Renesas’ RL78/L23 16-bit MCUs provide LCD control and capacitive touch for responsive HMIs in smart appliances, electronics, ...

Capacitive touch sensors are entirely in the domain of DIY, requiring little more than a carefully-chosen conductive surface and a microcontroller. This led [John Phillips] to ask why not embed such ...

Renesas introduces ultra-low-power RL78/L23 MCUs with segment LCD displays and capacitive touch for HMI applications in smart ...

VW faces a new lawsuit over its use of capacitive touch controls. The lawsuit claims that the touch areas on the steering wheel are too easy to activate and have become safety hazards. At least one VW ...

Renesas Electronics Corporation, a supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, has introduced the new 16-bit RL78/L23 microcontroller (MCU) group, expanding ...

Renesas Electronics has introduced the new 16-bit RL78/L23 microcontroller (MCU) group, expanding its low-power RL78 family.

The MCUs come with SMS (SNOOZE Mode Sequencer), which allows dynamic LCD segment display without CPU intervention. By offloading tasks to the SMS, the devices minimise CPU wake-ups and contribute to ...

Even when they were brand new, capacitive touch buttons on the steering wheel didn't seem like the greatest idea, but Volkswagen soldiered on, and now it's getting sued over them. A new class action ...

Many people struggle with monitors that don’t meet their needs, such as poor touch sensitivity, low resolution, or inability to handle multiple tasks smoothly. These issues can slow down productivity ...

Volkswagen’s mistake with capacitive steering wheel buttons has come back to haunt the automaker—this time in the form of a class-action lawsuit. Volkswagen is facing a potential class-action lawsuit ...
