Transcription of Capacitive Touch Using Only an ADC (CVD) App. Note
{{id}} {{{paragraph}}}
AN1298. Capacitive Touch Using only an ADC ( CVD ). Sensing Steps Authors: Thomas Perme Dieter Peter To perform the sensing, do the following: Microchip Technology Inc. 1. Drive secondary channel to VDD as digital output. INTRODUCTION 2. Point ADC to the secondary VDD pin (charges CHOLD to VDD). This application note describes a new hardware 3. Ground sensor line. sensing method called Capacitive Voltage Divider 4. Turn sensor line as input (TRISx = 1). (CVD) which uses no external components. It requires 5. Point ADC to sensor channel (voltage divider only the ADC to perform Capacitive Touch sensing.)
