Overview
The MTCH9010 Evaluation Kit is a complete system designed to help users quickly familiarize themselves with the MTCH9010's capabilities. It includes two sensor boards: one capacitive and one conductive. The evaluation kit uses the MCP2221A USB to UART bridge for communication, allowing sensor data streaming and device configuration through the MTCH9010’s Enhanced Configuration Mode. The evaluation kit is designed to allow users to easily interface and test their own custom sensors with the MTCH9010, providing a versatile platform for rapid development and experimentation.
