MSC Technologies has released the new DITO sensors of GE Star. DITO (Double sided ITO) is a 0.55 mm thick glass substrate, with ITO layer on both top and bottom side. The advantages compared to foil/foil ITO are both technical and there is a price difference to the advantage of these sensors.

Using DITO together with S type controllers offers a good performing touch at a competitive price structure. For implementation of controllers as chipset on mainboards, MSC offers kits of maxTouch controllers with USB-RS232 bridge.

GE-Star Projected Capacitive touch sensors allow the use of a customised front glass, which may contain up to 1 cm thickness and thus fits for any application from a mobile data logger to a cash point.

Dito sensors are additionally distinguished by an extremely strong adhesion of the FPC to the sensor, an extended temperature range and a very linear behaviour. Since the sensor has only one layer ensures a high transmission. The compliant touch controller work with a burst voltage of up to +10.4 V, allowing extreme immunity to EMC critical conditions together with sophisticated algorithms.
