6.1
The MPR084 has three primary methods for reporting data in addition to an IRQ output that is described in Chapter 7. The three
output systems are described in this section.
6.2
The Instantaneous output shows the current status of the user interface. This information is displayed in terms of the current
touched pad position that is touched. Only one touch can be shown at a time.
6.2.1 Touch Pad Status Register
The Touch Pad Status Register is a read only register for determining the current status of the touch pad. The I
of the Touch Pad Status Register is 0x02.
