General Description The eKT2101 is low-cost single chip solution for capacitive touchpad. It is 8-bit RISC architecture microcontroller devices with Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI-Slave), I2C-slave (Normal Mode). For function application, the Ekt2101 support Button information for customers. In operation mode, Ekt2101 can support Protocol and I/O mode for customer. Developer can use I/O mode to get a valid button message and develop their system very easily, and no longer need to decode the communication package. The capacitive touchpad sensor is covered with a plastic or glass case. It provides auto-calibrate the parameter for a wide range of capacitance on the touchpad sensor (5pF~35pF). The system controller converts finger data to button presses, depending on finger location and human interface context. The Ekt2101 supports multi-package for various application. Package types are QFP(32 pin) and SOP(28/24/16 pin).
Features Operating voltage : 3V~5.5V, Ripple < 300mVpp Power-on reset time : Stable time for operating <350ms, the touchpad will send “Packet Hello” after initialization Interface features : Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI Slave) and I2C-slave (Normal Mode) Operating mode: (@ 5V)
Useful information Key buttons information can be acquired through I/O transition or protocol decode.
Sensitivity: sensitivity can be adjusted from 00H to 0FH for different thickness of the plastic or glass cover. The default label is “07H”. Package type: 32-pin QFN 5x5 : eKT2101QN32J
