Hello Cypress.

Below is description of MBR3 design guide.

Document explains that recommended guard sensor thickness is 2mm.

Which part of guard sensor does this description explain?

Does this “thickness” define actual trace thickness(“A” of below figure)?

Or does this “thickness” define width length of guard sensor(“B” of below figure)?

Hello,

The thickness here refers to the width length of the guard sensor.
