PSOC™ 4 Capacitive Sensing (CAPSENSE™)

综述

General Description

Symbol Diagram

CAPSENSE™ is a capacitive sensing solution. It supports multiple widgets (group of sensors used to form an interface) using both CSX and CSD sensing methods.

The CAPSENSE™ component solution includes a configuration wizard to create and configure CAPSENSE™ Widgets, APIs to control the component from application firmware, and a CAPSENSE™ Tuner application for tuning, testing, and debugging.

Note The CAPSENSE™ P4 v3.0 component (and any version that follows) is not backward compatible with CAPSENSE™_CSD_P4 v2.40 or older. If you wish to migrate your design to the new CAPSENSE™ P4 v3.0 component, refer to the “Migration Guide” section in the datasheet for details on how to manually transition the design.

Features

  • Offers best-in-class signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
  • Supports Self-Capacitance (CSD) and Mutual-Capacitance (CSX) sensing methods
  • Features SmartSense™ auto-tuning technology for CSD sensing to avoid complex manual tuning process
  • Supports various Widgets, such as Buttons, Matrix Buttons, Sliders, Touchpads, and Proximity Sensors
  • Provides ultra-low power consumption and liquid tolerant capacitive sensing technology
  • Contains integrated graphical tuner for manual tuning, testing, and debugging

This component supports all CAPSENSE™ enabled devices in the PSOC 4 family of devices, including:

  • Third generation CAPSENSE™: PSOC™ 4000, PSOC™ 4100, PSOC™ 4200, PSOC™ 4100M, PSOC™ 4200M, PSOC™ 4200L, PSOC™ 4100 BLE, PSOC™ 4200 BLE, and PRoC BLE
  • Fourth generation CAPSENSE™: PSOC™ 4000S, PSOC™ 4100S, and PSOC™ Analog Coprocessor

However, some features are restricted in specific devices:

  • The second hardware CSD block is not supported for PSOC™ 4100M / PSOC™ 4200M devices.
  • CSX Sensing mode is not supported for PSOC™ 4100 devices.
  • The CSD2x functionality will be available in the next version of the component.
  • The Export Register Map feature will be available in the next component version.
  • The sourcing IDAC sensing configuration is not available for fourth generation CAPSENSE™ devices and will be available in the next version of the component.
