SMSC CAP1188 41 Revision 1.32 (01-05-12)
DATASHEET
During Power-On-Reset (POR), the default values are stored in the registers. A POR is initiated when
power is first applied to the part and the voltage on the VDD supply surpasses the POR level as
specified in the electrical characteristics. Any reads to undefined registers will return 00h. Writes to
undefined registers will not have an effect.
When a bit is “set”, this means that the user writes a logic ‘1’ to it. When a bit is “cleared”, this means
that the user writes a logic ‘0’ to it.
5.1 Main Control Register
The Main Control register controls the primary power state of the device.
Bits 7 - 6 - GAIN[1:0] - Controls the gain used by the capacitive touch sensing circuitry. As the gain is
increased, the effective sensitivity is likewise increased as a smaller delta capacitance is required to
generate the same delta count values. The sensitivity settings may need to be adjusted along with the
gain settings such that data overflow does not occur.
APPLICATION NOTE: The gain settings apply to both Standby and Active states.
