Alps Alpine commences external sales of ICs

Alps Alpine announced the commencement of external sales of ICs, which were formerly designed and developed only for internal use in in-house manufactured products, under the Alps Alpine brand. As a first step, Alps Alpine has developed the HSLCMB series ICs that incorporate a capacitance measurement circuit and 32-bit CPU to enable capacitive sensing with higher sensitivity and noise robustness than their conventional products and has commenced domestic and international promotions. The HSLCMB series is applicable to a wide range of applications, including touchless operation, automotive touch panels, and liquid level sensors.
