QT110-IS

Quantum

The QT110 / QT110H charge-transfer (“QT’”) sensor chips are self-contained digital ICs used to implement near-proximity or touch sensors. They project sense fields through almost any dielectric, like glass, plastic, stone, ceramic, and wood. They can also turn small metal-bearing objects into intrinsic sensors, making them respond to proximity or touch. This capability coupled with an ability to self-calibrate continuously leads to entirely new product concepts.Less expensive than many mechanical switches Projects a ‘touch button’ through any dielectric 100% autocal for life - no adjustments required No active external components Piezo sounder direct drive for ‘tactile’ click feedback LED drive for visual feedback 2.5 ~ 5V single supply operation 10µA at 2.5V - very low power drain Toggle mode for on/off control (via option pins) 10s or 60s auto-recalibration timeout (via option pins) Pulse output mode (via option pins) Gain settings in 3 discrete levels Simple 2-wire operation possible HeartBeat™ health indicator on output Active low (QT110), active high (QT110H) versionsAPPLICATIONS Elevator buttons Consumer electronics Access systems Pointing devices Appliance control Security systems Light switches Industrial panels
