CAP1293 3-Channel Capacitive Touch Sensor with Proximity Detection & Signal Guard General Description Applications The CAP1293 is a multiple channel capacitive touch sensor controller. It contains three (3) 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. * * * * In addition, the CAP1293 can be configured to detect proximity on one or more channels with an optional signal guard to reduce noise sensitivity and to isolate the proximity antenna from nearby conductive surfaces that would otherwise attenuate the e-field. * Three (3) Capacitive Touch Sensor Inputs - Programmable sensitivity - Automatic recalibration - Calibrates for parasitic capacitance - Individual thresholds for each button * Proximity Detection * Signal Guard - Isolates the proximity antenna from attenuation - Reduces system noise sensitivity effects on inputs * Multiple Button Pattern Detection * Power Button Support * Press and Hold Feature for Volume-like Applications * 3.3V or 5V Supply * Analog Filtering for System Noise Sources * RF Detection and Avoidance Filters * Digital EMI Blocker * 8kV ESD Rating on All Pins (HBM) * Low Power Operation - 5A quiescent current in Deep Sleep - 50A quiescent current in Standby (1 sensor input monitored) - Samples one or more channels in Standby * SMBus / I2C Compliant Communication Interface * Available in an 8-pin 2mm x 3mm TDFN RoHS compliant package * Available in an 8-pin SOIC RoHS compliant package The CAP1293 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 CAP1293 has Active and Standby states, each with its own sensor input configuration controls. The Combo state allows a combination of sensor input controls to be used which enables one or more sensor inputs to operate as buttons while another sensor input is operating as a proximity detector. Power consumption in the Standby and Combo states 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 5A (typical) of current. In this state, no sensor inputs are active, and communications will wake the device. 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.

The SMBus is a twowire 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 CAP1293 will not stretch the clock signal. FIGURE 3-1: SMBUS TIMING DIAGRAM T HIGH T LO W T HD :STA T SU:STO T FALL SM CLK T RISE T HD :STA T SU:DAT T HD :DAT T SU :STA SM D ATA T BUF P 3.2.1 S S - Start Condition S P - Stop C ondition P 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. 3.2.3 The CAP1293responds to SMBus address 0101_000(r/w). 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 CAP1293 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. DS00001566B-page 10 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. CAP1293 3.2.6 SMBUS TIMEOUT The CAP1293 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 I2C COMPATIBILITY The major differences between SMBus and I2C devices are highlighted here. For more information, refer to the SMBus 2.0 specification. CAP1293 supports I2C fast mode at 400kHz. This covers the SMBus max time of 100kHz. Minimum frequency for SMBus communications is 10kHz. The SMBus client protocol will reset if the clock is held low longer than 30ms (timeout condition). This can be enabled in the CAP1293 by setting the TIMEOUT bit in the Configuration register. I2C does not have a timeout. 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 CAP1293 by setting the TIMEOUT bit in the Configuration register. I2C does not have an idle condition. I2C devices do not support the Alert Response Address functionality (which is optional for SMBus). I2C devices support block read and write differently. I2C 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 CAP1293 supports I2C formatting only. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 3.3 SMBus Protocols The CAP1293 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. TABLE 3-1: 3.3.1 PROTOCOL FORMAT Data Sent to Device Data Sent to the HOst Data sent Data sent SMBUS WRITE BYTE The Write Byte is used to write one byte of data to a specific register as shown in Table 3-2.

No data is transferred during the Send Byte protocol as shown in Table 3-4. APPLICATION NOTE: The Send Byte protocol is not functional in Deep Sleep (i.e., DSLEEP bit is set).

APPLICATION NOTE: When using the Block Read protocol, the internal address pointer will be automatically incremented after every data byte is received. It will wrap from FFh to 00h.

DS00001566B-page 13 0 -> 1 CAP1293 4.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The CAP1293 is a multiple channel capacitive touch sensor. It contains three (3) 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. In addition, the CAP1293 can be configured to detect proximity on one or more channels with an optional signal guard to reduce noise sensitivity. The CAP1293includes 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 CAP1293 has Active and Standby states, each with its own sensor input configuration controls. The Combo state allows a combination of sensor input controls to be used which enables one or more sensor inputs to operate as buttons while another sensor input is operating as a proximity detector. Power consumption in the Standby and Combo states 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 5A (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 / I2C. 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:. FIGURE 4-1: SYSTEM DIAGRAM FOR CAP1293 3.0V to 5.5V Embedded Controller 10kOhm resistors Touch Button Proximity Sensor CS1 ALERT# SMDATA SMCLK 3.0V to 5.5V 0.1uF 1.0uF VDD CAP1293 GND CS3 SG* * CS2 / SG is a multi-function pin. If not using the signal guard shown here, CS2 can be another touch button. 4.1 Power States The CAP1293 has 4 power states depending on the status of the STBY, COMBO, 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. DS00001566B-page 14 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. CAP1293 2. 3. 4. 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. Combo - When the COMBO bit is set, the device is monitoring capacitive sensor inputs enabled in the Active state as well as inputs enabled in the Standby state (hence the name "Combo"). 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 COMBO bit. Power consumption in this state is dependent on the number of sensor inputs enabled as well as averaging, sampling time, and cycle time. 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 CAP1293 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 VDD has reached an acceptable level, Power-on Reset Release Voltage (VPORR), 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 VDD reaches VPORR. POR and PORR with slow rising VDD is shown in Figure 4-2. The Brown-Out Reset (BOR) circuit holds the device in reset when VDD falls to a minimum level, VBOR for longer than the BOR reset delay (tBORDC). After a BOR, when VDD rises above VPORR, the power-up timer is started again and must finish before reset is released, as shown in Figure 4-2. FIGURE 4-2: POR AND PORR WITH SLOW RISING VDD AND BOR WITH FALLING VDD VPORR VBOR VPOR VDD GND SYSRST TPWRT TBORDC TPWRT Undefined 4.3 Capacitive Touch Sensing The CAP1293 contains three (3) 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 5.19, "Sensor Input Threshold Registers"). 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001566B-page 15 CAP1293 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 5.21, "Standby Channel Register"). Sensitivity is controlled by the Standby Sensitivity Register (see Section 5.23, "Standby Sensitivity Register"). Averaging, sample time, and cycle time are controlled by the Averaging and Sampling Configuration Register (see Section 5.22, "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 5.24, "Standby Threshold Register"). 4.3.1.3 Combo State Sensing Settings The Combo state is used when a combination of proximity detection and normal button operation is required. When the COMBO bit is set, the sensing cycle includes sensor inputs enabled in the Active state as well as sensor inputs enabled in the Standby state. Sensor inputs enabled in the Active state will use the Active settings described in Section 4.3.1.1, "Active State Sensing Settings". Sensor inputs enabled in the Standby state will use the Standby settings described in Section 4.3.1.2, "Standby State Sensing Settings". If a sensor input is enabled in both the Active state and in the Standby state, the Active state settings will be used in Combo state. The programmed cycle time is determined by STBY_CY_TIME[1:0]. The Combo state also has two gain settings. When the COMBO bit is set, the GAIN[1:0] control only applies to the sensors enabled in the Active state, and the C_GAIN[1:0] control applies to the sensors enabled in the Standby state. 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 CS3. 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 4.9.2, "Capacitive Sensor Input Interrupt Behavior"). The sensing cycle time is programmable (see Section 5.10, "Averaging and Sampling Configuration Register" and Section 5.22, "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 5.25, "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, when the gain is changed, when the calibration sensitivity 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 RegisterSection 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 5.17, "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 DS00001566B-page 16 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. CAP1293 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"). Calibration sensitivity can be adjusted for each sensor input based on capacitive touch pad capacitance. 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 5.18, "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 5.18, "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 Proximity Detection Each sensor input can be configured to detect changes in capacitance due to proximity of a touch. This circuitry detects the change of capacitance that is generated as an object approaches, but does not physically touch, the enabled sensor pad(s). Generally, sensor inputs used to detect proximity have physically larger pads than standard buttons. In addition, gain should be increased to increase sensitivity. To improve the signal, the signal guard feature may be used. 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001566B-page 17 CAP1293 4.5.1 SIGNAL GUARD The signal guard isolates the signal from virtual grounds, as shown in Figure 4-3. It can be used to isolate the proximity antenna from nearby conductive surfaces that would otherwise attenuate the e-field. FIGURE 4-3: SIGNAL GUARD CAP129X Device SIGNAL_GUARD 4.6 CS pin Touch Pad CS pin Touch Pad Power Button The CAP1293 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 5.26, "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 5.27, "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. If the power button feature is enabled for both Standby and Active and the COMBO bit is set, the Standby power button settings will be used. 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"). 4.7 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 5.15, "Multiple Touch Pattern Configuration Register"). 4.8 4.8.1 Noise Controls 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"). 4.8.2 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"). DS00001566B-page 18 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. CAP1293 4.8.3 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 5.20, "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 5.19, "Sensor Input Threshold Registers") in the Active state or Sensor Standby Threshold in the Standby state (Section 5.24, "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"). 4.9 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"). 4.9.1 ALERT# PIN The ALERT# pin is an active low output that is driven when an interrupt event is detected. 4.9.2 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. 2. 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 4-5:. 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 4-4:). 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 4.9.3, "Interrupts for the Power Button". APPLICATION NOTE: FIGURE 4-4: and FIGURE 4-5: 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. 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.

A touch must be held on the power button for the designated period of time before an interrupt is generated. 4.9.4 INTERRUPTS FOR MULTIPLE TOUCH PATTERN DETECTION An interrupt can be generated when the MTP pattern is matched (see Section 5.15, "Multiple Touch Pattern Configuration Register"). 4.9.5 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"). DS00001566B-page 20 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. CAP1293 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"). 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.

As the gain is increased, the effective sensitivity is likewise increased as a smaller delta capacitance is required to generate the same delta count values. The sensitivity settings may need to be adjusted along with the gain settings such that data overflow does not occur. APPLICATION NOTE: The GAIN[1:0] settings apply to both Standby and Active states, unless the COMBO bit is set. When the COMBO bit is set, this control only applies to the sensors enabled in the Active state, and the C_GAIN[1:0] control applies to the sensors enabled in the Standby state. APPLICATION NOTE: Whenever the gain settings change, the device will recalibrate all sensor inputs as if they had no base count.

Capacitive touch sensor input scanning is limited to the sensor inputs set in the Standby Channel register (see Section 5.21, "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.

Bits 3 - 2 - C_GAIN[1:0] - When the COMBO bit is set, this bit controls the analog gain used for capacitive touch sensor inputs enabled in the Standby state. As the gain is increased, the effective sensitivity is likewise increased as a smaller delta capacitance is required to generate the same delta count values. The Standby sensitivity settings may need to be adjusted along with the gain settings such that data overflow does not occur. APPLICATION NOTE: The C_GAIN[1:0] setting is only used if the COMBO bit is set. When the COMBO bit is set, this control only applies to the sensors enabled in the Standby state, and the GAIN[1:0] control applies to the sensors enabled in the Active state. Bit 1 - COMBO - Enables Combo state (see Section 4.3.1.3, "Combo State Sensing Settings"). * `0' (default) - The device is not in the Combo state. * `1' - The device is in the Combo state. The device is monitoring sensor inputs enabled in the Active state (see Section 5.7, "Sensor Input Enable Register") as well as those enabled in the Standby state (see Section 5.21, "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 0 - INT - Indicates that there is an interrupt (see Section 4.9, "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. 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.

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 5.17, "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 4.6, "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 2 - MULT - Indicates that the device is blocking detected touches due to the Multiple Touch detection circuitry (see Section 5.14, "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 5.15, "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 2 - CS3 - Indicates that a touch was detected on Sensor Input 3. Bit 1 - CS2 - Indicates that a touch was detected on Sensor Input 2. Bit 0 - CS1 - Indicates that a touch was detected on Sensor Input 1. DS00001566B-page 26 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.

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 4.7, "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. 5.4 Sensor Input Delta Count Registers TABLE 5-7: SENSOR INPUT DELTA COUNT REGISTERS Addr R/W Register B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 Default 10h R Sensor Input 1 Delta Count Sign 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 00h 11h R Sensor Input 2 Delta Count Sign 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 00h 12h R Sensor Input 3 Delta Count Sign 64 32 16 8 4 2 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. 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.

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).

The scale factor represents the multiplier to the bit-weighting presented in these register descriptions. APPLICATION NOTE: The BASE_SHIFT[3:0] bits normally do not need to be updated. These settings will not affect touch detection or sensitivity. These bits are sometimes helpful in analyzing the Cap Sensing board performance and stability.

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.

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 5.28, "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). 2. 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. 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001566B-page 35 CAP1293 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 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. 5.11 Interrupt Enable Register TABLE 5-23: INTERRUPT ENABLE REGISTER Addr R/W Register B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 Default 27h R/W Interrupt Enable - - - - - CS3_ INT_EN CS2_ INT_EN CS1_ INT_EN 07h The Interrupt Enable register determines whether a sensor pad touch or release (if enabled) causes an interrupt (see Section 4.9, "Interrupts").

Bit 2 - CS3_INT_EN - Enables the ALERT# pin to be asserted if a touch is detected on CS3 (associated with the CS3 status bit). Bit 1 - CS2_INT_EN - Enables the ALERT# pin to be asserted if a touch is detected on CS2 (associated with the CS2 status bit).

It will only generate an interrupt when a touch is DS00001566B-page 36 2013-2015 Microchip Technology Inc. CAP1293 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 - 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 - CS3) 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.

This circuitry works like the multiple touch detection circuitry with the following differences: 1. 2. 3. 4. 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. 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 5.16, "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. When an MTP event occurs, all touches are blocked and an interrupt is generated. 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 5-29. This threshold is a percentage of sensor input threshold (see Section 5.19, "Sensor Input Threshold Registers") for inputs enabled in the Active state or of the standby threshold (see Section 5.24, "Standby Threshold Register") for inputs enabled in the Standby state.

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. 5.16 Multiple Touch Pattern Register TABLE 5-30: MULTIPLE TOUCH PATTERN REGISTER Addr R/W Register B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 Default 2Dh R/W Multiple Touch Pattern - - - - - CS3_ PTRN CS2_ PTRN CS1_ PTRN 07h 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 5.15). The methods are described below. 1. 2. 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. 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.

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 5.18 - bit 7), writing data to the Sensor Input 1 Threshold register will update all of the Sensor Input Threshold registers (31h - 32h inclusive). 5.20 Sensor Input Noise Threshold Register TABLE 5-36: SENSOR INPUT NOISE THRESHOLD REGISTER Addr R/W Register B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 38h R/W Sensor Input Noise Threshold - - - - - - B1 B0 CS_BN_TH [1:0] Default 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 5-37. The threshold is proportional to the threshold setting.

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 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. Bit 0 - CS1_STBY - Controls whether the CS1 channel is enabled in Standby. 5.22 Standby Configuration Register TABLE 5-39: STANDBY CONFIGURATION REGISTER Addr R/W Register B7 41h R/W Standby Configuration AVG_ SUM B6 B5 B4 STBY_AVG[2:0] B3 B2 STBY_SAMP_ TIME[1:0] B1 B0 STBY_CY_TIME [1:0] Default 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 5-40. 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.

This control is also used to determine programmed cycle time in the Combo state (see Section 4.3.1.3, "Combo State Sensing Settings"). 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.

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).

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). 5.26 Power Button Register TABLE 5-47: POWER BUTTON REGISTER Addr R/W Register B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 60h R/W Power Button - - - - - B2 B1 PWR_BTN[2:0] B0 Default 00h The Power Button Register indicates the sensor input that has been designated as the power button (see Section 4.6, "Power Button").
