This course provides an introduction to capacitive touch technology, including theory and the use of a touch control evaluation kit. Content includes:

This was a good overview of Capacitive Sens technology and how it works. Since it is in just about every new consumer product on the market, it is nice to have an idea of exactly how it works. Pretty simple actually.

Good presentation. I was attracted to this course because of the title that suggested a connection with the touch switch lamp, and i was curious about it,but unfortunately it doesn't cover such a device. Anyway thanks a lot and keep up the good work. Cheers.

Cypress has good capsense technology. Their CY3269A EZ color demo kit is so nicely designed. The color triangle provided on the circuit board with the capsense technology gives any light color touched by us through a tri color LED.Also the LED brightness can be controlled by touch slider. Superb.
