PCAP Touch Panels

RELEC’s range of PCAP touch panels is suitable for applications from commercial grade to high end medical, industrial and defence. We have solutions with noise immunity up to 32V/m which suit medical, automotive and avionic applications. In fact anywhere where operation and reliability are mission-critical. Projective capacitive touch panels (PCAP) offer the most responsive, sensitive and durable type of touch screen technology.

The PCAP sensor is constructed from a grid of conductive material which is layered on sheets of glass. An electrostatic field is then created once a voltage is applied. When a conductive object (e.g. finger) comes into contact with the sensor, the PCAP controller measures the change in capacitance at that point which is then accurately converted to the X and Y coordinates.

Because a PCAP panel senses a touch by projection through an outer layer, this means that the top cover lens can be constructed from strengthened glass. This makes it the perfect solution for outdoor or harsh applications.

We at Relec Electronics aim to find the best solution for your application. Our fully-trained technical staff has the knowledge to help you from sourcing and manufacturing. We carry most Display items in stock, so get in touch today.

In addition to supplying standard panels, we also have the ability to offer a range of enhancements to improve the optical, mechanical and environmental performance of your display.
