Product details
Overview
TMA463-48LQI from Cypress Semiconductor is a Gen4 TrueTouch® touchscreen controller IC featuring 45-sense I/O, 10 V Tx drive, and integrated ARM Cortex-M3 processor for real-time touch processing. It delivers 0.5 mm typical linearity, 4.5 µW deep-sleep power, and supports up to 6-inch displays in on-cell/in-cell stackups with Display Sync and Charger Armor™ noise suppression.
For engineers reviewing the TMA463-48LQI datasheet, TMA463-48LQI pinout, TMA463-48LQI application, or TMA463-48LQI equivalent, key selection criteria include mutual/self-capacitance dual-sensing capability, glove/stylus/face detection support, 150 Hz refresh rate, and QFN-48L package compatibility with display-integrated lamination designs.
Technical Context
The TMA463-48LQI implements patented DUALSENSE™ architecture enabling dynamic switching between self- and mutual-capacitance sensing on a single die-critical for simultaneous multi-touch tracking and waterproofing without added films. Its ARM Cortex-M3 core executes firmware at 150 Hz, supporting real-time signal processing for passive stylus and gloved-finger inputs.
Charger Armor™ uses adaptive non-linear filtering and frequency hopping to suppress both periodic and broadband charger noise; Display Sync aligns scan timing with display vertical blanking intervals, eliminating need for shield layers in direct-lamination designs.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar touchscreen controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TMA445-48LQI | Gen4X family; 36-sense I/O, 15 V Tx, no face detection support. | Optimized for smaller screens (≤5") with higher Tx voltage but reduced multi-touch channel count. | Select when screen size ≤5" and face detection is not required; offers lower system cost for compact UIs. |
| TMA768-84BGA | Gen4 family; 56-sense I/O, 5 V Tx, no Charger Armor™, BGA-84 package. | Targets larger tablets (≤8") where display noise dominates over charger noise; lacks adaptive noise suppression. | Choose for cost-sensitive large-screen designs where charger noise immunity is secondary to electrode count. |
Compared with TMA445-48LQI and TMA768-84BGA, the TMA463-48LQI uniquely balances 45-channel scalability, 10 V noise-resilient drive, and full Gen4 feature set-including face detection and Display Sync-in a compact QFN-48L package ideal for mid-size mobile and industrial displays.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported display size for TMA463-48LQI?
The TMA463-48LQI supports touch panels up to 6 inches diagonal, as confirmed in Cypress's Gen4 family documentation and validated in reference designs using 5.5-inch and 6.0-inch on-cell LCDs with 45-sense I/O routing.
Does TMA463-48LQI require an external crystal or oscillator?
No. The TMA463-48LQI integrates a precision internal RC oscillator for system clock generation and does not require an external crystal; only external decoupling capacitors and I²C pull-ups are mandatory for basic operation.
Can TMA463-48LQI operate without firmware updates in production?
Yes. The device ships with factory-programmed firmware supporting all core features (glove, stylus, Charger Armor™). Field firmware updates are optional for feature enhancements-not required for baseline functionality or qualification.
Is the exposed thermal pad on the QFN-48L package electrically connected?
Yes. The exposed pad is internally tied to VSSA (analog ground) and must be soldered to a PCB thermal pad connected to the system's analog ground plane to ensure EMI performance and thermal stability per Cypress layout guidelines.
