Cypress launches TrueTouch - CIOL News Reports

CALIFORNIA, USA: Representing a next-generation concept in multi-touch all-point technology, Cypress Semiconductor Corp has unveiled its new TrueTouch touchscreen controllers. The new product family - the TMA300 family - is based on the PSoC programmable system-on-chip architecture, the provider of mixed-signal, programmable solutions.

The TrueTouch family includes the CY8CTMA300E device with 32KB of Flash and the CY8CTMA301E device with 16KB of Flash. Both products are offered in 36 and 48-pin QFN packages and the CY8CTMA300E is also offered in a tiny 49-pin chip-scale package, the company has stated. The company while preferring not to disclose the pricing as yet, has pointed out that the devices have been sampling since early 2009.

Built to support tap, double-tap, pan, pinch, scroll and rotate, as well as giving developers a platform to create custom gestures without being constrained to two-finger touch, the TMA300 family deploys an integrated analogue sensing engine that offers a fast and accurate touchscreen user experience and allows tracking of multiple fingers simultaneously with precise x-y locations and without user delays or problems with erroneous responses, said a statement from the company.

Besides these features, the new family also will support other aspects such as low-cost 3mm passive stylus input, proximity detection. The company has said that it would also support a hover feature that meets the touch requirements of operating systems such as Symbian, Android, Windows Mobile and Windows 7.
