New from Texas Instruments is a capacitive sensing IC family that is immune to environmental noise from sources such as radios, power supplies, lights and motors. With 36 dB noise immunity, the company claims the FDC2214 family offers 60x better performance in the presence of noise than existing capacitive sensing solutions, enabling low-cost human body and object sensing in any environment. The devices’ unique narrowband architecture eliminates unwanted noise and common environmental interferences, bringing the benefits of capacitive sensing to today’s real-world sensing applications, including display wakeup on devices such as appliances, automotive displays, thermostats and consumer electronics to reduce power consumption.
