28 Document No. 001-64846 Rev. *A Getting Started with CapSense®
Devices from the CapSense Express family are fully configurable and do not require any firmware development on
the CapSense controller itself. These devices are appropriate for systems where the finger touch data is sent to a
host for higher level processing. Such a system is shown in Figure 2-32.
Figure 2-32. Example CapSense Express System Implementation
Devices from the CapSense and CapSense Plus families are fully programmable. These devices allow complex
system level integration. These controllers can process the raw count data as well as perform other system functions.
See the CapSense Product Portfolio and Selector Guide for additional details. Cypress’s PSoC Designer™
accommodates firmware development in C and assembly language. Refer to Resources for more information on this
