“Wir waren auf der Suche nach einer zuverlässigen Lösung für unsere Schiffstelefone und interessierten uns besonders für ein Tastsensor-Design. Da Altium Designer jetzt zusammen mit Atmel QTouch Studio eine integrierte Lösung bietet, rechnen wir damit, unsere PCB Designzeit um bis zu 80 % reduzieren zu können.”

Touch sensitive electronics are on the forefront of technology. By replacing mechanical buttons and switches, you can reduce physical wear and waterproofing issues all while turning what would have been an ordinary product into something new and innovative. But properly implementing these devices in your designs can become a huge challenge without the right resources. What can you do to easily integrate touch sensors into your design workflow?

Designing Complicated PCB Features Required for Touch Sensors

Adding a touch sensor to your electronic product is a process that starts at the beginning of a design, and extends to all phases. How you manage the configuration details of your touch sensor devices in the schematic can ultimately affect the final design, and you may be left with the tall task of redoing things from the start. Where do you find the resources you need to ensure you only have to do this once?

Tracking Down Hard-to-Find Touch Sensor Parts

Touch sensors are a modern design innovation, and finding the right parts can often be a challenge. The last thing you need is to finish the design process, then find out that the touch sensor you decided on is now obsolete, or is outrageously expensive. You’ll probably end up spending the next few nights and weekends going back to redo the work you’ve already finished once. What can you do to make sure the parts you need are available and affordable, before you start the design?

Taking Advantage of the Latest in Flexible Touch Sensing Technology

Touch sensors are being integrated more and more into electronics in our everyday lives. You need the tools to design for new and emerging touch sensing technology as it happens, and that could mean taking extra measures for flexibility, transparency, durability, or any number of other challenges. How do you design for the future of touch sensing technology?
