Hello  everyone,  hope  you  all  are  fine

and having fun with your lives. Today, I

am  going  to  share  a  new  Capacitive

touch  Sensor  Library  for  Proteus,

which  is  designed  for  the  first  time  by

our  team.   Capacitive  Touch  Sensor

is  used  to  sense  the  presence  of  a

human finger on the sensor.

We  all  know  that  human  carries  a  charge  so  using  that  charge  these  touch  sensors

work.  If  you  wanna  read  more  about  the  Capacitive  Touch,  then  you  should  read  its

details Wiki Page. They have given a detailed explanation of How it works. Anyways,

these  sensors  are  available  these  days  online  and  you  can  easily  buy  them.  I  have

designed  its  Proteus  Library  which  I  am  presenting  today  for  free  to  our  readers.  I

hope  you  guys  are  gonna  enjoy  while  working  on  it.    So,  let’s  get  started  with

Capacitive Touch Sensor Library for Proteus:

Capacitive Touch Sensor Library for Proteus

First  of  all,  click  on  the  below  button  to  download  Capacitive  Touch  Sensor
Library for Proteus:

When you download the files, you will get three files, named as:

TouchSensorTEP.LIB

TouchSensorTEP.IDX

TouchSensorTEP.HEX

Place all these three files in the library folder of your Proteus software.

Note:

If  you  are  using  Proteus  7  Professional,  then  the  library  folder  link
will  be  something  like  this:  C:Program  Files  (x86)Labcenter
ElectronicsProteus 7 ProfessionalLIBRARY

If  you  are  using  Proteus  8  Professional,  then  the  library  folder  link
will  be  something  like  this:  C:ProgramDataLabcenter
ElectronicsProteus 8 ProfessionalDataLIBRARY

Now  restart  your  Proteus  software  if  you  have  already  opened  it  or  start  it  if  its
not opne. 

In  the  components  search  box,  search  for  Touch  Sensor  and  place  it  in  your
workspace.

If  everything  goes  fine,  then  you  will  get  a  touch  sensor  as  shown  in  below
figure:

Now, next thing you need to do is to add the functionality in it.

So, double click this vibration sensor and in the Program file section browse for
the  TouchSensorTEP.HEX  file  which  we  have  placed  in  the  library  folder  of
Proteus.

Upload it in the Program file section and now you are ready to use this sensor.

Let’s test this sensor out.

So, design a simple circuit diagram as shown in below figure:

Because its a simulation and we can’t actually touch the sensor so that’s why I
have placed a TestPin.

When this TestPin is HIGH, it means that your sensor is sensing the touch and
when its LOW it means that there’s no touch.

So, now let’s run this simulation and see what happens:

 Custom Cables

So, that’s how this Capacitive Touch Sensor Library for Proteus works.

When  you  make  the  TestPin  Low  then  it  means  there’s  no  touch  detected  by
the sensor and it will give LOW at the output.

Similarly  when  TestPin  goes  HIHG  then  it  means  there’s  a  touch  and  the
sensor will give HIGH at the OUT Pin.

Here’s  a  video  in  which  I  have  explained  in  detail  How  to  use  this  Capacitive
Touch Sensor Library for Proteus.
