Microchip Expands maXTouch® M1 Touchscreen Controller Series for Broader Display Size Coverage

CHANDLER, Ariz., Jan. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Microchip Technology (NASDAQ:MCHP) has again expanded its maXTouch® M1 family of touchscreen controllers to bring reliable and secure touch detection to an even greater range of automotive displays, now covering free-form widescreen format displays up to 42 inches down to small compact screens in the 2 to 5 inch range. The ATMXT3072M1-HC and ATMXT288M1 products are designed to work with a wide variety of display sizes, while supporting emerging technologies such as Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) and microLEDs.The M1 controllers utilize Microchip's proprietary Smart Mutual touch acquisition scheme and advanced algorithms to boost the touch Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) by up to 15 dB compared to previous generations. Smart Mutual technology is engineered to deliver reliable touch detection even on integrated touch sensors exposed to high capacitive loads and significant display noise coupling. This capability is particularly critical for large, thin displays such as on-cell OLEDs, where embedded touch electrodes are subjected to higher capacitive loads and increased noise coupling, raising the risk of false or missed touch detections with other capacitive solutions."Fueled by evolving user expectations and the rise of software-defined vehicles, automotive cockpit displays are rapidly changing, and ...Full story available on Benzinga.com
