POSITIVE RECALIBRATION DELAY: If any key is found to have a significant drop in
capacitance, i.e. an “away from touch” signal, then this is deemed to be an error condition. If this
condition persists for more than the Positive Recalibration Delay (PRD) period, then an
automatic recalibration is carried out on all keys.
The condition that the error is triggered on depends on the drift compensation mode. If relative
referencing drifting is enabled (DRIFT = 0), then an “away from touch” delta of more than four
counts triggers the error. If only normal mode drifting is enabled (DRIFT = 1), then an “away from
touch” delta of more than 75 percent of the NTHR triggers the error.
The PRD is incremented according to the current LP mode setting (the duration is equal to the
cycle time multiplied by the PRD value).
Default: ~7 ms x 40 = 280 ms (in free-run mode)
NTHR Keys 0 – 5: these 8-bit values set the threshold value for each key to register a detection.
Default: 10 counts
LP Mode: this 8-bit value determines the number of 16 ms intervals between key
measurements. Longer intervals between measurements yield lower power consumption at the
expense of slower response to touch.
