3.9 Internal Algorithms

Inductive Touch LDC devices such as the LDC2114 and LDC3114 include internal algorithms and can automatically process sensor measurements and indicate when button presses have occurred without any MCU resources. These algorithms provide compensation for environmental shifts, variations in button actuation force, and configurable scan rates to provide faster button response to presses or to minimize supply current.
