This design demonstrates a kitchen range hood that utilizes Renesas’ capacitive touch sensing technology (CTSU) for touchless control. The RA2 MCU series provides a complete solution in a single chip thanks to the integrated 16-bit SAR ADC, 24-bit sigma-delta ADC, touch control, and lower power performance. Additionally, the combination of high-performance power and analog systems from Renesas’ LDOs, op amps and triacs can be utilized in other home appliances (washing machines, IH cooking heaters) that require touch panel functionality.
