tion 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 capac-

itive sensor inputs. While in Deep Sleep, the CAP1206 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 com-

munications have stopped. The device can be returned to the Active state of operation by clearing the DSLEEP

bit.

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.

Capacitive Touch Sensing

The CAP1206 contains six (6) 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

(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 chan-

nel 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
