Touchscreen and Touchpad Controllers for Challenging Environments


Our maXTouch® touchscreen controllers use unique and patented sensing algorithms for robust and reliable touch operation in the most challenging environments. With excellent immunity to water and electromagnetic noise and the ability to detect touch through thick gloves or front panels, these touchscreen controllers are well suited for touch Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) in automotive, home appliance, point-of-sale, medical and industrial applications.

maXTouch touchscreen controllers are ready-to-go solutions that offer a common architecture, come with pre-programmed firmware and support screen sizes up to 45”. If your home appliance design requires functional safety certification, we offer pre-certified devices targeting the IEC/UL 60730 Class B standard. For automotive and avionic applications, we provide devices with smart diagnostic features that are supported by Failure Modes, Effects, and Diagnostic Analysis (FMEDA) reports and safety manuals targeting ISO 26262 and Development Assurance Level A (DAL A) certifications. These dedicated touchscreen controllers are also excellent options for use in medical, marine and other industrial applications.

Reduce design risk and development time with the maXTouch Studio and Analyzer tools combined with our worldwide technical support team. Leverage our global touch module partner network to take your design concept to mass production.
