Turnkey and firmware (MCU based)

Microchip offers "turnkey" and "firmware (MCU-based)" according to the application and customer's design concept.

turnkey

Turnkey touch controller does not require MCU firmware development. By setting parameters with a more intuitive GUI, you can achieve specifications that match your application. In addition, it is possible to connect to the host CPU with a simple interface such as I2C, SPI, USB, GPIO.

Firmware (MCU-based)

Microchip provides touch libraries to enable touch sensing on almost all PIC, AVR and SAM devices. This enables flexible designs that meet customer needs, such as low power consumption, water resistance, noise resistance, and integration of functions other than touch.
