LDS6025
PureTouch™ Capacitance Touch IC with
Integrated Keypad LED Drivers
The LDS6025 PureTouch™ controller empowers system designers to create streamlined, attractive and
reliable product designs with capacitive touch controls. Integrated LED drivers allow visual feedback to
be implemented when a touch occurs, without the need for host intervention.
Description
LDS6025 Features
The LDS6025 is a programmable capacitance-to-digital converter (CDC) designed for use with capacitive
sensor arrays implementing touch-based input controls including sliders, scroll wheels, and buttons.
Versatile, accurate capacitance-
to-digital converter (CDC)
•ꢀ 500ꢀkHzꢀsigma-deltaꢀCDC
Featuring 10 sensor inputs, 5 of which are dual-purpose I/Os configurable as either capacitive sensor
inputs or keypad LED drivers, the LDS6025 provides the flexibility to implement multiple touch inputs with
integrated lighting effects using a single controller.
•ꢀ 10ꢀcapacitanceꢀsensorꢀinputꢀchannels
•ꢀ 2ꢀmsꢀupdateꢀrateꢀperꢀactiveꢀsensor
When configured for capacitive sensing, the I/Os are directed through an integrated switch matrix to a
500 kHz sigma-delta CDC which senses changes in the external sensor array. When a sufficiently large
change in capacitance occurs, a sensor activation is registered and the host processor is notified. LED
lighting effects are automatically initiated by a touch event with no processor intervention required.

On-chip calibration logic continuously monitors the environment and automatically adjusts on-and-off
threshold levels to prevent false sensor activation. The LDS6025 is offered with both SPI-compatible and
I2C-compatible interfaces (active interface selected by I/F select pin) and features a general-purpose input/
output (GPIO) and interrupt output for additional communication with the host processor.
