Our Arm® Cortex®-M0+ Automotive PSOC™Automotive 4 S offers a high-quality capacitive sensing solution with the highest reliability and lowest power consumption.

Infineon's PSOC™ Automotive 4 S series with its 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M0+ microcontrollers consists of five different product families: PSOC™ 4000S, PSOC™ 4100S, PSOC™ 4100S Plus, PSOC™ 4100S Max, and PSOC™ 4700S Plus. This MCU series extends the portfolio by offering higher flash and SRAM capacity, as well as additional features like crypto, CAN FD, and the latest generation of capacitive sensing technology.

With the introduction of a new fifth generation of the popular CAPSENSE™ technology in PSOC™ 4100S Max, the products are enabled to provide superior SNR and a very low noise floor, as well as high-speed scanning of multiple sensor nodes while maintaining sufficient processing capacity to implement a complete HMI application.

The S series also provides the industry’s first microcontroller with inductive sensing and capacitive sensing technology in a single chip through its PSOC™ 4700S Plus family. The inductive sensing technology enables the sensing of metal objects and the industry-leading capacitive sensing technology (CAPSENSE™) enables the sensing of non-metallic objects.
