Ttp223 TOUCH SENSOR

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 General Description
A capacitive touch sensor module based on the dedicated TTP223 touch sensor IC. The module provides a
single integrated touch sensing area of 11 x 10.5mm with a sensor range of ~5mm. An on-board LED will
give a visual indication of when the sensor is triggered. When triggered the modules output will switch from
its idle low state to high (default operation). Solder jumpers allow for reconfiguring its mode of operation to
be either active low or toggle output.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
2.1 Functional Description
The TTP223 1-Channel Capacitive Touch Sensor Module Red Color is based on a touch-sensing IC
(TTP223) capacitive touch switch module. A capacitive touch sensor module based on the dedicated
TTP223 touch sensor IC. The module provides a single integrated touch sensing area of 11 x 10.5mm with a
sensor range of ~5mm.An onboard LED will give a visual indication of when the sensor is triggered. When
triggered the output of the module will switch from its idle low state to high (default operation). Solder
jumpers allow for reconfiguring its mode of operation to be either active low or toggle output.
TTP223 Capacitive Touch Sensor Module. The TTP223 is a touchpad detector IC replicating a single tactile
button.
The TTP223 is a touchpad detector IC replicating a single tactile button. This touch detection IC is designed
for replacing traditional direct button key with diverse pad size.

AB=00: No-lock High TTL level output;

AB=01: Self-lock High TTL level output;
AB=10: No-lock Low TTL level output;
AB=11: Self-lock Low TTL level output;

Have two kinds of sampling length by pad option (SLRFTB pin).Stable touching detection of the human
body for replacing traditional direct switch key. Provides Fast mode and Low Power mode selection by pad
option(LPMB pin).Provides direct mode toggle mode by pad option(TOG pin).Open drain mode by bonding
option, OPDO pin is open drain output, Q pin is CMOS output. All output modes can be selected active high
or active low by pad option(AHLB pin).Have the maximum on time 100sec by pad option(MOTB pin).Have
external power-on reset pin(RST pin).After power-on have about 0.5sec stable-time, during the time do not
touch the keypad, and the function is disabled.

CHAPTER 3
IMPLEMENTATON
3.1 Typical Applications
Capacitor sensors are easily available and are of very low cost. These sensors are highly used in mobile
phones, iPods, automotive, small home appliances, etc… These are also used for measuring pressure,
distance, etc… A drawback of these sensors is that they can give a false alarm.
Resistive touch sensors only work when sufficient pressure is applied. Hence, these sensors are not useful
for detecting small contact or pressure.

3.2 Target Devices

 Handsets such as mobile phones, tablet PCs
 Musical instruments
 Keypads
 Touch Pads
 Watches

3.3 Software

The Touch sensing software is available as software package for ttp223 touch sensor in order to
calculate the touch and its pressure with best possible accuracy. The software uses the touch pressure
to calculate the pressure for the applied touch

3.4 System compatibility

The ttp223 touch sensor has been designed for best possible fit into modern mobile consumer
electronics devices. Besides the ultra-small footprint and very low power consumption, the ttp223
touch sensor has very wide ranges for VDD and VDDIO supply voltages.
