LDC2114: LDC2114 Inductive Touch Buttons EMI issue

Part Number: LDC2114

Hello,

we were measuring our system (demonstrator of 4 inductive touch buttons) in an EMC laboratory.

We didn't have any problems with emission, but failed at radiated immunity.

We tested two setups: The first one with 0.3mm SSL surface, and the second one with 0.5mm glass fascia and a very thin copper foil as target (less than 50 um)

The setup with 0.3mm SSL surface had no problems with radiation, but the glass-version failed. (I've attached a diagram of the Output Datas)

The output datas started to act up at 500MHz over a wide frequency range.

Why do these two systems behave so different? Its the same hardware, only the mechanical setup is different.

Kind regards,

Clemens
