Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ: CY) today announced that it
has posted five new videos about its industry-leading TrueTouch®
touchscreen controller line on its website at
www.cypress.com/go/TrueTouch. The videos showcase many of the
unique touchscreen features available only from Cypress, including
waterproofing, 1-mm stylus support, hover detection, and the
Charger Armor™ feature that allows normal touchscreen performance
in the presence of extremely noisy battery chargers.
Cypress is unique in its ability to dynamically switch between
self-capacitive and mutual-capacitive sensing methods. This
capability enables TrueTouch controllers to deliver unparalleled
multi-finger tracking capability and offer one-of-a-kind
differentiating features such as hover, waterproofing and 1-mm
stylus support on capacitive touchscreens.
The five new videos are:
- TrueTouch Overview – showcases the many
different TrueTouch solutions and features.
- Charger Armor – shows how TrueTouch can
deliver flawless performance in the presence of severe noise
generated by low-cost, third-party chargers.
- Waterproofing – demonstrates normal
touchscreen performance in the presence of wet fingers, water
droplets and high humidity—conditions that can severely impede the
performance of other touchscreen controllers.
- 1-mm Stylus Support – demonstrates
highly responsive and accurate performance of a TrueTouch
capacitive touchscreen with a 1-mm stylus, enabling manufacturers
to replace resistive touchscreens with more attractive and durable
capacitive screens.
- Hover Detection – shows how TrueTouch
can sense a finger approaching, but not yet touching the screen.
This capability allows the area near the finger to be magnified,
making it easier for users to select their desired target. It can
also be used for mouseover and highlighting functions.
“These videos are an excellent way to clearly show the
differentiating features and superior performance of our TrueTouch
solution,” said John Carey, director of TrueTouch marketing for
Cypress. “Customers have told us that these features are important
to them, and we intend to continue to develop new innovations that
will change the touch landscape.”
