QTOUCH™ TOGGLE-MODE CHARGE-TRANSFER IC
WITH POWER MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS
This datasheet is applicable to all revision 2.3 chips
A unique 'Green' feature of the QT102 is the timeout function, which can turn
off power after a specified time delay ranging from minutes to hours.
Furthermore, external 'sustain' and 'cancel' functions permit designs where the
timeout needs to be extended further or terminated early. A user's interaction
with a product might trigger a 'sustain' input, prolonging the time to shutoff. A
safety sensor, such as a tip-over switch on a space heater, can feed the
'cancel' function to terminate early.

QT102_2R3.05_1007
1 Overview
A series resistor, Rs, should be placed in line with SNSK to
the electrode to suppress electrostatic discharge (ESD) and
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) effects.
1.1 Introduction
The QT102 is a single key device featuring a touch on / touch
off (toggle) output with a programmable auto switch-off
capability.
1.3 Sensitivity
The QT102 is a digital burst mode charge-transfer (QT)
sensor designed specifically for touch controls; it includes all
hardware and signal processing functions necessary to
provide stable sensing under a wide variety of changing
conditions. Only low cost, noncritical components are required
for operation.
The sensitivity of the QT102 is a function of such things as:
1.3.1 Introduction
The QT102 employs bursts of charge-transfer cycles to
acquire its signal. Burst mode permits power consumption in
the microamp range, dramatically reduces RF emissions,
lowers susceptibility to EMI, and yet permits excellent
response time. Internally the signals are digitally processed to
reject impulse noise, using a 'consensus' filter which requires
four consecutive confirmations of a detection before the output
is activated.
Figure 1.1 shows the sense electrode connections (SNS,
SNSK) for the QT102.

•
the thickness and composition of any overlaying panel
material
•
the degree of ground coupling of both sensor and
object
Ground planes around and under the electrode and its SNSK
trace will cause high Cx loading and destroy gain. The
possible signal-to-noise ratio benefits of ground area are more
than negated by the decreased gain from the circuit, and so
ground areas around electrodes are discouraged. Metal areas
near the electrode will reduce the field strength and increase
Cx loading and should be avoided, if possible. Keep ground
away from the electrodes and traces.

Cx
electrode size and capacitance
The value of Cs also has a dramatic effect on sensitivity, and
this can be increased in value with the trade-off of slower
response time and more power. Increasing the electrode's
surface area will not substantially increase touch sensitivity if
its diameter is already much larger in surface area than the
object being detected. Panel material can also be changed to
one having a higher dielectric constant, which will better help
to propagate the field.

•
In some cases it may be desirable to increase sensitivity; for
example, when using the sensor with very thick panels having
a low dielectric constant. Sensitivity can often be increased by
using a larger electrode or reducing panel thickness.
Increasing electrode size can have diminishing returns, as
high values of Cx will reduce sensor gain.

1.3.3 Decreasing Sensitivity
In some cases the QT102 may be too sensitive. In this case
gain can be easily lowered further by decreasing Cs.
For optimum noise immunity, the electrode should only be
connected to the SNSK pin.
1.4 Recalibration Timeout
In all cases the sample capacitor Cs should be much larger
than the load capacitance (Cx). Typical values for Cx are
5 - 20pF while Cs is usually 1 - 50nF.
If an object or material obstructs the sense electrode the
signal may rise enough to create a detection, preventing
further operation. To stop this, the sensor includes a timer
which monitors detections. If a detection exceeds the timer
setting (known as the Max On-duration) the sensor performs a
full recalibration. This does not toggle the output state but
ensures that the QT102 will detect a new touch correctly. The
timer is set to activate this feature after ~ 30s. This will vary
slightly with Cs.
Note: Cx is not a physical discrete component on the PCB, it
is the capacitance of the touch electrode and wiring. It is show
in Figure 1.1 to aid understanding of the equivalent circuit.
Increasing amounts of Cx destroy gain, therefore it is
important to limit the amount of load capacitance on both SNS
terminals. This can be done, for example, by minimizing trace
lengths and widths and keeping these traces away from power
or ground traces or copper pours.
The traces and any components associated with SNS and
SNSK will become touch sensitive and should be treated with
caution to limit the touch area to the desired location.

QT102_2R3.05_1007
The QT102 has no recalibration pin; a forced recalibration is
accomplished when the device is powered up, after the
recalibration timeout or when the auto-off override is released.
However, an obstruction over the sense pad, for which the
sensor has already made full allowance, could suddenly be
removed leaving the sensor with an artificially elevated
reference level and thus become insensitive to touch. In this
latter case, the sensor will compensate for the object's
removal very quickly, usually in only a few seconds.
However, supply drain is low so it is a simple matter to treat
the entire IC as a controllable load; driving the QT102's VDD
pin directly from another logic gate or a microcontroller port
will serve as both power and 'forced recal'. The source
resistance of most CMOS gates and microcontrollers are low
enough to provide direct power without problems.
With large values of Cs and small values of Cx, drift
compensation will appear to operate more slowly than with the
converse. Note that the positive and negative drift
compensation rates are different.
1.5 Forced Sensor Recalibration
1.7 Response Time
The QT102's response time is highly dependent on burst
length, which in turn is dependent on Cs and Cx. With
increasing Cs, response time slows, while increasing levels of
Cx reduce response time.
1.6 Drift Compensation
Signal drift can occur because of changes in Cx and Cs over
time. It is crucial that drift be compensated for, otherwise false
detections, nondetections, and sensitivity shifts will follow.
Drift compensation (Figure 1.2) is performed by making the
reference level track the raw signal at a slow rate, but only
while there is no detection in effect. The rate of adjustment
must be performed slowly, otherwise legitimate detections
could be ignored. The QT102 drift compensates using a
slew-rate limited change to the reference level; the threshold
and hysteresis values are slaved to this reference.
1.8 Spread Spectrum
The QT102 modulates its internal oscillator by ±7.5 percent
during the measurement burst. This spreads the generated
noise over a wider band reducing emission levels. This also
reduces susceptibility since there is no longer a single
fundamental burst frequency.
Once an object is sensed, the drift compensation
mechanism ceases since the signal is legitimately
high, and therefore should not cause the
reference level to change.
The QT102's drift compensation is 'asymmetric';
the reference level drift-compensates in one
direction faster than it does in the other.
Specifically, it compensates faster for decreasing
signals than for increasing signals. Increasing
signals should not be compensated for quickly,
since an approaching finger could be
compensated for partially or entirely before even
approaching the sense electrode.

2 Wiring and Parts
If desired, the supply can be regulated using a Low Dropout
(LDO) regulator. See Application Note AN-KD02 (see
Section 2.1) for further information on power supply
considerations.
2.1 Application Note
Refer to Application Note AN-KD02, downloadable from the
Quantum website for more information on construction and
design methods. Go to http://www.qprox.com, click the
Support tab and then Application Notes.
Suggested regulator manufacturers:
2.2 Cs Sample Capacitor
Cs is the charge sensing sample capacitor. The required Cs
value depends on the thickness of the panel and its dielectric
constant. Thicker panels require larger values of Cs. Typical
values are 1nF to 50nF depending on the sensitivity required;
larger values of Cs demand higher stability and better
dielectric to ensure reliable sensing.

•
Seiko (S817 series)
•
BCDSemi (AP2121 series)
Parts placement: The chip should be placed to minimize the
SNSK trace length to reduce low frequency pickup, and to
reduce Cx which degrades gain. The Cs and Rs resistors (see
Figure 2.1) should be placed as close to the body of the chip
as possible so that the trace between Rs and the SNSK pin is
very short, thereby reducing the antenna-like ability of this
trace to pick up high frequency signals and feed them directly
into the chip. A ground plane can be used under the chip and
the associated discretes, but the trace from the Rs resistor
and the electrode should not run near ground, to reduce
loading.
The Cs capacitor should be a stable type, such as X7R
ceramic or PPS film. For more consistent sensing from unit to
unit, 5 percent tolerance capacitors are recommended. X7R
ceramic types can be obtained in 5 percent tolerance at little
or no extra cost. In applications where high sensitivity (long
burst length) is required the use of PPS capacitors is
recommended.
For best EMC performance the circuit should be made entirely
with SMT components.
Electrode trace routing: Keep the electrode trace (and the
electrode itself) away from other signal, power, and ground
traces including over or next to ground planes. Adjacent
switching signals can induce noise onto the sensing signal;
any adjacent trace or ground plane next to, or under, the
electrode trace will cause an increase in Cx load and
desensitize the device.
2.3 Rs Resistor
Series resistor Rs is in line with the electrode connection and
should be used to limit ESD currents and to suppress radio
frequency interference (RFI). It should be approximately
4.7k
to 33k
.
Although this resistor may be omitted, the device may become
susceptible to external noise or RFI. For details of how to
select these resistors see the Application Note AN-KD02
(Section 2.1).
Important Note: for proper operation a 100nF (0.1µF)
ceramic bypass capacitor must be used directly between
VDD and VSS, to prevent latch-up if there are substantial
VDD transients; for example, during an ESD event. The
bypass capacitor should be placed very close to the
device’s power pins.
2.4 Power Supply, PCB Layout
The power supply can range between 2.0V and 5.5V. If the
power supply is shared with another electronic system, care
should be taken to ensure that the supply is free of digital
spikes, sags, and surges which can adversely affect the
device. The QT102 will track slow changes in VDD, but it can
be badly affected by rapid voltage fluctuations. It is highly
recommended that a separate voltage regulator be used just
for the QT102 to isolate it from power supply shifts caused by
other components.

The DI can also be viewed as a 'consensus' filter, that
requires four successive detections to create an output.
3.1 Acquisition Modes
3.2.2 Detect Threshold
3.1.1 Introduction
The device detects a touch when the signal has crossed a
threshold level. The threshold level is fixed at 10 counts.
The OUT pin of the QT102 can be configured to be active
high or active low (see Section 3.3).

If active high then
‘on’ is high
‘off’ is low
•
If active low then

3.3 Output Polarity Selection
The output (OUT pin) of the QT102 can be configured to have
an active high or active low output by means of the output
configuration resistor Rop. The resistor is connected between
the output and either Vss or VDD (see Figure 3.3 and
Table 3.1). A typical value for Rop is 100k
.
Figure 3.3 Output Polarity
The acquisition mode depends on the state of the OUT pin
(on or off) and whether a touch is detected. In the following
text ‘on’ is when the output is in its active state.

3.1.2 OUT Pin ‘On’ (Fast Mode)
The QT102 runs in Fast mode when the OUT pin is on. In this
mode the device runs at maximum speed at the expense of
increased current consumption. The delay between bursts in
Fast mode is approximately 2.6ms, as shown in Figure 3.1.

3.1.3 OUT Pin ‘Off’ (Low Power Mode)
The QT102 runs in Low Power (LP) mode if the OUT pin is off.
In this mode it sleeps for approximately 85ms at the end of
each burst, saving power but slowing response. On detecting
a possible key touch, it temporarily switches to Fast mode
until either the key touch is confirmed or found to be spurious
(via the detect integration process). If the touch is confirmed
the QT102 will switch to Fast mode as shown in Figure 3.2. If
a touch is denied the device will revert to normal LP mode
operation automatically.

It is desirable to suppress detections generated by electrical
noise or from quick brushes with an object. To accomplish
this, the QT102 incorporates a ‘detect integration’ (DI) counter
that increments with each detection until a limit is reached,
after which the output is activated. If no detection is sensed
prior to the final count, the counter is reset immediately to
zero. In the QT102, the required count is four.

4. Decide on a value for Rt or Ct (e.g.Ct = 47nF)
5. Calculate Rt = 7560 = 160k

While Vm is held in the override state the QT102 inhibits
bursts and waits for Vm to return to its original state. When
Vm returns to its original state the QT102 performs a sensor
recalibration before continuing in its current output state.
As an alternative to calculation, Figures 3.12 and 3.13 show
charts of typical curves of auto-off delay against resistor and
capacitor values for active high and active low outputs at
various values of VDD (delay multiplier = x1).

Example using a chart to calculate Rt and Ct
Requirements:
•
Active low output (Vop connected to VSS)
•
Auto-off delay 10 hours
•
VDD = 4V
1. Calculate Auto-off delay in seconds 10 x 60 x 60 = 36000. This value is outside of the range of the charts so use the x24
multiplier (connect Rm to VDD).
Note: this will decrease the key sensitivity, so it may be necessary to increase the value of Cs.
2. Find 36000 = 1500 on the 4V chart in Figure 3.13
24
3. This shows the following Rt / Ct combinations: 100nF / 10k, 47nF / 27k, 22nF / 60k or 10nF / 130k
Note: the Auto-off delay times shown are nominal and will vary slightly from chip to chip and with capacitor and resistor
tolerance.
