Atmel QTouch Library User Guide Rev. 8207C-AT42-06/09 1 Introduction The Atmel’s QTouch™ Library provides support for both IAR ™ and GCC compilers for capacitive keys, rotors, and sliders in Atmel ® firmware applications. It is provided as a library file and C header file for linking with user code. This guide explains the library operation, and how it is used in firmware applications. This guide should be read in conjunction with the following documents: • Atmel’s QTouch Library Overview • Atmel’s QTouch Library Datasheet 2 Adding Touch Sensing to an Application 2.1 Introduction The Atmel QTouch Library is added to an application by linking in the library file, including the library header file, and calling the functions defined in the application programming interface (API). Figure 1-1 shows a typical configuration how the channels are configured to the microcontroller based on Atmel’s touch technology (QTouch and QMatrix™), in which the Atmel® QTouch Library has been added to a host application running on an an Atmel AVR microcontroller. The library supports eight touch channels numbered 0 to 7. Channels 0 to 2 have been configured as a rotor sensor, channels 3 to 5 have been configured as a slider sensor, and channels 6 and 7 are configured as key sensors. The host application calls the library to configure these sensors, and to make and process capacitive measurements.
