Ratings and Specifications
* ”Detected capacitance” refers to the detected capacitance value when capacitance is applied between the electrode and the ground terminal of
the touch sensor circuit.
Output Circuit Diagram
* We recommend connecting the FG terminal to a stable potential on the device’s frame ground.
