Chapter 1. MTCH112 Overview
1.1
INTRODUCTION
The MTCH112 Evaluation Kit allows the user to implement up to two Touch and/or Proximity input channels
very quickly with many options to tune the MTCH112 device to meet user application requirements. The user
can alter multiple internal parameters that affect the chip’s sensitivity, response time, power consumption,
and behavior.

HARDWARE SETUP
Before using the board, it is necessary to connect some of the hardware elements included in the kit.
Described below are the hardware items required to correctly operate the board.
1.2.1
MTCH112 Controller Board
FIGURE 1-1:
MTCH112 MOTHERBOARD
Figure 1-1 shows the main board with the MTCH112 chip (U1 Chip on board). It handles every aspect of the
touch input process. It expects a capacitive touch sensor on the female 12-pin header connector to the right
of the U1 chip. Either of the sensor boards included in the package can be connected to the controller board.
Alternatively, the user can connect up to two sensors to the pins labeled I0 and I1 on the PCB.
DS40001773B-page 11
2014-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
MTCH112 Evaluation Kit User’s Guide
To the left of the U1 chip, the board has a 6-pin header connector labeled ‘Comm Interface’, mainly used to
allow the input sensing application to communicate with a host system. The connector’s pins are assigned
to accommodate PICKit™ Serial Analyzer communications (Figure 1-2). This feature allows the board not
only to report its sensor state information in real time, but to be controlled and configured by a host device
at any time. The MTCH112 and the evaluation board use I2C™ protocol involving only two signals (SCL and
SDA, as highlighted below). For a full set of I2C commands and related timings, please refer to the
MTCH112 data sheet (DS41668) at www.microchip.com/mtch112.
FIGURE 1-2:
PICKit™ SERIAL ANALYZER CONNECTOR PIN MAPPING
The MTCH112 Evaluation Board can be powered by applying 3.3V to pin 2 of the communication connector,
or by connecting an already powered USB cable.
Once it is powered, the board is operational. This can be easily checked by connecting one of the sensor
boards and directly touching a sensor. A touch should light the red LED (D1) on the controller board.
1.2.2
MTCH112 Sensor Boards
The Evaluation Kit comes with one Touch (with two sensors) daughter board (below left) and one proximity
sensor daughter board (below right) as shown in Figure 1-3.
FIGURE 1-3:
MTCH112 KIT SENSOR BOARDS
The Proximity sensor board has a built-in guard ring that can be driven by the MTCH112 controller to maximize the sensitivity.
DS40001773B-page 12
2014-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
MTCH112 Overview
FIGURE 1-4:
PICKit™ SERIAL ANALYZER
The optional PICKit Serial Communication interface (Figure 1-4) is not part of the evaluation kit. It is sold
separately and available on microchipDIRECT (DV164122). This communication interface device becomes
necessary when the MTCH112 Windows® GUI is used. The PICKit Serial Analyzer allows bridging I2C (and
more) to USB, a popular communication hardware to personal computers in general and PC/Windows in
particular.
The PICKit Serial Analyzer should be connected on one end to the 6-pin header connector of the MTCH112
controller board, and the other end to a USB port of a Windows computer.
With all these items connected, the board should be fully operational and ready to communicate with the
Windows-based MTCH112 GUI.
1.3
MTCH112 GUI
After installing and running Microchip’s MTCH112 GUI, the user is presented with power setting options
(Figure 1-5) if the controller board is not yet powered through the USB connector.

G: Product Reset Area
H: GUI Miscellaneous (storage and configuration)
I: Plot Control
1.3.1
Sensor Control and Configuration (Area A)
FIGURE 1-8:
SENSOR CONTROL AND CONFIGURATION AREA (A)
This area specifies whether the MTCH112 controller is managing a single sensor (default sensor 0) or two
by enabling or disabling sensor 1, respectively.
A calibration of each sensor can be started using the Calibration checkbox. The system shows ‘Completed’
once the calibration of the controller is complete.
The MTCH112 controller automatically selects the acquisition waveform type during the calibration process
and notifies the GUI.
1.3.2
Input Sensing Output Pin Configuration (Area B)
FIGURE 1-9:
INPUT SENSING OUTPUT PIN CONFIGURATION (B)
The MTCH112 controller uses a single interrupt output pin to notify the host about the detection of a new
event on one or more of its sensors. This area allows the user to specify which events the MTCH112 controller generates notification about.
Once the host system gets the new event detection notification, an I2C command should be issued to read
the button state mask, which provides what event type and which sensor generated the event.
2014-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS40001773B-page 15
MTCH112 Evaluation Kit User’s Guide
1.3.3
Input Sensing System Configuration (Area C)
FIGURE 1-10:
INPUT SENSING SYSTEM CONFIGURATION AREA (C)
This area allows the user to interact with the system parameters which affect the way Touch Input Sensing
behaves. Following is a list of parameters controlled by this area.
1.3.3.1
SLEEP TIME
This control specifies the time between two scans. This directly affects the application power consumption
and response time. The user can choose a value from 1 millisecond to 256 seconds Sleep Time.
1.3.3.2
SYSTEM CLOCK
The user can set the controller’s main clock to either 16 MHz or 32 MHz, depending on whether the
application primarily requires performance (32 MHz) or lower power consumption (16 MHz).
1.3.3.3
PRESS THRESHOLD
When a sensor is used as a button, the user can specify the minimum value for the readings beyond which
the MTCH112 controller considers that the button is in the Pressed state. One way to determine a good
value for the threshold is to perform a few touches and check the maximum value of the shift (Area E). The
threshold can be set to a percentage of the maximum shift.
Another parameter that should be considered when setting the threshold value is the noise level. The
threshold value should be set above the highest level of noise to avoid false button triggers due to noise.
1.3.3.4
PROXIMITY THRESHOLD
Same as above, but for Proximity detection.
1.3.3.5
BUTTON-PRESS TIME-OUT
When a button is detected as pressed, the system uses a time-out mechanism before forcing this button to
a Released state, in case the button is pressed for too long. This feature helps prevent stuck buttons. Setting 0 instructs the application to never time out.
DS40001773B-page 16
2014-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
MTCH112 Overview
1.3.3.6
I2C™ ADDRESS
The MTCH112 controller uses I2C protocol (and bus) to communicate with a host controller. In the case
where multiple MTCH112 controllers are used in the same system, or the MTCH112 is used on an I2C bus
where its slave address is already assigned to another device, the user has the ability to assign a new I2C
address to the MTCH112 to avoid any conflict. This is done by specifying a new hexadecimal value in this
control box.
1.3.4
Real-Time Sensor Status (Area D)
FIGURE 1-11:
REAL-TIME SENSOR STATUS AREA (D)
This area depicts the actual state of the active sensors managed by the MTCH112 controller, using colored
buttons.
The absence of any button indicates its Released state.
A Green button shows an actual Press.
A Yellow button shows a Proximity detection event.
Any other type of button shown would mean a problem with the sensor (e.g., shorted) or an unrecognized
state.
1.3.5
Real-Time Sensor Information (Area E)
FIGURE 1-12:
REAL-TIME SENSOR INFORMATION AREA (E)
For each active sensor, this area displays the latest raw value, current baseline value (which reflects the
environment), and keeps track of the highest raw value observed since the start of the application or the
maximum values were reset.
The last control button on the far right side of this area resets the maximum raw values recorded to date.
The system will then start tracking the next maximum value it sees.
2014-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS40001773B-page 17
MTCH112 Evaluation Kit User’s Guide
1.3.6
The Plot (Area F)
This section of the GUI is responsible for acquiring the real-time data sent by the MTCH112 controller, and
representing it as a continuous plot allowing the user to easily track any change on the sensors’ signals.
The red line represents Sensor0’s signal and the green line represents Sensor1’s signal.
The dotted graph lines (with the same color convention) track each sensor’s baseline over time.
FIGURE 1-13:
1.3.7
GUI PLOT AREA (F)
Product Reset (Area G)
FIGURE 1-14:
PRODUCT RESET AREA (G)
Touch systems can get very complex based on the number of parameters they involve in order to get them
to operate at their optimum performance. Each parameter can have significant impact on the system’s performance.
The GUI allows the user to reset the system to its factory configuration by clicking the control button shown
above.
DS40001773B-page 18

MTCH112 Overview
1.3.8
Application Configuration and Data Log (Area H)
FIGURE 1-15:
APPLICATION AND DATA LOG AREA (H)
This area provides four buttons for control of miscellaneous functions for the GUI and the Input Sensing
application. The button functions will be considered from left to right.
1.3.8.1
READING AN mTouch™ CONFIGURATION
FIGURE 1-16:
RECALLING A PREVIOUSLY SAVED CONFIGURATION
The user has the ability to save all parameters at any time and recall from the computer’s Hard Disk Drive
(HDD) and set them into the MTCH112 controller.
1.3.8.2
SAVING THE CURRENT mTouch CONFIGURATION
FIGURE 1-17:
SAVING CURRENT mTouch™ CONFIGURATION
This button saves all current parameter values to the computer’s hard drive.
1.3.8.3
LOGGING THE REAL-TIME DATA
FIGURE 1-18:
LOGGING REAL-TIME DATA
In some cases, in order to track the Input System’s performance, a significant amount of information is
required. The GUI offers to save all sensor data in an Excel File format (CSV) for easy data analysis.
The button shown above, when pressed, will open the following window, expecting the user to make a few
choices before starting the data recording.
2014-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS40001773B-page 19
MTCH112 Evaluation Kit User’s Guide
FIGURE 1-19:
REAL-TIME LOG CONFIGURATION
The user can specify a CSV file name and location, required to start the recording process using the
checkbox at the top of the window.
When the user presses the Done button, the window closes and the recording starts and runs in the background.
The user can then at any time press this button again and simply deselect the checkbox at the top (which
should read ‘Running’) to stop the recording process and access the Excel file for analysis.
1.3.8.4
ADJUSTING THE PLOT AREA
FIGURE 1-20:
ZOOMING INTO AND OUT OF THE PLOT AREA
Zooming in and out of the graph representation of the data can be performed using the button shown above.
When clicked, the GUI grants the user with the following window where the zooming range can be set.
FIGURE 1-21:
ZOOM SETTINGS
The X-values basically specify how many Raw Data samples are graphed in the visible area. The values
above show that the GUI is displaying the values of 1000 samples at any time. It also shows that it is displaying samples from 0 to 1000.
The Y-values simply specify which range of data will be taken into account for display. The values shown
above instruct the plot window to only display Raw Readings between 600 and 16000 counts.
The user can finally either activate these values by pressing ‘Set’ or ignore them and keep whichever values
the GUI was previously using by pressing ‘Forget’.

MTCH112 Overview
1.3.9
The Plot Control Area
At the top of the plot area a grey toolbar allows control of how the plotter behaves. Below is a description of
the different buttons.
FIGURE 1-22:
1.3.9.1
AUTO-SCROLL CHECKBOX
In reality, two different types of controls allow interaction with the scrolling: The Autoscroll checkbox and
the Play button.
FIGURE 1-23:
THE AUTO-SCROLL CHECKBOX
The Auto-scroll checkbox, which activates and de-activates the automatic calculation of the scrolling speed
(which depends on the rate at which the data gets to the GUI), allows the plot window to keep up with the
latest data to be plotted at the right side of the plot area.
When Auto-scroll is unchecked, the plot window will keep scrolling, at the speed set by the ‘Playback
Speed’ slider.
1.3.9.2
PLAY BUTTON
FIGURE 1-24:
THE PLAY BUTTON
This button enables the scrolling of the display. It reads the speed value set by the ‘Playback Speed’ slider
and starts the scrolling through the data from the current position and to the right of the display.
