Apple’s Magic Trackpad

  9. Agenda What can I do with the Renesas capacitive touch solution? How do I actually code up an application with what Renesas provides? How to dance like MC Hammer!

  10. Agenda

  11. Agenda What can I do with the Renesas capacitive touch solution? How do I actually code up an application with what Renesas provides? How to dance like MC Hammer! Q&A

  12. Key Takeaways Learn about typical capacitive touch interfaces and when to use them Understand how to handle keys, sliders, and wheels within your application code Become familiar with the Renesas touch library model and its intuitive API

  13. Capacitive Touch Interfaces Sliders Switches Wheels Gestures

  14. Capacitive Touch Interfaces

  15. Distinct software layers for easy management Firmware available in source format Optimized driver tightly coupled to SCU Complete Sensor API to enable customization Support for Wheel, Slider, Switch, and Matrix configurations Renesas Software Architecture

  16. Overview Of Using The Touch Library

  17. Overview Of Using The Touch Library

  18. The Primitives • Functions • Touch_Init • Touch_Register_Sensor • Touch_Unregister_Sensor • Touch_Start • Touch_Handler • Data Types • Sensor_Type_t • Sensor_State_t • Orientation_t • Polarity_t • Direction_t • Sensor_Params_t • Sensor_t

  19. Let’s Start Out Simple: The Switch Switch Types Toggle Momentary Repeat Proximity Sensor_Params_tSwitchParams; /* Initialization code */ SwitchParams.id=0; SwitchParams.type=TOGGLE_SWITCH; SwitchParams.channel=7; SwitchParams.debounce=TRUE; SwitchParams.callback=Switch_Event Touch_Register_Sensor(&SwitchParams);

  20. Let’s Start Out Simple: The Switch intSwitch_Event(Sensor_t*Switch) { if(Switch->state==ACTIVE){ Led_State(LED_7,ON); }else{ Led_State(LED_7,OFF); } }

  21. The Electric Slide Sensor_Params_tSliderParams; /* Initialization code */ SliderParams.id=1; SliderParams.type=SLIDER; SliderParams.channel=1; SliderParams.count=6; SliderParams.resolution=2; SliderParams.orientation=EAST_WEST; SliderParams.callback=Slider_Event Touch_Register_Sensor(&SliderParams);

  22. The Electric Slide intSlider_Event(Sensor_t*Slider) { if(Slider->state==TOUCHED){ if(Slider->position<=8){ /* … */ }elseif(Slider->position<=16){ /* … */ } /* … */ } }

  23. The Wheels On The Bus Go… Sensor_Params_tWheelParams; /* Initialization code */ WheelParams.id=2; WheelParams.type=WHEEL; WheelParams.channel=10; WheelParams.count=4; WheelParams.resolution=4; WheelParams.callback=Wheel_Event Touch_Register_Sensor(&WheelParams);

  24. Putting It All Together • What type of sensors? • How many channels required? • Single chip or multi-chip design? • Multi-touch support? • Sensor rejection?

  25. But Wait…
