TIDA-00220 Reference Design

Texas Instruments

Capacitive-Based Human Proximity Detection for System Wake-Up & Interrupt Reference Design

Description

This reference design uses our capacitive-to-digital converter technology to provide a high-precision method to wake up systems when human interaction occurs. TIDA-00220 demonstrates techniques for an alternative sensor design: environmental compensation and electromagnetic interference protection.

Features
  • Detects human proximity using a conductive nickel-print sensor that enables a flexible industrial designThe sensor can be copper PCB material or other conductive materialReduces environmental effects through several techniquesSensing range is dependent on sensor geometry (20 cm with tested hardware)Low-power consumption of 6.2 mWThis fully tested and characterized design includes hardware design files (schematics and layout): firmware and detailed user guide with test results
Applications
  • Refrigerator & freezer
  • Residential & living fan
Product Categories
  • Data converters
