Texas Instruments BOOSTXL-CAPKEYPAD Touch Keypad BoosterPack

Texas Instruments BOOSTXL-CAPKEYPAD Touch Keypad BoosterPack is an easy-to-use evaluation module (EVM) for the MSP430FR2522 capacitive touch sensing microcontroller (MCU) with CapTIvate™ technology. The BOOSTXL-CAPKEYPAD can be used in three ways - with a LaunchPad™ development kit, the CapTIvate development kit (MSP-CAPT-FR2633), or with the CapTIvate programmer board (CAPTIVATE-PGMR).

The Texas Instruments BOOSTXL-CAPKEYPAD enables users to extend a LaunchPad™ development kit design by adding a 12-key capacitive touch numeric keypad with LED backlighting and proximity wake-up. The onboard keypad can be bypassed and connect up to three external capacitive sensors to the BOOSTXL-CAPKEYPAD to test the user's sensor design concepts. If the designer has a CapTIvate development kit (MSP-CAPT-FR2633), it can use the programmer board that is part of the kit to evaluate the BOOSTXL-CAPKEYPAD.
