Operating Modes of I
Normal Mode
In normal mode of operation, the acknowledgment time is
optimized. The timings remain approximately the same for
different
acknowledgment times in
0x06–0x09, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x10–0x17, 0x50, 0x51, 0x57–0x60,
0x7E are given only read access. Write to these registers can be
done only in setup mode.
Setup Mode
All registers have read and write access (except those which are
read only) in this mode. The acknowledgment times are longer
compared to normal mode. When CapSense scanning is
disabled (command code 0x0A in command register 0xA0), the
acknowledgment times can be improved to values similar to the
normal mode of operation.
Device Operation Modes
CapSense Express devices are configured to operate in any of
the following three modes to meet different power consumption
requirements
■
■
■
Active Mode
In the active mode, all the device blocks including the CapSense
sub system are powered. Typical active current consumption of
the device across the operating voltage range is 1.5 mA.
Periodic Sleep Mode
Sleep mode provides an intermediate power operation mode. It
is enabled by configuring the corresponding device registers
(0x7E, 0x7F). The device goes into sleep after there is no event
for stay awake counter (Reg 0x80) number of sleep intervals.

The device wakes up on sleep interval and It scans the
capacitive sensors before going back to sleep again. If any
sensor is active then the device wakes up. The device can also
wake up from sleep mode with a GPIO interrupt. The following
sleep intervals are supported in CapSense Express. The sleep
interval is configured through registers.

Deep Sleep Mode
Deep sleep mode provides the lowest power consumption
because there is no operation running. All CapSense scanning
is disabled during this mode. In this mode, the device is woken
up only using an external GPIO interrupt. A sleep timer interrupt
cannot wake up a device from deep sleep mode. This is treated
as a continuous sleep mode without periodic wakeups. Refer to
the application note
Considerations – AN44209
To get the lowest power during this mode the sleep timer
frequency should be set to 1 Hz.
Sleep Control Pin
The devices require a dedicated sleep control pin to enable
reliable I
This is achieved by pulling the sleep control pin Low to wake up
the device and start I

Interrupt Pin to Master
To inform the master of any button press, a GPIO can be
configured as interrupt output and all CapSense buttons can be
connected to this GPIO with OR logic operator. This can be
configured using the software tool.
