The AT42QT1060-MMUR is a single channel capacitive touch sensor designed to detect variation of capacitance due to a human finger (or stylus). It is Integrated with a Microcontroller Unit (MCU) and it can be used with a wide range of materials, such as glass and plastics, for proximity and touch sensing applications. The AT42QT1060-MMUR can detect when no capacitance is present, it can detect when the capacitance is present and it can detect the change in capacitance when the finger is moving on the sensing surface. It is a low cost, low power, high performance capacitive touch controller.

The AT42QT1060-MMUR is an integrated circuit which consists of several components, such as oscillators, analog front end, low-noise amplifier and filters, capacitive touch channels, electrodes, and detection algorithm. The oscillators are used for the modulation and demodulation of the signal, and for synchronizing the data acquisition. The low-noise amplifier and filter amplify the signal for better resolution, and the capacitive touch channels measure the capacitance of the sensing surface. The electrodes, on the other hand, measure the capacitance of the reference plate. The detection algorithm circuit is used to determine if a finger is present on the sensing surface.

The AT42QT1060-MMUR is designed to operate in both proximity and touch mode. In proximity mode, the sensor is able to detect a finger within a few millimeters of the sensing surface. In touch mode, the sensor is able to detect small changes in capacitance due to finger movements. It has an adjustable sensitivity, which means that the user can select the optimal detection sensitivity level to their application. The AT42QT1060-MMUR also features a low power consumption mode, allowing it to be used for extended periods without draining the battery. The AT42QT1060-MMUR is optimized for portable and low-power applications, such as touchpad, gaming controllers, switches, remote controls, and industial control.

In order to use the AT42QT1060-MMUR, the user will first need to connect the microcontroller with it. Then the microcontroller must be programmed to read the capacitance values through the AT42QT1060-MMUR. The microcontroller can then compare the capacitance values with a predetermined threshold to determine if there is a finger present or not. If a finger is present, then the user can program the microcontroller to perform an action. For example, in a touchpad application, the user can program the microcontroller to move the cursor in response to finger movements.

The AT42QT1060-MMUR is a robust sensor which is perfect for use in a wide range of capacitive proximity and touch sensing applications. It has a wide operating temperature range, and it is resistant to EMI, RFI and electrical surges. Its low power consumption makes it ideal for battery-operated applications, and its automatic sleep mode ensures minimum power consumption when the sensing surface is not in use. The AT42QT1060-MMUR is also characterized by fast response time and an adjustable sensitivity, making it ideal for any application requiring quick and accurate capacitive sensing.
