TrueTouch now supported by Windows Phone 7 Series

Announced in February, Windows Phone 7 Series offers a fresh approach to phone software, distinguished by smart design and truly integrated user experiences. It takes a fundamentally different approach to phone design, with dynamically updated live tiles that show users real-time content directly. It also includes hubs that bring together related content from the web, applications and services into a single view to simplify common tasks such as reading, editing and sharing documents all in one place.

Cypress is proud to see the TrueTouch solution selected for native support within this exciting new platform, said Dhwani Vyas, vice president of the User Interface Business Unit at Cypress. Of the many touchscreen products available, none offers the advanced features and flexibility of TrueTouch. The interface within Windows Phone 7 Series enables manufacturers to take advantage of these attributes quickly and seamlessly. This software support, coupled with our broad family of devices, is going to significantly reduce time-to-market for the next generation of capacitive-touch-enabled Windows Phone 7 Series phones.

Cypress recently announced its next-generation high performance TMA300 multi-touch all-point family. This controller provides best-in-class scan times for true multi-finger touch and superior signal-to-noise ratio for the most demanding touchscreen applications. Cypress has also recently demonstrated advanced functions such as 1 mm stylus and large touchscreen support.
