Visual Communications Company developed a capacitive touch sensor display that provides a cost-effective, intuitive interface to ease and accelerate user interactions. The LED-based CTH Series capacitive touch sensor display combines graphic interactive control with colour identification to make the interface more user-friendly. Utilising sensitive capacitive touch sensing technology, the CTH Series simplifies designs and offers cost savings by eliminating the need for a traditional switch.
The LED display produces high optical clarity, and is offered with or without a wide variety of standard graphic overlays and colours. VCC can also develop custom icons to meet most any application requirement. Offered in a wide variety of colours including red, yellow, blue, pure green and white, the LED back-lit displays’ robust design has no moving parts, improving reliability and increasing the operational life. Featuring a through-hole design, the capacitive touch sensor display is available in one standard size of 15 x 15 x 11 mm with an industry standard pitch of 0,100”.
The CTH Series is used in a wide range of applications including appliances, consumer equipment, gaming devices, industrial control displays, media players, medical devices, mobile communication devices, PDAs, point of sale terminals, portable instruments, touch screen monitors and more.
