measurements of capacitance and time, as well as for
accurate time delay. If the application only requires
measurement of a relative change in capacitance or
time, calibration is usually not necessary. An example of
this type of application would include a capacitive touch
switch, in which the touch circuit has a baseline
body changes the overall capacitance of a circuit.
If actual capacitance or time measurement is required,
two hardware calibrations must take place: the current
source needs calibration to set it to a precise current,
and the circuit being measured needs calibration to
measure and/or nullify all other capacitance other than
that to be measured.
19.3.1
The current source on board the CTMU module has a
range of ±60% nominal for each of three current
ranges. Therefore, for precise measurements, it is
possible to measure and adjust this current source by
placing a high precision resistor, R
analog channel. An example circuit is shown in

The CTMU current source may be trimmed with the
trim bits in CTMUICON using an iterative process to get
an exact desired current. Alternatively, the nominal
value without adjustment may be used; it may be
stored by the software for use in all subsequent
capacitive or time measurements.
To calculate the value for R
must be chosen, and then the resistance can be
calculated. For example, if the A/D Converter reference
voltage is 3.3V, use 70% of full scale, or 2.31V as the
desired approximate voltage to be read by the A/D
Converter. If the range of the CTMU current source is
selected to be 0.55 A, the resistor value needed is cal-
culated as R
Similarly, if the current source is chosen to be 5.5 A,
R
source is set to 55 A.

FIGURE 19-2:
A value of 70% of full-scale voltage is chosen to make
sure that the A/D Converter was in a range that is well
above the noise floor. Keep in mind that if an exact cur-
rent is chosen, that is to incorporate the trimming bits
