Overview
The CapSense® Express™ controllers support two capacitive
sensing (CapSense) buttons and two general purpose outputs in
CY8C20121 and one CapSense button and one general
purpose output in CY8C20111. The device functionality is
configured through the I2C port and can be stored in on-board
nonvolatile memory for automatic loading at power on. The
digital outputs are controlled from CapSense inputs in factory
default settings, but are user configurable for direct control
through I2C.
The four key blocks that make up the CY8C20111 and
CY8C20121 controllers are: a robust capacitive sensing core
with high immunity against radiated and conductive noise,
control registers with nonvolatile storage, configurable outputs,
and I2C communications. The user can configure registers with
parameters needed to adjust the operation and sensitivity of the
CapSense buttons and outputs and permanently store the
settings. The standard I2C serial communication interface allows
the host to configure the device and read sensor information in
real time. I2C address is fully configurable without any external
hardware strapping.

Note
4. For low power requirements, if VDD is to be turned off, the above concept can be used. The VDDs of CapSense Express, I2C pull-ups, and LEDs must be from the
same source. Turning off the VDD ensures that no signal is applied to the device while it is unpowered. The I2C signals should not be driven high by the master in
this situation. If a port pin or group of port pins can cater to the power supply requirement of the circuit, the LDO can be avoided.

Operating Modes
I2C Interface
Normal Mode
The CapSense Express devices support the industry standard
I2C protocol, which can be used to:
In normal mode of operation, the acknowledgment time is
optimized. The timings remain approximately the same for
different configurations of the slave. To reduce the
acknowledgment times in normal mode, the registers 0x07,
0x08, 0x11, 0x50, 0x51, 0x5C, 0x5D are given only read access.
Writing to these registers can be done only in setup mode.
Setup Mode
All registers have read and write access (except those which are
read only) in this mode. The acknowledgment times are longer
compared to normal mode. When CapSense scanning is
disabled (command code 0x0A in command register 0xA0), the
acknowledgment times can be improved to values similar to the
normal mode of operation.

■

The I2C address can be modified during configuration.
I2C Device Addressing
The device uses a seven bit addressing protocol. The I2C data
transfer is always initiated by the master sending one byte
address; first 7-bit contains address and LSb indicates the data
transfer direction. Zero in the LSb indicates the write transaction
form master and one indicates read transfer by the master.
Table 3 shows example for different I2C addresses.

I2C Clock Stretching
“Clock stretching” or “bus stalling” in I2C communication protocol
is a state in which the slave holds the SCL line low to indicate
that it is busy. In this condition, the master is expected to wait
until the SCL is released by the slave.
When an I2C master communicates with the CapSense Express
device, the CapSense Express stalls the I2C bus after the
reception of each byte (that is, just before the ACK/NAK bit) until
processing of the byte is complete and critical internal functions
are executed. Use a fully I2C compliant master to communicate
with the CapSense Express device.
An I2C master which does not support clock stretching (a bit
banged software I2C Master) must wait for a specific amount of
time specified (as shown in the section Format for Register Write
and Read) for each register write and read operation before the
next bit is transmitted. It is mandatory to check the SCL status (it
should be high) before I2C master initiates any data transfer with
CapSense Express. If the master fails to do so and continues to
communicate, the communication is erroneous.
The following diagrams represent the ACK time delays shown in
the Register Map on page 7.

This register is used to enable logic operation on GP outputs. OP_SEL_0 should be configured to get the logic operation output on
DIG0 output and OP_SEL_1 for DIG1 output. Write to these registers during the disable state of respective DIG output pins does not
have any effect.
The input to the logic operation can be selected in LOGIC_OPRX registers. The selected inputs can be ORed or ANDed. The output
of logic operation can also be inverted.

When the new raw count value is above the current baseline and the difference is below the noise threshold, the difference between
the current baseline and the raw count is accumulated into a “bucket.” When the bucket fills, the baseline increments and the bucket
is emptied. This parameter sets the threshold that the bucket must reach for the baseline to increment. In other words, lower value
provides faster baseline update rate and vice versa. This parameter is common for all sensors.
The range is 0 to 255.

The registers set the CapSense module frequency of operation and enables or disables the sensor auto reset.
CS_CLK bits provides option to select variable clock input for the CapSense block. A sensor design having higher paratactic requires
lower clock for better performance and vice versa.
Sensor Auto Reset determines whether the baseline is updated at all times or only when the signal difference is below the noise
threshold. When set to ‘1’ (enabled), the baseline is updated constantly. This setting limits the maximum time duration of the sensor,
but it prevents the sensors from permanently turning on when the raw count suddenly rises without anything touching the sensor. This
sudden rise can be caused by a large power supply voltage fluctuation, a high energy RF noise source, or a very quick temperature
change. When the parameter is set to ‘0’ (disabled), the baseline is updated only when raw count and baseline difference is below
the noise threshold parameter. This parameter may be enabled unless there is a demand to keep the sensors in the on state for a
long time. This parameter is common for all sensors.

The Hysteresis parameter adds to or subtracts from the finger threshold depending on whether the sensor is currently active or
inactive. If the sensor is off, the difference count must overcome the ‘finger threshold + hysteresis’. If the sensor is on, the difference
count must go below the ‘finger threshold – hysteresis’. It is used to add debouncing and “stickiness” to the finger detection algorithm.
This parameter is common for all sensors.
Possible values are 0 to 255. However, the setting must be lower than the finger threshold parameter setting. Recommended value
for hysteresis is 15 percent of finger threshold.

The current register settings are saved in nonvolatile memory (flash). This setting is
automatically loaded after the next device reset/power-up or if the Reconfigure Device
(06h) command is issued.
02h
Restore Factory

Replaces the saved user configuration with the factory default configuration. Current
settings are unaffected by this command. New settings are loaded after the next device
reset/power-up or if the 06h command is issued.
03h
Write POR Defaults
Sends new power-up defaults to the CapSense controller without changing current
settings unless the 06h command is issued afterwards. This command is followed by
123 data bytes according to the POR Default Data Structure table. The CRC is calculated
as the XOR of the 122 data bytes (00h-79h). If the CRC check fails or an incomplete
block is sent, the slave responds with an ACK and the data is NOT saved to flash.
To define new POR defaults:

Allows the user to start CSA scanning after it has been stopped using command 0x0A.
Note that at POR, scanning is enabled and started by default if one or more sensors are
enabled.
0Ah
Stop CapSense
Scanning
Allows the user to stop CSA scanning. A system host controller might initiate this
command before powering down the device to make sure that during power-down no
CapSense touches are detected.
When CSA scanning is stopped by the user and the device is still in the valid VCC
operating range, the following behavior is supported:
0Bh
Returns CapSense
Scanning Status
Document Number: 001-53516 Rev. *H
■
Any change to configuration can still be done (as long as VCC is in operating range).
■
Command code 0x06 overrides the status of stop/scan by enabling and starting CSA
scanning if one or more sensors are enabled.
■
CapSense read-back values return 0x00.
The I2C buffer is loaded with the one-byte CSA scanning status value. After writing the
value 0Bh to the A0h register, reading one byte returns the CSA scanning status. It
returns the LVD_STOP_SCAN and STOP_SCAN bits.
LVD_STOP_SCAN is bit 3 - Set when CSA is stopped because VCC is outside the valid
operating range. STOP_SCAN is bit 2 - Set when CSA is stopped by the user by writing
command 0x0A.

width, the master device is the one that controls the timing for data exchanges between the cascaded devices
and an external interface. The controlled device is called the slave device.
microcontroller
An integrated circuit chip that is designed primarily for control systems and products. In addition to a CPU, a
microcontroller typically includes memory, timing circuits, and I/O circuitry. The reason for this is to permit the
realization of a controller with a minimal quantity of chips, thus achieving maximal possible miniaturization. This
in turn, reduces the volume and the cost of the controller. The microcontroller is normally not used for
general-purpose computation as is a microprocessor.

digits of the binary data either always even (even parity) or always odd (odd parity).
Phase-locked
loop (PLL)
An electronic circuit that controls an oscillator so that it maintains a constant phase angle relative to a reference
signal.
pinouts
The pin number assignment: the relation between the logical inputs and outputs of the PSoC device and their
physical counterparts in the printed circuit board (PCB) package. Pinouts involve pin numbers as a link between

exchanges between the cascaded devices and an external interface. The controlling device is called the master
device.
SRAM
An acronym for static random access memory. A memory device where you can store and retrieve data at a high
rate of speed. The term static is used because, after a value is loaded into an SRAM cell, it remains unchanged
until it is explicitly altered or until power is removed from the device.
SROM
An acronym for supervisory read only memory. The SROM holds code that is used to boot the device, calibrate
circuitry, and perform Flash operations. The functions of the SROM may be accessed in normal user code,
operating from Flash.
