Touch sensing helps increase product lifetimes by eliminating mechanical wear and tear associated with buttons and switches. Our Xtrinsic touch-sensing software gives over 1,000 MCUs in our portfolio the flexibility to add cost-effective touch-sensing functionality.

Xtrinsic touch-sensing software transforms any standard MCU into a touch sensor with the ability to manage multiple configurations of touch pads, sliders, rotary positions and mechanical keys, all while maintaining standard MCU functionality.
