26.1.5
The CTMU sets its interrupt flag (PIR3<2>) whenever
the current source is enabled, then disabled. An inter-
rupt is generated only if the corresponding interrupt
enable bit (PIE3<2>) is also set. If edge sequencing is
not enabled (i.e., Edge 1 must occur before Edge 2), it
is necessary to monitor the edge status bits and
determine which edge occurred last and caused the
interrupt.

Depending on the type of measurement or pulse
generation being performed, one or more additional
modules may also need to be initialized and configured
with the CTMU module:
• Edge Source Generation: In addition to the
• Capacitance or Time Measurement: The CTMU
• Pulse Generation: When generating system
26.3
The CTMU requires calibration for precise measure-
ments 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 appli-
cation would include a capacitive touch switch, in which
the touch circuit has a baseline capacitance, and the
added capacitance of the human 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.
26.3.1
The current source on board the CTMU module has a
range of ±62% 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
Figure 26-2. The current source measurement is
performed using the following steps:
