Touch Wheel and LED Tracking

TIDM-TOUCHWHEEL-LEDTRACKING

Design files

Overview

This solution implements a user interface with a capacitive touch wheel and LED tracking control. Using the MSP430G2955 microcontroller and capacitive touch wheel, users can design products that need volume, brightness, temperature adjustment with LED tracking for the touch postion.

Features
  • Single-chip solution for capacitive touch and LED control
  • Support for up to 24 channel LED drives with independent PWM outputs
  • LED breathing effect
  • LED tracking effect
  • Simple touch wheel design with three electrodes
  • Absolute position report with 8-bit resolution"
