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.

Sensor Input Delta Count Registers

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.

Sensitivity Control Register

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
