I use the capacitive touch of LPC845. When the finger touches the connected wire, the touch event occurs. If the finger is close to the wire, or if the finger is blocked by an insulating object and touched again, it can not trigger the touch event. What's the matter?
Hello,
Please keep in mind that in this case the cover needs to be thin enough, and the metallic sensor needs to have a sufficient area for sensing.
Hope it helps!
Best regards,
Felipe

Hi,
The sensitivity will depend on your PCB sensor pad design. I recommend you to read the document below, there are some guidelines to increase sensitivity in chapter 2.3 and some tests were made with different kinds of interference affecting the sensor in chapter 5.
