Bare Die Product Detail: MS8883A

Proximity Switch:
The MS8883A capacitive switch digitally detects capacitance change on a remote sensing plate. Static capacitance changes are automatically compensated using continuous auto-calibration. Remote sensing plates connect to the IC via coaxial cable.
The MS8883 offers designers a high degree of flexibility with configurable output and wide 3V to 9V operating voltage range and also demonstrates low power consumption. Bare die form provides smallest form factor for integration.
Features:
  • Dynamic proximity switch with configurable output
  • Digital processing method
  • Automatic calibration
  • Open-drain output (P-type MOSFET, external load between pin and ground)
  • Sensing plates can be connected remotely
  • Designed for battery powered applications (IHI typical 3µA)
  • Large voltage operating range (VHI = 3 to 9V)
  • Adjustable response time and sensitivity
  • Output configurable as push-button, toggle or pulse
  • Internal voltage regulator including 4V 0.5mA output pin to power external components.

Applications:

  • Hermetically sealed keys on a keyboard
  • Switch for medical applications
  • Switch for use in explosive environments
  • Vandal proof switches
  • Automotive: Switches in or under upholstery, leather, handles, mats and glass
  • Portable entertainment units
  • Buildings: Switch in or under carpets, glass or tiles
  • Sanitary applications: Use of standard metal sanitary parts (e.g. tap) as switch.
