FAQ
What is the maximum supported touchscreen size for CYAT81685-128AS88?
The device supports up to 10.1-inch diagonal displays with full 1024 × 1024 resolution scanning, enabled by its 64 Tx/64 Rx channel architecture and on-chip scan engine capable of >100 kHz per-channel sampling. Physical size limit depends on sensor electrode pitch and trace routing, not internal memory or processing bandwidth.
Does CYAT81685-128AS88 require an external crystal oscillator?
No. The device integrates a factory-trimmed 48 MHz internal oscillator sufficient for USB 2.0 Full-Speed timing and CapSense scanning. An optional external 24 MHz crystal may be used for enhanced USB jitter performance but is not required for basic operation or I²C/SPI interfaces.
Can CYAT81685-128AS88 operate with gloves?
Yes. Its CapSense® engine supports thick-glove operation (up to 3 mm synthetic leather) through programmable sensitivity gain and adaptive baseline tracking. Glove mode is activated automatically via signal amplitude analysis and does not require host MCU intervention.
