2. DCC Introduction(1)
The Principle of Capacitive Touch
Allow design flexibility:
– Free from pad size, pad location, cover thickness, PCB variation
– Capable of on-board, not on additional board
Result in same sensitivity all the time
Insulator (Set cover)
Touch PAD (Copper)
A
PCB CTouch = ε
DCC D
Ctouch: The capacitance induced between finger and touch pad when touched.
ε : the constant value of permittivity (Air=1,Glass= 10, Acryl=5~10, Rubber=2~3)
D : The thickness of Set Cover
A : The size of Touch Pad
