USER MANUAL CAP1208 Microchip

8-Channel Capacitive Touch Sensor

General Description

The CAP1208 is a multiple channel capacitive touch sensor controller. It contains eight (8) individual capacitive touch sensor inputs with programmable sensitivity for use in touch sensor applications. Each sensor input is calibrated to compensate for system parasitic capacitance and automatically recalibrated to compensate for gradual environmental changes.

The CAP1208 includes Multiple Pattern Touch recognition that allows the user to select a specific set of buttons to be touched simultaneously. If this pattern is detected, a status bit is set and an interrupt is generated.

The CAP1208 has Active and Standby states, each with its own sensor input configuration controls. Power consumption in the Standby state is dependent on the number of sensor inputs enabled as well as averaging, sampling time, and cycle time. Deep Sleep is the lowest power state available, drawing 5 A (typical) of current. In this state, no sensor inputs are active, and communications will wake the device.

3.0 COMMUNICATIONS

3.1 Communications

The CAP1208 communicates using the SMBus or I ^2 C protocol.

3.2 System Management Bus

The CAP1208 communicates with a host controller, such as an MCHP SIO, through the SMBus. The SMBus is a two-wire serial communication protocol between a computer host and its peripheral devices. A detailed timing diagram is shown in Figure 3-1. Stretching of the SMCLK signal is supported; however, the CAP1208 will not stretch the clock signal.

FIGURE 3-1: SMBUS TIMING DIAGRAM

text_image SMCLK T_LOW T_HIGH T_FALL T_HD:STA T_SU:STA T_RISE T_HD:STA T_HD:DAT T_SU:DAT S-MAT T_BUX P S S - Start Condition S P - Stop Condition P

3.2.1 SMBUS START BIT

The SMBus Start bit is defined as a transition of the SMBus Data line from a logic '1' state to a logic '0' state while the SMBus Clock line is in a logic '1' state.

3.2.2 SMBUS ADDRESS AND RD / WR BIT

The SMBus Address Byte consists of the 7-bit client address followed by the RD / WR indicator bit. If this RD / WR bit is a logic '0', then the SMBus Host is writing data to the client device. If this RD / WR bit is a logic '1', then the SMBus Host is reading data from the client device.

The CAP1208-1 responds to SMBus address 0101_000(r/w). The CAP1208-2 responds to the SMBus address 0101_001(r/w).

3.2.3 SMBUS DATA BYTES

All SMBus Data bytes are sent most significant bit first and composed of 8-bits of information.

3.2.4 SMBUS ACK AND NACK BITS

The SMBus client will acknowledge all data bytes that it receives. This is done by the client device pulling the SMBus Data line low after the 8th bit of each byte that is transmitted. This applies to both the Write Byte and Block Write protocols.

The Host will NACK (not acknowledge) the last data byte to be received from the client by holding the SMBus data line high after the 8th data bit has been sent. For the Block Read protocol, the Host will ACK each data byte that it receives except the last data byte.

3.2.5 SMBUS STOP BIT

The SMBus Stop bit is defined as a transition of the SMBus Data line from a logic '0' state to a logic '1' state while the SMBus clock line is in a logic '1' state. When the CAP1208 detects an SMBus Stop bit and it has been communicating with the SMBus protocol, it will reset its client interface and prepare to receive further communications.

3.2.6 SMBUS TIMEOUT

The CAP1208 includes an SMBus timeout feature. Following a 30ms period of inactivity on the SMBus where the SMCLK pin is held low, the device will timeout and reset the SMBus interface.

The timeout function defaults to disabled. It can be enabled by setting the TIMEOUT bit in the Configuration register (see Section 5.6, "Configuration Registers").

3.2.7 SMBUS AND I ^2 C COMPATIBILITY

The major differences between SMBus and I ^2 C devices are highlighted here. For more information, refer to the SMBus 2.0 specification.

  1. CAP1208supports I ^2 C fast mode at 400kHz. This covers the SMBus max time of 100kHz.
  2. Minimum frequency for SMBus communications is 10kHz.
  3. The SMBus client protocol will reset if the clock is held low longer than 30ms (timeout condition). This can be enabled in the CAP1208 by setting the TIMEOUT bit in the Configuration register. I^2C does not have a timeout.
  4. The SMBus client protocol will reset if both the clock and the data line are high for longer than 200us (idle condition). This can be enabled in the CAP1208by setting the TIMEOUT bit in the Configuration register. ^2 C does not have an idle condition.
  5. I ^2 C devices do not support the Alert Response Address functionality (which is optional for SMBus).
  6. I ^2 C devices support block read and write differently. I ^2 C protocol allows for unlimited number of bytes to be sent in either direction. The SMBus protocol requires that an additional data byte indicating number of bytes to read / write is transmitted. The CAP1208 supports I ^2 C formatting only.

3.3 SMBus Protocols

The CAP1208 is SMBus 2.0 compatible and supports Write Byte, Read Byte, Send Byte, and Receive Byte as valid protocols as shown below.

All of the below protocols use the convention in Table 3-1.

4.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The CAP1208 is a multiple channel capacitive touch sensor. It contains eight (8) individual capacitive touch sensor inputs with programmable sensitivity for use in touch sensor applications. Each sensor input is calibrated to compensate for system parasitic capacitance and automatically recalibrated to compensate for gradual environmental changes.

The CAP1208 includes Multiple Pattern Touch recognition that allows the user to select a specific set of buttons to be touched simultaneously. If this pattern is detected, a status bit is set and an interrupt is generated.

The CAP1208 has Active and Standby states, each with its own sensor input configuration controls. Power consumption in the Standby state is dependent on the number of sensor inputs enabled as well as averaging, sampling time, and cycle time. Deep Sleep is the lowest power state available, drawing 5 A (typical) of current. In this state, no sensor inputs are active, and communications will wake the device.

The device communicates with a host controller using SMBus / I ^2 C. The host controller may poll the device for updated information at any time or it may configure the device to flag an interrupt whenever a touch is detected on any sensor pad.

A typical system diagram is shown in FIGURE 4-1:.

4.1 Power States

The CAP1208 has 3 power states depending on the status of the STBY and DSLEEP bits. When the device transitions between power states, previously detected touches (for channels that are being de-activated) are cleared and the sensor input status bits are reset.

  1. Active - The normal mode of operation. The device is monitoring capacitive sensor inputs enabled in the Active state.

  2. Standby - When the STBY bit is set, the device is monitoring the capacitive sensor inputs enabled in the Standby state. Interrupts can still be generated based on the enabled channels. The device will still respond to communications normally and can be returned to the Active state of operation by clearing the STBY bit. Power consumption in this state is dependent on the number of sensor inputs enabled as well as averaging, sampling time, and cycle time.

  3. Deep Sleep - When the DSLEEP bit is set, the device is in its lowest power state. It is not monitoring any capacitive sensor inputs. While in Deep Sleep, the CAP1208 can be awakened by SMBus communications targeting the device. This will not cause the DSLEEP to be cleared so the device will return to Deep Sleep once all communications have stopped. The device can be returned to the Active state of operation by clearing the DSLEEP bit.

4.2 Reset

The Power-On Reset (POR) circuit holds the device in reset until V_DD has reached an acceptable level, Power-on Reset Release Voltage ( V_PORR ), for minimum operation. The power-up timer (PWRT) is used to extend the start-up period until all device operation conditions have been met. The power-up timer starts after V_DD reaches V_PORR . POR and PORR with slow rising V_DD is shown in Figure 4-2.

The Brown-Out Reset (BOR) circuit holds the device in reset when V_DD falls to a minimum level, V_BOR for longer than the BOR reset delay ( t_BORDC ). After a BOR, when V_DD rises above V_PORR , the power-up timer is started again and must finish before reset is released, as shown in Figure 4-2.

4.3 Capacitive Touch Sensing

The CAP1208 contains eight (8) independent capacitive touch sensor inputs. Each sensor input has dynamic range to detect a change of capacitance due to a touch. Additionally, each sensor input can be configured to be automatically and routinely recalibrated.

4.3.1 CAPACITIVE TOUCH SENSING SETTINGS

Controls for managing capacitive touch sensor inputs are determined by the power state.

4.3.1.1 Active State Sensing Settings

The Active state is used for normal operation. Sensor inputs being monitored are determined by the Sensor Input Enable Register(see Section 5.7, "Sensor Input Enable Register"). Sensitivity is controlled by the Sensitivity Control Register (see Section 5.5, "Sensitivity Control Register"). Averaging, sample time, and cycle time are controlled by the Averaging and Sampling Configuration Register (see Section 5.10, "Averaging and Sampling Configuration Register"). Each channel can have a separate touch detection threshold, as defined in the Sensor Input Threshold registers (see Section 5.18, "Sensor Input Threshold Registers").

4.3.1.2 Standby State Sensing Settings

The Standby state is used for standby operation. In general, fewer sensor inputs are enabled, and they are programmed to have more sensitivity. Sensor inputs being monitored are determined by the Standby Channel Register (see Section 5.20, "Standby Channel Register"). Sensitivity is controlled by the Standby Sensitivity Register (see Section 5.22,

"Standby Sensitivity Register"). Averaging, sample time, and cycle time are controlled by the Averaging and Sampling Configuration Register (see Section 5.21, "Standby Configuration Register"). There is one touch detection threshold, which applies to all sensors enabled in Standby, as defined in the Standby Threshold Register (see Section 5.23, "Standby Threshold Register").

4.3.2 SENSING CYCLE

Except when in Deep Sleep, the device automatically initiates a sensing cycle and repeats the cycle every time it finishes. The cycle polls through each enabled sensor input starting with CS1 and extending through CS8. As each capacitive touch sensor input is polled, its measurement is compared against a baseline "not touched" measurement. If the delta measurement is large enough to exceed the applicable threshold, a touch is detected and an interrupt can be generated (see Section 4.8.2, "Capacitive Sensor Input Interrupt Behavior").

The sensing cycle time is programmable (see Section 5.10, "Averaging and Sampling Configuration Register" and Section 5.21, "Standby Configuration Register"). If all enabled inputs can be sampled in less than the cycle time, the device is placed into a lower power state for the remainder of the sensing cycle. If the number of active sensor inputs cannot be sampled within the specified cycle time, the cycle time is extended and the device is not placed in a lower power state.

4.4 Sensor Input Calibration

Calibration sets the Base Count Registers(Section 5.24, "Sensor Input Base Count Registers") which contain the "not touched" values used for touch detection comparisons. Calibration automatically occurs after a power-on reset (POR), when sample time is changed, and whenever a sensor input is newly enabled (for example, when transitioning from a power state in which it was disabled to a power state in which it is enabled). During calibration, the analog sensing circuits are tuned to the capacitance of the untouched pad. Then, samples are taken from each sensor input so that a base count can be established. After calibration, the untouched delta counts are zero.

APPLICATION NOTE: During the calibration routine, the sensor inputs will not detect a press for up to 200ms and the Sensor Base Count Register values will be invalid. In addition, any press on the corresponding sensor pads will invalidate the calibration.

The host controller can force a calibration for selected sensor inputs at any time using the Calibration Activate and Status Register Section 5.10.1, "Calibration Activate and Status Register". When a bit is set, the corresponding capacitive touch sensor input will be calibrated (both analog and digital). The bit is automatically cleared once the calibration routine has successfully finished.

If analog calibration fails for a sensor input, the corresponding bit is not cleared in the Calibration Activate and Status Register, and the ACAL_FAIL bit is set in the General Status Register(Section 5.2, "Status Registers"). An interrupt can be generated. Analog calibration will fail if a noise bit is set or if the calibration value is at the maximum or minimum value. If digital calibration fails to generate base counts for a sensor input in the operating range, which is ± 12.5% from the ideal base count (see TABLE 4-1:), indicating the base capacitance is out of range, the corresponding BC_OUTx bit is set in the Base Count Out of Limit Register(Section 5.16, "Base Count Out of Limit Register"), and the BC_OUT bit is set in the General Status Register (Section 5.2, "Status Registers"). An interrupt can be generated. By default, when a base count is out of limit, analog calibration is repeated for the sensor input; alternatively, the sensor input can be sampled using the out of limit base count(Section 5.6, "Configuration Registers").

TABLE 4-1: IDEAL BASE COUNTS

Ideal Base Count Sample Time
3,200 320us
6,400 640us
12,800 1.28ms
25,600 2.56ms

During normal operation there are various options for recalibrating the capacitive touch sensor inputs. Recalibration is a digital adjustment of the base counts so that the untouched delta count is zero. After a recalibration, if a sensor input's base count has shifted ±12.5% from the ideal base count, a full calibration will be performed on the sensor input.

4.4.1 AUTOMATIC RECALIBRATION

Each sensor input is regularly recalibrated at a programmable rate(see CAL_CFG[2:0] in Section 5.17, "Recalibration Configuration Register"). By default, the recalibration routine stores the average 64 previous measurements and periodically updates the base "not touched" setting for the capacitive touch sensor input.

APPLICATION NOTE: Automatic recalibration only works when the delta count is below the active sensor input threshold. It is disabled when a touch is detected.

4.4.2 NEGATIVE DELTA COUNT RECALIBRATION

It is possible that the device loses sensitivity to a touch. This may happen as a result of a noisy environment, recalibration when the pad is touched but delta counts do not exceed the threshold, or other environmental changes. When this occurs, the base untouched sensor input may generate negative delta count values. The NEG_DELTA_CNT[1:0] bits(see Section 5.17, "Recalibration Configuration Register") can be set to force a recalibration after a specified number of consecutive negative delta readings. After a delayed recalibration (see Section 4.4.3, "Delayed Recalibration") the negative delta count recalibration can correct after the touch is released.

APPLICATION NOTE: During this recalibration, the device will not respond to touches.

4.4.3 DELAYED RECALIBRATION

It is possible that a "stuck button" occurs when something is placed on a button which causes a touch to be detected for a long period. By setting the MAX_DUR_EN bit(see Section 5.6, "Configuration Registers"), a recalibration can be forced when a touch is held on a button for longer than the duration specified in the MAX_DUR[3:0] bits (see Section 5.8, "Sensor Input Configuration Register").

Note 4-1 Delayed recalibration only works when the delta count is above the active sensor input threshold. If enabled, it is invoked when a sensor pad touch is held longer than the MAX_DUR bit settings.

Note 4-2 For the power button, which requires that the button be held longer than a regular button, the time specified by the MAX_DUR[3:0] bits is added to the time required to trigger the qualifying event. This will prevent the power button from being recalibrated during the time it is supposed to be held.

4.5 Power Button

The CAP1208 has a "power button" feature. In general, buttons are set for quick response to a touch, especially when buttons are used for number keypads. However, there are cases where a quick response is not desired, such as when accidentally brushing the power button causes a device to turn off or on unexpectedly.

The power button feature allows a sensor input to be designated as the "power button" (see Section 5.25, "Power Button Register"). The power button is configured so that a touch must be held on the button for a designated period of time before an interrupt is generated; different times can be selected for the Standby and the Active states (see Section 5.26, "Power Button Configuration Register"). The feature can also be enabled / disabled for both states separately.

APPLICATION NOTE: For the power button feature to work in the Standby and/or Active states, the sensor input must be enabled in the applicable state.

After the designated power button has been held for the designated time, an interrupt is generated and the PWR bit is set in the General Status Register (see Section 5.2, "Status Registers").

4.6 Multiple Touch Pattern Detection

The multiple touch pattern (MTP) detection circuitry can be used to detect lid closure or other similar events. An event can be flagged based on either a minimum number of sensor inputs or on specific sensor inputs simultaneously exceeding an MTP threshold or having their Noise Flag Status Register bits set. An interrupt can also be generated. During an MTP event, all touches are blocked (see Section 5.14, "Multiple Touch Pattern Configuration Register").

4.7 Noise Controls

4.7.1 LOW FREQUENCY NOISE DETECTION

Each sensor input has a low frequency noise detector that will sense if low frequency noise is injected onto the input with sufficient power to corrupt the readings. By default, if this occurs, the device will reject the corrupted samplesee DIS_ANA_NOISE bit in Section 5.6.1, "Configuration - 20h") and the corresponding bit is set to a logic '1' in the Noise Flag Status register (see SHOW_RF_NOISE bit in Section 5.6.2, "Configuration 2 - 44h").

4.7.2 RF NOISE DETECTION

Each sensor input contains an integrated RF noise detector. This block will detect injected RF noise on the CS pin. The detector threshold is dependent upon the noise frequency. By default, if RF noise is detected on a CS line, that sample is removed and not compared against the threshold (see DIS_RF_NOISE bit in Section 5.6.2, "Configuration 2 - 44h").

4.7.3 NOISE STATUS AND CONFIGURATION

The Noise Flag Status (see Section 5.3, "Noise Flag Status Registers") bits can be used to indicate RF and/or other noise. If the SHOW_RF_NOISE bit in the Configuration Register (see Section 5.6, "Configuration Registers") is set to 0, the Noise Flag Status bit for the capacitive sensor input is set if any analog noise is detected. If the SHOW_RF_NOISE bit is set to 1, the Noise Flag Status bits will only be set if RF noise is detected.

The CAP1208 offers optional noise filtering controls for both analog and digital noise.

For analog noise, there are options for whether the data should be considered invalid. By default, the DIS_ANA_NOISE bit (see Section 5.6.1, "Configuration - 20h") will block a touch on a sensor input if low frequency analog noise is detected; the sample is discarded. By default, the DIS_RF_NOISE bit (see Section 5.6.2, "Configuration 2 - 44h") will block a touch on a sensor input if RF noise is detected; the sample is discarded.

For digital noise, sensor input noise thresholds can be set (see Section 5.19, "Sensor Input Noise Threshold Register"). If a capacitive touch sensor input exceeds the Sensor Noise Threshold but does not exceed the touch threshold (Sensor Threshold (see Section 5.18, "Sensor Input Threshold Registers") in the Active state or Sensor Standby Threshold in the Standby state (Section 5.23, "Standby Threshold Register")), it is determined to be caused by a noise spike. The DIS_DIG_NOISE bit (see Section 5.6.1, "Configuration - 20h") can be set to discard samples that indicate a noise spike so they are not used in the automatic recalibration routine (see Section 4.4.1, "Automatic Recalibration").

4.8 Interrupts

Interrupts are indicated by the setting of the INT bit in the Main Control Register(see Section 5.1, "Main Control Register") and by assertion of the ALERT# pin. The ALERT# pin is cleared when the INT bit is cleared by the user. When the INT bit is cleared by the user, status bits may be cleared (see Section 5.2, "Status Registers").

4.8.1 ALERT# PIN

The ALERT# pin is an active low output that is driven when an interrupt event is detected.

4.8.2 CAPACITIVE SENSOR INPUT INTERRUPT BEHAVIOR

Each sensor input can be programmed to enable / disable interrupts(see Section 5.11, "Interrupt Enable Register").

When enabled for a sensor input and the sensor input is not the designated power button, interrupts are generated in one of two ways:

  1. An interrupt is generated when a touch is detected and, as a user selectable option, when a release is detected (by default - see INT_REL_n in Section 5.6.2, "Configuration 2 - 44h"). See FIGURE 4-4:.
  2. If the repeat rate is enabled then, so long as the touch is held, another interrupt will be generated based on the programmed repeat rate (see FIGURE 4-3:).

When the repeat rate is enabled for a sensor input (see Section 5.12, "Repeat Rate Enable Register"), the device uses an additional control called MPRESS that determines whether a touch is flagged as a simple "touch" or a "press and hold" (see Section 5.9, "Sensor Input Configuration 2 Register"). The MPRESS[3:0] bits set a minimum press timer. When the button is touched, the timer begins. If the sensor pad is released before the minimum press timer expires, it is flagged as a touch and an interrupt (if enabled) is generated upon release. If the sensor input detects a touch for longer than this timer value, it is flagged as a "press and hold" event. So long as the touch is held, interrupts will be generated at the programmed repeat rate (see Section 5.8, "Sensor Input Configuration Register") and upon release (if enabled).

If a sensor input is the designated power button, an interrupt is not generated as soon as a touch is detected and repeat rate is not applicable. See Section 4.8.3, "Interrupts for the Power Button".

APPLICATION NOTE: FIGURE 4-3: and FIGURE 4-4: show default operation which is to generate an interrupt upon sensor pad release.

APPLICATION NOTE: The host may need to poll the device twice to determine that a release has been detected.

4.8.3 INTERRUPTS FOR THE POWER BUTTON

Interrupts are automatically enabled for the power button when the feature is enabled (see Section 4.5, "Power Button"). A touch must be held on the power button for the designated period of time before an interrupt is generated.

4.8.4 INTERRUPTS FOR MULTIPLE TOUCH PATTERN DETECTION

An interrupt can be generated when the MTP pattern is matched (see Section 5.14, "Multiple Touch Pattern Configuration Register").

4.8.5 INTERRUPTS FOR SENSOR INPUT CALIBRATION FAILURES

An interrupt can be generated when the ACAL_FAIL bit is set, indicating the failure to complete analog calibration of one or more sensor inputs(see Section 5.2, "Status Registers"). This interrupt can be enabled by setting the ACAL_FAIL_INT bit (see Section 5.6, "Configuration Registers").

An interrupt can be generated when the BC_OUT bit is set, indicating the base count is out of limit for one or more sensor inputs(see Section 5.2, "Status Registers"). This interrupt can be enabled by setting the BC_OUT_INT bit (see Section 5.6, "Configuration Registers").

4.8.6 INTERRUPTS FOR RESET

When the device comes out of reset, an interrupt is generated, and the RESET bit is set.

During power-on reset (POR), the default values are stored in the registers. A POR is initiated when power is first applied to the part and the voltage on the VDD supply surpasses the POR level as specified in the electrical characteristics.

When a bit is "set", this means it's at a logic '1'. When a bit is "cleared", this means it's at a logic '0'.

5.1 Main Control Register

The Main Control register controls the primary power state of the device (see Section 4.1, "Power States").

Bit 5 - STBY - Enables Standby.

- '0' (default) - The device is not in the Standby state.

- '1' - The device is in the Standby state. Capacitive touch sensor input scanning is limited to the sensor inputs set in the Standby Channel register (see Section 5.20, "Standby Channel Register"). The status registers will not be cleared until read. Sensor inputs that are no longer sampled will flag a release and then remain in a non-touched state.

Bit 4 - DSLEEP - Enables Deep Sleep.

  • '0' (default) - The device is not in the Deep Sleep state.
  • '1' - The device is in the Deep Sleep state. All sensor input scanning is disabled. The status registers are automatically cleared and the INT bit is cleared. When this bit is set, the STBY bit has no effect.

Bit 0 - INT - Indicates that there is an interrupt (see Section 4.8, "Interrupts"). When this bit is set, it asserts the ALERT# pin. If a channel detects a touch but interrupts are not enabled for that channel (see Section 5.11, "Interrupt Enable Register"), no action is taken. This bit is cleared by writing a logic '0' to it. When this bit is cleared, the ALERT# pin will be deasserted, and all status registers will be cleared if the condition has been removed.

  • '0' - No interrupt pending.
  • '1' - An interrupt condition occurred, and the ALERT# pin has been asserted.

5.2.1 GENERAL STATUS - 02H

Bit 6 - BC_OUT - Indicates that the base count is out of limit for one or more enabled sensor inputs (see Section 4.4, "Sensor Input Calibration"). This bit will not be cleared until all enabled sensor inputs have base counts within the limit.

  • '0' - All enabled sensor inputs have base counts in the operating range.
  • '1' - One or more enabled sensor inputs has the base count out of limit. A status bit is set in the Base Count Out of Limit Register (see Section 5.16, "Base Count Out of Limit Register").

Bit 5 - ACAL_FAIL - Indicates analog calibration failure for one or more enabled sensor inputs (see Section 4.4, "Sensor Input Calibration"). This bit will not be cleared until all enabled sensor inputs have successfully completed analog calibration.

  • '0' - All enabled sensor inputs were successfully calibrated.
  • '1' - One or more enabled sensor inputs failed analog calibration. A status bit is set in the Calibration Active Register (see Section 5.10.1, "Calibration Activate and Status Register").

Bit 4 - PWR - Indicates that the designated power button has been held for the designated time (see Section 4.5, "Power Button"). This bit will cause the INT bit to be set. This bit is cleared when the INT bit is cleared if there is no longer a touch on the power button.

  • '0' - The power button has not been held for the required time or is not enabled.
  • '1' - The power button has been held for the required time.

Bit 3 - RESET - Indicates that the device has come out of reset. This bit is set when the device exits a POR state. This bit will cause the INT bit to be set and is cleared when the INT bit is cleared.

Bit 2 - MULT - Indicates that the device is blocking detected touches due to the Multiple Touch detection circuitry (see Section 5.13, "Multiple Touch Configuration Register"). This bit will not cause the INT bit to be set and hence will not cause an interrupt.

Bit 1 - MTP - Indicates that the device has detected a number of sensor inputs that exceed the MTP threshold either via the pattern recognition or via the number of sensor inputs (see Section 5.14, "Multiple Touch Pattern Configuration Register"). This bit will cause the INT bit to be set if the MTP_ALERT bit is also set. This bit is cleared when the INT bit is cleared if the condition that caused it to be set has been removed.
Bit 0 - TOUCH - Indicates that a touch was detected. This bit is set if any bit in the Sensor Input Status register is set.

5.2.2 SENSOR INPUT STATUS - 03H

The Sensor Input Status Register stores status bits that indicate a touch has been detected. A value of '0' in any bit indicates that no touch has been detected. A value of '1' in any bit indicates that a touch has been detected.

All bits are cleared when the INT bit is cleared and if a touch on the respective capacitive touch sensor input is no longer present. If a touch is still detected, the bits will not be cleared (but this will not cause the interrupt to be asserted).

Bit 7 - CS8 - Indicates that a touch was detected on Sensor Input 8.

Bit 6 - CS7 - Indicates that a touch was detected on Sensor Input 7.

Bit 5 - CS6 - Indicates that a touch was detected on Sensor Input 6.

0AhRNoise Flag StatusCS8_NOISECS7_NOISECS6_NOISECS5_NOISECS4_NOISECS3_NOISECS2_NOISECS1_NOISE00h

The Noise Flag Status registers store status bits that can be used to indicate that the analog block detected noise above the operating region of the analog detector or the RF noise detector (see Section 4.7.3, "Noise Status and Configuration"). These bits indicate that the most recently received data from the sensor input is invalid and should not be used for touch detection. So long as the bit is set for a particular channel, the delta count value is reset to 00h and thus no touch is detected.

These bits are not sticky and will be cleared automatically if the analog block does not report a noise error.

APPLICATION NOTE: If the MTP detection circuitry is enabled, these bits count as sensor inputs above the MTP threshold (see Section 4.6, "Multiple Touch Pattern Detection") even if the corresponding delta count is not. If the corresponding delta count also exceeds the MTP threshold, it is not counted twice.

APPLICATION NOTE: Regardless of the state of the Noise Status bits, if low frequency noise is detected on a sensor input, that sample will be discarded unless the DIS_ANA_NOISE bit is set. As well, if RF noise is detected on a sensor input, that sample will be discarded unless the DIS_RF_NOISE bit is set.

17h RSensor Input 8 Delta CountSign 6432 16 8 42 1 00h

The Sensor Input Delta Count registers store the delta count that is compared against the threshold used to determine if a touch has been detected. The count value represents a change in input due to the capacitance associated with a touch on one of the sensor inputs and is referenced to a calibrated base "not touched" count value. The delta is an instantaneous change and is updated once per sensor input per sensing cycle (see Section 4.3.2, "Sensing Cycle").

The value presented is a standard 2's complement number. In addition, the value is capped at a value of 7Fh. A reading of 7Fh indicates that the sensitivity settings are too high and should be adjusted accordingly (see Section 5.5).

The value is also capped at a negative value of 80h for negative delta counts which may result upon a release.

5.5 Sensitivity Control Register

TABLE 5-6: SENSITIVITY CONTROL REGISTER

AddrR/WRegisterB7B6B5B4B3B2B1B0Default
1FhR/WSensitivity Control-DELTA_SENSE[2:0]BASE_SHIFT[3:0]2Fh

The Sensitivity Control register controls the sensitivity of a touch detection.

Bits 6-4 DELTA_SENSE[2:0] - Controls the sensitivity of a touch detection for sensor inputs enabled in the Active state. The sensitivity settings act to scale the relative delta count value higher or lower based on the system parameters. A setting of 000b is the most sensitive while a setting of 111b is the least sensitive. At the more sensitive settings, touches are detected for a smaller delta capacitance corresponding to a "lighter" touch. These settings are more sensitive to noise, however, and a noisy environment may flag more false touches with higher sensitivity levels.

APPLICATION NOTE: A value of 128x is the most sensitive setting available. At the most sensitive settings, the MSB of the Delta Count register represents 64 out of \~25,000 which corresponds to a touch of approximately 0.25% of the base capacitance (or a C of 25fF from a 10pF base capacitance). Conversely, a value of 1x is the least sensitive setting available. At these settings, the MSB of the Delta Count register corresponds to a delta count of 8192 counts out of \~25,000 which corresponds to a touch of approximately 33% of the base capacitance (or a C of 3.33pF from a 10pF base capacitance).

5.6 Configuration Registers

The Configuration registers control general global functionality that affects the entire device.

5.6.1 CONFIGURATION - 20H

Bit 7 - TIMEOUT - Enables the timeout and idle functionality of the SMBus protocol.

  • '0' (default) - The SMBus timeout and idle functionality are disabled. The SMBus interface will not time out if the clock line is held low. Likewise, it will not reset if both the data and clock lines are held high for longer than 200us.
  • '1' - The SMBus timeout and idle functionality are enabled. The SMBus interface will reset if the clock line is held low for longer than 30ms. Likewise, it will reset if both the data and clock lines are held high for longer than 200us.

Bit 5 - DIS_DIG_NOISE - Determines whether the digital noise threshold (see Section 5.19, "Sensor Input Noise Threshold Register") is used by the device. Setting this bit disables the feature.

  • '0' - The digital noise threshold is used. If a delta count value exceeds the noise threshold but does not exceed the touch threshold, the sample is discarded and not used for the automatic recalibration routine.
  • '1' (default) - The noise threshold is disabled. Any delta count that is less than the touch threshold is used for the automatic recalibration routine.

Bit 4 - DIS_ANA_NOISE - Determines whether the analog noise filter is enabled. Setting this bit disables the feature.

- '0' (default) - If low frequency noise is detected by the analog block, the delta count on the corresponding channel is set to 0. Note that this does not require that Noise Status bits be set.

- '1' - A touch is not blocked even if low frequency noise is detected.

Bit 3 - MAX_DUR_EN - Determines whether the maximum duration recalibration is enabled.

- '0' (default) - The maximum duration recalibration functionality is disabled. A touch may be held indefinitely and no recalibration will be performed on any sensor input.

- '1' - The maximum duration recalibration functionality is enabled. If a touch is held for longer than the MAX_DUR bit settings (see Section 5.8), the recalibration routine will be restarted (see Section 4.4.3, "Delayed Recalibration").

5.6.2 CONFIGURATION 2 - 44H

Bit 6 - BC_OUT_RECAL - Controls whether to retry analog calibration when the base count is out of limit for one or more sensor inputs.

  • '0' - When the BC_OUTx bit is set for a sensor input, the out of limit base count will be used for the sensor input.
  • '1' (default) - When the BC_OUTx bit is set for a sensor input (see Section 5.16, "Base Count Out of Limit Register"), analog calibration will be repeated on the sensor input.

Bit 5 - BLK_PWR_CTRL - Determines whether the device will reduce power consumption while waiting between conversion time completion and the end of the sensing cycle.

- '0' (default) - The device will reduce power consumption during the time between the end of the last conversion and the end of the sensing cycle.

- '1' - The device will not reduce power consumption during the time between the end of the last conversion and the end of the sensing cycle.

Bit 4 - BC_OUT_INT - Controls the interrupt behavior when the base count is out of limit for one or more sensor inputs.

- '0' (default) - An interrupt is not generated when the BC_OUT bit is set (see Section 5.2, "Status Registers").

- '1' - An interrupt is generated when the BC_OUT bit is set.

Bit 3 - SHOW_RF_NOISE - Determines whether the Noise Status bits will show RF Noise as the only input source.

- '0' (default) - The Noise Status registers will show both RF noise and low frequency noise if either is detected on a capacitive touch sensor input.

- '1' - The Noise Status registers will only show RF noise if it is detected on a capacitive touch sensor input. Low frequency noise will still be detected and touches will be blocked normally; however, the status bits will not be updated.

Bit 2 - DIS_RF_NOISE - Determines whether the RF noise filter is enabled. Setting this bit disables the feature.

- '0' (default) - If RF noise is detected by the analog block, the delta count on the corresponding channel is set to 0. Note that this does not require that Noise Status bits be set.

- '1' - A touch is not blocked even if RF noise is detected.

Bit 1 - ACAL_FAIL_INT - Controls the interrupt behavior when analog calibration fails for one or more sensor inputs (see Section 4.4, "Sensor Input Calibration").

- '0' (default) - An interrupt is not generated when the ACAL_FAIL bit is set (see Section 5.2, "Status Registers").

- '1' - An interrupt is generated when the ACAL_FAIL bit is set

Bit 0 - INT_REL_n - Controls the interrupt behavior when a release is detected on a button (see Section 4.8.2, "Capacitive Sensor Input Interrupt Behavior").

- '0' (default) - An interrupt is generated when a press is detected and again when a release is detected and at the repeat rate (if enabled - see Section 5.12).

- '1' - An interrupt is generated when a press is detected and at the repeat rate but not when a release is detected.

Bits 3 - 0 - M_PRESS[3:0] - (default 0111b) - Determines the minimum amount of time that sensor inputs configured to use auto repeat must detect a sensor pad touch to detect a "press and hold" event (see Section 4.8.2, "Capacitive Sensor Input Interrupt Behavior"). If the sensor input detects a touch for longer than the M_PRESS[3:0] settings, a "press and hold" event is detected. If a sensor input detects a touch for less than or equal to the M_PRESS[3:0] settings, a touch event is detected.

24hR/WAveraging and Sampling Config-AVG[2:0]SAMP_TIME[1:0]CYCLE_TIME [1:0]39h

The Averaging and Sampling Configuration register controls the number of samples taken and the target sensing cycle time for sensor inputs enabled in the Active state.

Bits 6 - 4 - AVG[2:0] - Determines the number of samples that are taken for all channels enabled in the Active state during the sensing cycle as shown in Table 5-17. All samples are taken consecutively on the same channel before the next channel is sampled and the result is averaged over the number of samples measured before updating the measured results.

For example, if CS1, CS2, and CS3 are sampled during the sensing cycle, and the AVG[2:0] bits are set to take 4 samples per channel, then the full sensing cycle will be: CS1, CS1, CS1, CS1, CS2, CS2, CS2, CS2, CS3, CS3, CS3, CS3.

Bits 3 - 2 - SAMP_TIME[1:0] - Determines the time to take a single sample as shown in Table 5-18. Sample time affects the magnitude of the base counts, as shown in Table 4-1, "Ideal Base Counts".

Bits 1 - 0 - CYCLE_TIME[1:0] - Determines the desired sensing cycle time for channels enabled in the Active state, as shown in Table 5-19. All enabled channels are sampled at the beginning of the sensing cycle. If additional time is remaining, the device is placed into a lower power state for the remainder of the sensing cycle.

APPLICATION NOTE: The programmed sensing cycle time (CYCLE_TIME[1:0]) is only maintained if the actual time to take the samples is less than the programmed cycle time. The AVG[2:0] bits will take priority, so the sensing cycle time will be extended as necessary to accommodate the number of samples to be measured.

5.10.1 CALIBRATION ACTIVATE AND STATUS REGISTER

TABLE 5-20: CALIBRATION ACTIVATE AND STATUS REGISTER

Addr R/W Register B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 Default
26hR/WCalibration Activate and StatusCS8_CALCS7_CALCS6_CALCS5_CALCS4_CALCS3_CALCS2_CALCS1_CAL00h

The Calibration Activate and Status Register serves a dual function:

  1. It forces the selected sensor inputs to be calibrated, affecting both the analog and digital blocks (see Section 4.4, "Sensor Input Calibration"). When one or more bits are set, the device performs the calibration routine on the corresponding sensor inputs. When the analog calibration routine is finished, the CALX[9:0] bits are updated (see Section 5.27, "Sensor Input Calibration Registers"). If the analog calibration routine completed successfully for a sensor input, the corresponding bit is automatically cleared.

APPLICATION NOTE: In the case above, bits can be set by host or are automatically set by the device whenever a sensor input is newly enabled (such as coming out of Deep Sleep, after power-on reset, when a bit is set in the Sensor Enable Channel Enable register (21h) and the device is in the Active state, or when a bit is set in the Standby Channel Enable Register (40h) and the device is in the Standby state).

  1. It serves as an indicator of an analog calibration failure. If any of the bits could not be cleared, the ACAL_FAIL bit is set (see Section 5.2, "Status Registers"). A bit will fail to clear if a noise bit is set or if the calibration value is at the maximum or minimum value.

APPLICATION NOTE: In the case above, do not check the Calibration Activate and Status bits for failures unless the ACAL_FAIL bit is set. In addition, if a sensor input is newly enabled, do not check the Calibration Activate and Status bits until time has elapsed to complete calibration on the sensor input. Otherwise, the ACAL_FAIL bit may be set for one sensor input, but the newly enabled sensor input may still be set to '1' in the Calibration Activate and Status, not because it failed, but because it has not been calibrated yet.

For all bits in this register:

- '0' - No action needed.

- '1' - Writing a '1', forces a calibration on the corresponding sensor input. If the ACAL_FAIL flag is set and this bit is set (see application note above), the sensor input could not complete analog calibration.

Bit 7 - CS8_CAL - Bit for CS8 input.

Bit 6 - CS7_CAL - Bit for CS7 input.

Bit 5 - CS6_CAL - Bit for CS6 input.

Bit 4 - CS5_CAL - Bit for CS5 input.

Bit 3 - CS4_CAL - Bit for CS4 input.

Bit 2 - CS3_CAL - Bit for CS3 input.

Bit 1 - CS2_CAL - Bit for CS2 input.

Bit 0 - CS1_CAL - Bit for CS1 input.

APPLICATION NOTE: Writing a '0' to clear a '1' may cause a planned calibration to be skipped, if the calibration routine had not reached the sensor input yet.

  • '1' (default) - The ALERT# pin will be asserted if a touch is detected on the specified sensor input.
    Bit 7 - CS8_INT_EN - Enables the ALERT# pin to be asserted if a touch is detected on CS8 (associated with the CS8 status bit).
    Bit 6 - CS7_INT_EN - Enables the ALERT# pin to be asserted if a touch is detected on CS7 (associated with the CS7 status bit).

The Repeat Rate Enable register enables the repeat rate of the sensor inputs as described in Section 4.8.2, "Capacitive Sensor Input Interrupt Behavior".

For all bits in this register:

  • '0' - The repeat rate for the specified sensor input is disabled. It will only generate an interrupt when a touch is detected and when a release is detected (if enabled) no matter how long the touch is held.
  • '1' (default) - The repeat rate for the specified sensor input is enabled. In the case of a "touch" event, it will generate an interrupt when a touch is detected and a release is detected (as determined by the INT_REL_n bit - see Section 5.6, "Configuration Registers"). In the case of a "press and hold" event, it will generate an interrupt when a touch is detected and at the repeat rate so long as the touch is held.

Bit 7 - CS8_RPT_EN - Enables the repeat rate for capacitive touch sensor input 8.

Bit 6 - CS7_RPT_EN - Enables the repeat rate for capacitive touch sensor input 7.

Bit 7 - MULT_BLK_EN - Enables the multiple button blocking circuitry.

- '0' - The multiple touch circuitry is disabled. The device will not block multiple touches.

- '1' (default) - The multiple touch circuitry is enabled. The device will flag the number of touches equal to programmed multiple touch threshold and block all others. It will remember which sensor inputs are valid and block all others until that sensor pad has been released. Once a sensor pad has been released, the N detected touches (determined via the sensing cycle order of CS1 - CS8) will be flagged and all others blocked.

Bits 3 - 2 - B_MULT_T[1:0] - Determines the number of simultaneous touches on all sensor pads before a Multiple Touch Event is detected and sensor inputs are blocked. The bit decode is given by Table 5-24.

AddrR/WRegisterB7B6B5B4B3B2B1B0Default
2BhR/WMultiple Touch Pattern ConfigMTP_EN ---MTP_TH[1:0]COMP_PTRNMTP_ALERT00h

The Multiple Touch Pattern Configuration register controls the settings for the multiple touch pattern detection circuitry. This circuitry works like the multiple touch detection circuitry with the following differences:

  1. The detection threshold is a percentage of the touch detection threshold as defined by the MTP_TH[1:0] bits whereas the multiple touch circuitry uses the touch detection threshold.
  2. The MTP detection circuitry either will detect a specific pattern of sensor inputs as determined by the Multiple Touch Pattern register settings or it will use the Multiple Touch Pattern register settings to determine a minimum number of sensor inputs that will cause the MTP circuitry to flag an event (see Section 5.15, "Multiple Touch Pattern Register"). When using pattern recognition mode, if all of the sensor inputs set by the Multiple Touch Pattern register have a delta count greater than the MTP threshold or have their corresponding Noise Flag Status bits set, the MTP bit will be set. When using the absolute number mode, if the number of sensor inputs with thresholds above the MTP threshold or with Noise Flag Status bits set is equal to or greater than this number, the MTP bit will be set.

  3. When an MTP event occurs, all touches are blocked and an interrupt is generated.

  4. All sensor inputs will remain blocked so long as the requisite number of sensor inputs are above the MTP threshold or have Noise Flag Status bits set. Once this condition is removed, touch detection will be restored. Note that the MTP status bit is only cleared by writing a '0' to the INT bit once the condition has been removed.

Bit 7 - MTP_EN - Enables the multiple touch pattern detection circuitry.

- '0' (default) - The MTP detection circuitry is disabled.

- '1' - The MTP detection circuitry is enabled.

Bits 3 - 2 - MTP_TH[1:0] - Determine the MTP threshold, as shown in Table 5-26. This threshold is a percentage of sensor input threshold (see Section 5.18, "Sensor Input Threshold Registers") for inputs enabled in the Active state or of the standby threshold (see Section 5.23, "Standby Threshold Register") for inputs enabled in the Standby state.

Bit 1 - COMP_PTRN - Determines whether the MTP detection circuitry will use the Multiple Touch Pattern register as a specific pattern of sensor inputs or as an absolute number of sensor inputs.

- '0' (default) - The MTP detection circuitry will use the Multiple Touch Pattern register bit settings as an absolute minimum number of sensor inputs that must be above the threshold or have Noise Flag Status bits set. The number will be equal to the number of bits set in the register.

- '1' - The MTP detection circuitry will use pattern recognition. Each bit set in the Multiple Touch Pattern register indicates a specific sensor input that must have a delta count greater than the MTP threshold or have a Noise Flag Status bit set. If the criteria are met, the MTP status bit will be set.

Bit 0 - MTP_ALERT - Enables an interrupt if an MTP event occurs. In either condition, the MTP status bit will be set.

  • '0' (default) - If an MTP event occurs, the ALERT# pin is not asserted.
  • '1' - If an MTP event occurs, the ALERT# pin will be asserted.

The Multiple Touch Pattern register acts as a pattern to identify an expected sensor input profile for diagnostics or other significant events. There are two methods for how the Multiple Touch Pattern register is used: as specific sensor inputs or number of sensor input that must exceed the MTP threshold or have Noise Flag Status bits set. Which method is used is based on the COMP_PTRN bit (see Section 5.14). The methods are described below.

  1. Specific Sensor Inputs: If, during a single sensing cycle, the specific sensor inputs above the MTP threshold or with Noise Flag Status bits set match those bits set in the Multiple Touch Pattern register, an MTP event is flagged.
  2. Number of Sensor Inputs: If, during a single sensing cycle, the number of sensor inputs with a delta count above the MTP threshold or with Noise Flag Status bits set is equal to or greater than the number of pattern bits set, an MTP event is flagged.

For all bits in this register:

  • '0' - The specified sensor input is not considered a part of the pattern.
  • '1' - The specified sensor input is considered a part of the pattern, or the absolute number of sensor inputs that must have a delta count greater than the MTP threshold or have the Noise Flag Status bit set is increased by 1.

Bit 7 - CS8_PTRN - Determines whether CS8 is considered as part of the Multiple Touch Pattern.
Bit 6 - CS7_PTRN - Determines whether CS7 is considered as part of the Multiple Touch Pattern.
Bit 5 - CS6_PTRN - Determines whether CS6 is considered as part of the Multiple Touch Pattern.
Bit 4 - CS5_PTRN - Determines whether CS5 is considered as part of the Multiple Touch Pattern.
Bit 3 - CS4_PTRN - Determines whether CS4 is considered as part of the Multiple Touch Pattern.
Bit 2 - CS3_PTRN - Determines whether CS3 is considered as part of the Multiple Touch Pattern.

5.17 Recalibration Configuration Register

The Recalibration Configuration register controls some recalibration routine settings (see Section 4.4, "Sensor Input Calibration") as well as advanced controls to program the Sensor Input Threshold register settings.

Bit 7 - BUT_LD_TH - Enables setting all Sensor Input Threshold registers by writing to the Sensor Input 1 Threshold register.

  • '0' - Each Sensor Input X Threshold register is updated individually.
  • '1' (default) - Writing the Sensor Input 1 Threshold register will automatically overwrite the Sensor Input Threshold registers for all sensor inputs (Sensor Input Threshold 1 through Sensor Input Threshold 8). The individual Sensor Input X Threshold registers (Sensor Input 2 Threshold through Sensor Input 8 Threshold) can be individually updated at any time.

Bit 6 - NO_CLR_INTD - Controls whether the accumulation of intermediate data is cleared if the noise status bit is set.

- '0' (default) - The accumulation of intermediate data is cleared if the noise status bit is set.

- '1' - The accumulation of intermediate data is not cleared if the noise status bit is set.

APPLICATION NOTE: Bits 5 and 6 should both be set to the same value. Either both should be set to '0' or both should be set to '1'.

Bit 5 - NO_CLR_NEG - Controls whether the consecutive negative delta counts counter is cleared if the noise status bit is set.

'0' (default) - The consecutive negative delta counts counter is cleared if the noise status bit is set.

'1' - The consecutive negative delta counts counter is not cleared if the noise status bit is set.

Bits 4 - 3 - NEG_DELTA_CNT[1:0] - Determines the number of negative delta counts necessary to trigger a digital recalibration (see Section 4.4.2, "Negative Delta Count Recalibration"), as shown in Table 5-30.

008
0 1 16 (default)
103
1 1 None (disabled)

Bits 2 - 0 - CAL_CFG[2:0] - Determines the update time and number of samples of the automatic recalibration routine (see Section 4.4.1, "Automatic Recalibration"). The settings apply to all sensor inputs universally (though individual sensor inputs can be configured to support recalibration - see Section 5.10.1).

Note 5-1 Recalibration Samples refers to the number of samples that are measured and averaged before the Base Count is updated however does not control the base count update period.
Note 5-2 Update Time refers to the amount of time (in sensing cycle periods) that elapses before the Base Count is updated. The time will depend upon the number of channels enabled, the averaging setting, and the programmed sensing cycle time.

36h R/WSensor Input 7 Threshold-643216842140h
37h R/WSensor Input 8 Threshold-643216842140h

The Sensor Input Threshold registers store the delta threshold that is used to determine if a touch has been detected. When a touch occurs, the input signal of the corresponding sensor pad changes due to the capacitance associated with a touch. If the sensor input change exceeds the threshold settings, a touch is detected.

When the BUT_LD_TH bit is set (see Section 5.17 - bit 7), writing data to the Sensor Input 1 Threshold register will update all of the Sensor Input Threshold registers (31h - 37h inclusive).

5.19 Sensor Input Noise Threshold Register

Addr R/WRegister B7B6 B5 B4B3 B2 B1B0 Default
38hR/WSensor Input Noise Threshold------CS_BN_TH[1:0]01h

The Sensor Input Noise Threshold register controls the value of a secondary internal threshold to detect noise and improve the automatic recalibration routine. If a capacitive touch sensor input exceeds the Sensor Input Noise Threshold but does not exceed the sensor input threshold, it is determined to be caused by a noise spike. That sample is not used by the automatic recalibration routine. This feature can be disabled by setting the DIS_DIG_NOISE bit.

Bits 1-0 - CS1_BN_TH[1:0] - Controls the noise threshold for all capacitive touch sensor inputs, as shown in Table 5-34. The threshold is proportional to the threshold setting.

The Standby Channel register controls which (if any) capacitive touch sensor inputs are enabled in Standby (see Section 4.3.1.2, "Standby State Sensing Settings").

For all bits in this register:

  • '0' (default) - The specified channel will not be monitored in Standby.
  • '1' - The specified channel will be monitored in Standby. It will use the standby threshold setting, and the standby averaging and sensitivity settings.
    Bit 7 - CS8_STBY - Controls whether the CS8 channel is enabled in Standby.
    Bit 6 - CS7_STBY - Controls whether the CS7 channel is enabled in Standby.
    Bit 5 - CS6_STBY - Controls whether the CS6 channel is enabled in Standby.
    Bit 4 - CS5_STBY - Controls whether the CS5 channel is enabled in Standby.
    Bit 3 - CS4_STBY - Controls whether the CS4 channel is enabled in Standby.
    Bit 2 - CS3_STBY - Controls whether the CS3 channel is enabled in Standby.
    Bit 1 - CS2_STBY - Controls whether the CS2 channel is enabled in Standby.

41hR/WStandbyConfigurationAVG_SUMSTBY_AVG[2:0]STBY_SAMP_TIME[1:0]STBY_CY_TIME[1:0]39h

The Standby Configuration register controls averaging and sensing cycle time for sensor inputs enabled in Standby. This register allows the user to change averaging and sample times on a limited number of sensor inputs in Standby and still maintain normal functionality in the Active state.

Bit 7 - AVG_SUM - Determines whether the sensor inputs enabled in Standby will average the programmed number of samples or whether they will accumulate for the programmed number of samples.

  • '0' - (default) - The Standby enabled sensor input delta count values will be based on the average of the programmed number of samples when compared against the threshold.
  • '1' - The Standby enabled sensor input delta count values will be based on the summation of the programmed number of samples when compared against the threshold. Caution should be used with this setting as a touch may overflow the delta count registers and may result in false readings.

Bits 6 - 4 - STBY_AVG[2:0] - Determines the number of samples that are taken for all Standby enabled channels during the sensing cycle as shown in Table 5-37. All samples are taken consecutively on the same channel before the next channel is sampled and the result is averaged over the number of samples measured before updating the measured results.

Bits 1 - 0 - STBY_CY_TIME[2:0] - Determines the desired sensing cycle time for sensor inputs enabled during Standby, as shown in Table 5-39. All enabled channels are sampled at the beginning of the sensing cycle. If additional time is remaining, the device is placed into a lower power state for the remainder of the sensing cycle.

APPLICATION NOTE: The programmed sensing cycle time (STDBY_CY_TIME[1:0] is only maintained if the actual time to take the samples is less than the programmed cycle time. The STBY_AVG[2:0] bits will take priority, so the sensing cycle time will be extended as necessary to accommodate the number of samples to be measured.

5.22 Standby Sensitivity Register

TABLE 5-40: STANDBY SENSITIVITY REGISTER

AddrR/WRegisterB7B6B5B4B3B2B1B0Default
42hR/WStandby Sensitivity-----STBY_SENSE[2:0]02h

The Standby Sensitivity register controls the sensitivity for sensor inputs enabled in Standby.

Bits 2 - 0 - STBY_SENSE[2:0] - Controls the sensitivity for sensor inputs that are enabled in Standby. The sensitivity settings act to scale the relative delta count value higher or lower based on the system parameters. A setting of 000b is the most sensitive while a setting of 111b is the least sensitive. At the more sensitive settings, touches are detected for a smaller delta capacitance corresponding to a "lighter" touch. These settings are more sensitive to noise, however, and a noisy environment may flag more false touches than higher sensitivity levels.

APPLICATION NOTE: A value of 128x is the most sensitive setting available. At the most sensitivity settings, the MSB of the Delta Count register represents 64 out of \~25,000 which corresponds to a touch of approximately 0.25% of the base capacitance (or a C of 25fF from a 10pF base capacitance). Conversely a value of 1x is the least sensitive setting available. At these settings, the MSB of the Delta Count register corresponds to a delta count of 8192 counts out of \~25,000 which corresponds to a touch of approximately 33% of the base capacitance (or a C of 3.33pF from a 10pF base capacitance).

The Sensor Input Base Count registers store the calibrated “not touched” input value from the capacitive touch sensor inputs. These registers are periodically updated by the calibration and recalibration routines.

The routine uses an internal adder to add the current count value for each reading to the sum of the previous readings until sample size has been reached. At this point, the upper 16 bits are taken and used as the Sensor Input Base Count. The internal adder is then reset and the recalibration routine continues.

The data presented is determined by the BASE_SHIFT[3:0] bits (see Section 5.5).

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:

  • Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
  • Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the intended manner and under normal conditions.
  • There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip's Data Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
  • Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
  • Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”

Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our products. Attempts to break Microchip's code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
