Circuit 3 – Powering Down CapSense Express Device for Low Power Requirements [6] Output enable LDO Output VDD LED Master Or Host CapSense Express I2C Pull UPs SDA I2C BUS SCL Note 6. For low power requirements, if VDD is to be turned off, the concept mentioned in this section can be used. The requirement is that the VDDs of CapSense Express, I2C pull-ups, and LEDs should be from same source such that 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 of the master can cater to the power supply requirements of the circuit, the LDO can be avoided. Document Number: 001-54607 Rev. *G Page 6 of 38 CY8C201A0 I2C Interface The CapSense Express devices support the industry standard I2C protocol, which can be used for: ■ Configuring the device ■ Reading the status and data registers of the device ■ To control the device operation ■ Executing commands 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; the first 7 bit contains address and the last LSB indicates the data transfer direction. Zero in the LSB bit indicates the write transaction form master and one indicates read transfer by the master. The following table shows the example for different I2C addresses. Table 1. I2C Address Examples 7 Bit Slave Address D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0 8 Bit Slave Address 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0(W) 02 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1(R) 03 75 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0(W) 96 75 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 1(W) 97 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 till 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. It is recommended to use a fully I2C compliant master to communicate with CapSense Express device. Document Number: 001-54607 Rev. *G If an I2C master does not support clock stretching (a bit banged software I2C master), the master must wait for a specific amount of time (specified in Format for Register Write and Read on page 8) for each register write and read operation before the next bit is transmitted. Check the SCL status (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 incorrect. The following diagrams represent the ACK time delays shown in Format for Register Write and Read on page 8 for write and read. Page 7 of 38 CY8C201A0 Figure 6.

Document Number: 001-54607 Rev. *G Page 8 of 38 CY8C201A0 Operating Modes of I2C Commands Normal Mode The device wakes up on sleep interval and It scans the capacitive sensors before going back to sleep again. If any sensor is active then the device wakes up. The device can also wake up from sleep mode with a GPIO interrupt. The following sleep intervals are supported in CapSense Express. The sleep interval is configured through registers. 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 0x06–0x09, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x10–0x17, 0x50, 0x51, 0x57–0x60, 0x7E are given only read access. Write to these registers can be done only in setup mode. ■ 1.95 ms (512 Hz) ■ 15.6 ms (64 Hz) ■ 125 ms (8 Hz) Setup Mode ■ 1s (1 Hz) 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. Deep Sleep Mode Device Operation Modes CapSense Express devices are configured to operate in any of the following three modes to meet different power consumption requirements ■ Active Mode ■ Periodic Sleep Mode ■ Deep Sleep Mode Active Mode In the active mode, all the device blocks including the CapSense sub system are powered. Typical active current consumption of the device across the operating voltage range is 1.5 mA. Periodic Sleep Mode Sleep mode provides an intermediate power operation mode. It is enabled by configuring the corresponding device registers (0x7E, 0x7F). The device goes into sleep after there is no event for stay awake counter (Reg 0x80) number of sleep intervals. Document Number: 001-54607 Rev. *G Deep sleep mode provides the lowest power consumption because there is no operation running. All CapSense scanning is disabled during this mode. In this mode, the device is woken up only using an external GPIO interrupt. A sleep timer interrupt cannot wake up a device from deep sleep mode. This is treated as a continuous sleep mode without periodic wakeups. Refer to the application note CapSense Express Power and Sleep Considerations – AN44209 for details on different sleep modes. To get the lowest power during this mode the sleep timer frequency should be set to 1 Hz. Sleep Control Pin The devices require a dedicated sleep control pin to enable reliable I2C communication in case any sleep mode is enabled. This is achieved by pulling the sleep control pin Low to wake up the device and start I2C communication. The sleep control pin can be configured on any of the GPIO. Interrupt Pin to Master To inform the master of any button press, a GPIO can be configured as interrupt output and all CapSense buttons can be connected to this GPIO with OR logic operator. This can be configured using the software tool.

A debugger usually allows the developer to step through the firmware one step at a time, set break points, and analyze memory. dead band A period of time when neither of two or more signals are in their active state or in transition. digital blocks The 8-bit logic blocks that can act as a counter, timer, serial receiver, serial transmitter, CRC generator, pseudo-random number generator, or SPI. digital-to-analog (DAC) A device that changes a digital signal to an analog signal of corresponding magnitude. The analog-to-digital (ADC) converter performs the reverse operation. duty cycle The relationship of a clock period high time to its low time, expressed as a percent. emulator Duplicates (provides an emulation of) the functions of one system with a different system, so that the second system appears to behave like the first system. External Reset (XRES) An active high signal that is driven into the PSoC device. It causes all operation of the CPU and blocks to stop and return to a pre-defined state. Flash An electrically programmable and erasable, non-volatile technology that provides you the programmability and data storage of EPROMs, plus in-system erasability. Non-volatile means that the data is retained when power is OFF. Flash block The smallest amount of Flash ROM space that may be programmed at one time and the smallest amount of Flash space that may be protected. A Flash block holds 64 bytes. frequency The number of cycles or events per unit of time, for a periodic function. gain The ratio of output current, voltage, or power to input current, voltage, or power, respectively. Gain is usually expressed in dB. I2C A two-wire serial computer bus by Philips Semiconductors (now NXP Semiconductors). I2C is an Inter-Integrated Circuit. It is used to connect low-speed peripherals in an embedded system. The original system was created in the early 1980s as a battery control interface, but it was later used as a simple internal bus system for building control electronics. I2C uses only two bi-directional pins, clock and data, both running at +5 V and pulled high with resistors. The bus operates at 100 kbits/second in standard mode and 400 kbits/second in fast mode. ICE The in-circuit emulator that allows you to test the project in a hardware environment, while viewing the debugging device activity in a software environment (PSoC Designer). input/output (I/O) A device that introduces data into or extracts data from a system. Document Number: 001-54607 Rev. *G Page 33 of 38 CY8C201A0 Glossary (continued) interrupt A suspension of a process, such as the execution of a computer program, caused by an event external to that process, and performed in such a way that the process can be resumed. interrupt service routine (ISR) A block of code that normal code execution is diverted to when the M8C receives a hardware interrupt. Many interrupt sources may each exist with its own priority and individual ISR code block. Each ISR code block ends with the RETI instruction, returning the device to the point in the program where it left normal program execution. jitter 1. A misplacement of the timing of a transition from its ideal position. A typical form of corruption that occurs on serial data streams. 2. The abrupt and unwanted variations of one or more signal characteristics, such as the interval between successive pulses, the amplitude of successive cycles, or the frequency or phase of successive cycles. low-voltage detect (LVD) A circuit that senses VDD and provides an interrupt to the system when VDD falls lower than a selected threshold. M8C An 8-bit Harvard-architecture microprocessor. The microprocessor coordinates all activity inside a PSoC by interfacing to the Flash, SRAM, and register space. master device A device that controls the timing for data exchanges between two devices. Or when devices are cascaded in 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. mixed-signal The reference to a circuit containing both analog and digital techniques and components. modulator A device that imposes a signal on a carrier. noise 1. A disturbance that affects a signal and that may distort the information carried by the signal. 2. The random variations of one or more characteristics of any entity such as voltage, current, or data. oscillator A circuit that may be crystal controlled and is used to generate a clock frequency. parity A technique for testing transmitting data. Typically, a binary digit is added to the data to make the sum of all the 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 schematic and PCB design (both being computer generated files) and may also involve pin names. port A group of pins, usually eight. Power on reset (POR) A circuit that forces the PSoC device to reset when the voltage is lower than a pre-set level. This is a type of hardware reset.

Document Number: 001-54607 Rev. *G Page 34 of 38 CY8C201A0 Glossary (continued) PSoC Designer™ The software for Cypress’ Programmable System-on-Chip technology. pulse width An output in the form of duty cycle which varies as a function of the applied measurand modulator (PWM) RAM An acronym for random access memory. A data-storage device from which data can be read out and new data can be written in. register A storage device with a specific capacity, such as a bit or byte. reset A means of bringing a system back to a know state. See hardware reset and software reset. ROM An acronym for read only memory. A data-storage device from which data can be read out, but new data cannot be written in. serial 1. Pertaining to a process in which all events occur one after the other. 2. Pertaining to the sequential or consecutive occurrence of two or more related activities in a single device or channel. settling time The time it takes for an output signal or value to stabilize after the input has changed from one value to another. shift register A memory storage device that sequentially shifts a word either left or right to output a stream of serial data. slave device A device that allows another device to control the timing for data exchanges between two devices. Or when devices are cascaded in width, the slave device is the one that allows another device to control the timing of data 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. stop bit A signal following a character or block that prepares the receiving device to receive the next character or block. synchronous 1. A signal whose data is not acknowledged or acted upon until the next active edge of a clock signal. 2. A system whose operation is synchronized by a clock signal. tri-state A function whose output can adopt three states: 0, 1, and Z (high-impedance). The function does not drive any value in the Z state and, in many respects, may be considered to be disconnected from the rest of the circuit, allowing another output to drive the same net. UART A UART or universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter translates between parallel bits of data and serial bits. user modules Pre-build, pre-tested hardware/firmware peripheral functions that take care of managing and configuring the lower level Analog and Digital PSoC Blocks. User Modules also provide high level API (Application Programming Interface) for the peripheral function. user space The bank 0 space of the register map. The registers in this bank are more likely to be modified during normal program execution and not just during initialization. Registers in bank 1 are most likely to be modified only during the initialization phase of the program.
