MSP430I2021: capacitive touch

S.L

Part Number: MSP430I2021

Does anyone know if the capsense library can be used to provide capacitive touch on an MSP430i part? I've found vague references that the library can be used on many msp parts, but nothing specific in the MSP430i2021 datasheet.

Thanks,

Hello SL,

For capacitive touch I highly recommend you to use our MSP430 devices with CapTIvate capacitive touch peripheral.

You can find more information from these links:
