Capacitive Sensor IC Evaluation and Development Kits

Alps Alpine’s Capacitive Sensor ICs support a broad range of applications, including gesture control, proximity detection, and liquid level sensing. Check out our lineup of evaluation and development kits supporting development for certain applications.

*The appearance of evaluation kits is subject to change, though this will not affect their functionality.

Evaluation/Development Kits – Applications and Types

We have kits supporting the following applications. Select a suitable kit for the intended application.

Kit Types

Here we introduce the following two types of kit.

IC evaluation kits
Kits for evaluating basic IC performance, making it easy to see how ICs work
Firmware development kits
Kits for developing firmware for microcontrollers with built-in capacitive ICs. They include IC evaluation features.
Gesture Control and Proximity Detection
