Future Electronics recommends Infineon PSoC™ 4000T microcontroller to enable breakthrough low-power touch solution

Shanghai, China – April 9, 2024 – In the pursuit of innovation, Infineon once again leads the industry with the launch of the groundbreaking PSoC™ 4000T microcontroller . Future Electronics, a world-renowned authorized distributor of electronic components, now offers PSoC™ 4000T series products with excellent signal-to-noise ratio, waterproof performance and multi-mode sensing functions for various low-power touch applications, and provides free development board application services for a limited time.

The PSoC™ 4000T microcontrollers extend the PSoC™ 4 family of Arm® Cortex-M0®+ microcontrollers and feature Infineon’s 5th generation high-performance CAPSENSE™ capacitive sensing technology. Infineon’s 5th generation CAPSENSE™ technology delivers 10x better SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) performance while reducing power consumption by 10x compared to previous generations of CAPSENSE™.

The PSoC™ 4000T family provides an easy upgrade path for PSoC™ 4000 and PSoC™ 4000S designs through software and package compatibility, leveraging advanced 5th generation CAPSENSE™. The PSoC™ 4000T family supports a wide range of low-power applications including wearables, hearables, and smart connected IoT devices.

Future Electronics is now offering the CY8CPROTO-040T - PSoC™ 4000T CAPSENSE™ Prototyping Kit for free for a limited time. The development kit demonstrates the low-power operation and always-on sensing capabilities of the 5th generation CAPSENSE™. The kit is equipped with self-capacitive button, mutual-capacitive button, and self-capacitive slider operation, and provides access to all I/O pins to facilitate the development and evaluation of other circuits, including custom capacitive sensing boards.
