Product details
Overview
CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB from Cypress Semiconductor is a multi-touch capacitive touchscreen controller featuring a 32-bit ARM® Cortex™ CPU, DualSense™ water rejection and wet-finger tracking, 28 sense I/O pins, 4.8-mm sensor pitch support, and 35-VPP charger noise immunity. It delivers up to 10-finger reporting at 300 Hz refresh rate for 5.0-inch diagonal displays in mobile handsets and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB datasheet, CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB pinout, CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB application, or CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB equivalent, key selection criteria include DualSense™ wet-finger capability, 44-pin QFN package compatibility, I²C interface timing, and 1.71–1.95-V digital supply operation.
Technical Context
The CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB implements a register-configurable capacitive sensing engine with hardware-accelerated mutual-capacitance scanning across 28 sense I/O lines, supporting Manhattan and diamond sensor patterns. Its DualSense™ architecture enables simultaneous self- and mutual-capacitance measurement for robust water rejection and glove operation.
ChargerArmor™ circuitry provides analog-domain suppression of 35-VPP charger noise without external filtering, while automatic baseline tracking adapts to temperature and humidity drift. The device uses external display synchronization signals to align touch acquisition with LCD frame timing, reducing display-induced noise.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-touch capacitive controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ATMXT224E-MAU | 22-sense I/O, no DualSense™, 20-VPP charger immunity, 3.3-V only supply | Lacks wet-finger tracking and advanced charger noise rejection; limited to dry-environment consumer tablets | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs water/glove requirements and panel size ≤4.3 inch |
| FT5436E6 | 48-sense I/O, no ChargerArmor™, requires external noise filtering, 1.8-V digital supply only | Higher node count but no integrated analog noise suppression; demands additional BOM components for charger noise | Select for larger panels (>5.5 inch) where external filtering design resources are available |
Compared with ATMXT224E-MAU and FT5436E6, the CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB uniquely integrates DualSense™ and ChargerArmor™ in a single 44-pin QFN, eliminating external analog filters and enabling reliable operation in wet, gloved, and high-noise charging environments.

FAQ
Does CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB support SPI communication?
No. Although the CYTMA445A product family includes SPI support in the 48-pin QFN variant, the 44-pin package (including -44LQI28AB) disables all SPI pins per datasheet Note 1. Only I²C at 100/400 kbps is functional in this configuration.
What is the maximum supported sensor pitch for CYTMA445A-44LQI28AB?
The device supports a maximum sensor pitch of 4.8 mm, validated for 5.0-inch diagonal displays with 16:9 aspect ratio and 22 × 14 node layout (308 intersections). Larger pitches degrade SNR and may cause missed touches or reduced finger resolution.
How does DualSense™ enable wet-finger tracking without calibration?
DualSense™ uses concurrent self- and mutual-capacitance measurements to distinguish water film (uniform self-capacitance shift) from finger contact (localized mutual-capacitance delta). This hardware-based discrimination operates autonomously without host-triggered recalibration cycles.
Is the exposed thermal pad (EPAD) required to be connected to ground?
Yes. The EPAD must be soldered to a solid PCB ground plane. It serves as both analog ground reference for the sensing front-end and primary thermal path. Floating or unconnected EPAD causes increased noise, baseline instability, and potential thermal shutdown under sustained operation.
