CAP1166

• ‘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 re-

calibration as shown in Table 6-30.

Bits 2 - 0 - CAL_CFG[2:0] - Determines the update time and number of samples of the automatic re-calibration routine.

The settings apply to all sensor inputs universally (though individual sensor inputs can be configured to support re-cal-

ibration - see Section 6.11).

Note 6-1

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 6-2

Update Time refers to the amount of time (in polling cycle periods) that elapses before the Base

Count is updated. The time will depend upon the number of channels active, the averaging setting,

and the programmed cycle time.
