DESCRIPTION

When a finger touches the copper trace area on the PCB representing the switch area, the capacitance of this area will change.

The product determines the output status of the INT pin by detecting this change.

The BMK52T016 includes 16 touch keys. Development boards read the keys’ statuses via I²C interface and lights up the corresponding LED.

Touch keys’ sensitivity can be configured individually according to your application. For example, when you place an acrylic panel on the product, the capacitance of the copper foil area affected decreases. Therefore, the keys require higher sensitivity.

PRODUCT FAQs

Question 1: How long does the product enter sleep mode?

Answer: The product enters sleep mode if it doesn’t sense a touch in 8 seconds.

Question 2: How to wake up the product from sleep mode?

Answer: The product wakes up once it senses a touch.

Question 3: Can touch keys senses even if I put glass or acrylic on it?

Answer: Sure, you can put glass or acrylic with the maximum thickness of 3mm on the board, and it is recommended to configure sensitivity of touch keys to achieve the best touch feedback.
