AC103003: 1 Button Capacitive Touch

Summary

The PIC10F mTouch Capacitive Evaluation Board demonstrates the simple implementation of a single capacitive touch key or proximity sensor using a PIC10F204/6 MCU.

One capacitive touch key can do the following functions:

  • An on/off, open/close button or other single action user interface

  • A proximity sensor to detect a hand coming close to the sensor

  • Enable lower standby power consumption

  • Trigger an action, like a lighted display, without a touch
