CSDAUTO Typical Application
Functional Description
The capacitive sensor consists of physical, electrical, and software components:
„ Physical
–
The physical sensor itself, typically a conductive pattern constructed on a PCB connected to the
PSoC with an insulating cover, a flexible membrane, or a transparent overlay over a display.
„ Electrical
–
A method to convert the sensor capacitance to digital format. The conversion system consists
of a sensing switched capacitor, a sigma-delta modulator, and a counter-based digital filter to
convert the modulator output bit stream to a readable digital format.
„ Software
–
Detection and compensation software algorithms convert the count value into a sensor detection decision.
–
In the case of consecutive, dependent sensors (sliders and touchpads, for example) APIs are
provided to interpolate a position with greater resolution than the physical pitch of the sensors.
For example, you can create a volume slider with 10 sensors and use the provided firmware to
expand the number of volume levels to 100. Alternatively, using the same APIs, you can use two
capacitive sensors that taper into each other and determine the position of a conductive object
(such as a finger) between them.
–
High level decision logic provides compensation for environmental factors, such as temperature,
humidity, and power supply voltage change. A separate shield electrode can be used for
shielding the sensor array to reduce stray capacitance, providing more reliable operation in the
presence of a water film or droplets.
–
High level software functions accommodate slider diplexing so that a single I/O pin can be
routed to two physical sensors to reduce by half the number of IO consumed for a given number
of slider elements.

Capacitance Sensing Operation
CY8C20x66 family of devices have an Analog MUX Bus. It allows connection of the CapSense Circuitry to
any PSoC pin. The CSDAUTO user module connects the active sensor to the analog Mux bus so the
always-connected CapSense circuitry can measure the capacitance of the sensor and translate that
capacitance into a digital code. The firmware performs sensor scanning in series by setting corresponding
bits in the MUX_CRx registers.

Sliders
Note
Sliders and proximity sensors are not fully supported in this beta version.
Sliders are used for controls requiring gradual adjustments. Examples include a lighting controls (dimmer),
volume controls, graphic equalizers, and speed controls. The sensors that make up a slider are adjacent
to one another. Actuation of one sensor results in partial actuation of physically adjacent sensors. The
actual position in the slider is found by computing the centroid location of the set of activated sensors.
Sliders are accommodated in the CSDAUTO Wizard, by establishing groups in which each group of
sliders has a specific order. The practical lower limit number for sensors slider is five, the upper limit is
simply the number of sensor positions available on the PSoC device selected.

Radial Sliders
Figure 4.
Finger touches Radial Slider
For the CSDAUTO user module, two slider types are available: linear and radial. Radial sliders are similar
to linear ones. While linear sliders have a beginning and an end, radial sliders do not. When a touch
happens, the centroid calculation algorithm takes into account sensor counts of the switches to the right
and left of the current switch. Radial sliders are not diplexed.
The CSDAUTO user module has two API functions that support radial sliders. The first function
CSDAUTO_wGetRadiaPos() returns centroid location and the second CSDAUTO_wGetRadialInc()
returns finger shift in resolution units. When the finger moves in a clockwise direction it is a positive offset.
The reference point(0) is located in the middle of the first sensor. The Resolution for both linear and radial
sliders is limited and is 3000.

Autotuning CapSense Sigma-Delta
Diplexing
When Diplexing is used, each PSoC sensor connection in a slider is mapped to two physical locations in
the array of slider sensors. The first (or numerically lower) half of the physical locations is mapped
sequentially to the base assigned sensors, with the port pin assigned by the designer using the CSDAUTO
Wizard. The second (or upper) half of the physical sensor locations is automatically mapped by an
algorithm as shown in the following figure.
Figure 5.
Indexing of Diplexed Slider Array by CSDAUTO
The close proximity of strong signals in one half of the slider results in the same levels aliased into the
upper half, but the results are scattered. The sensing algorithms search for strong adjacent sets of signals
to declare the resolved slider position. The order is established so that adjacent sensor actuation in one
half does not result in adjacent sensor actuation in the other half.
Ensure that the mapping of sensors to pins on the printed circuit board matches the Index by 3 pattern
used by the user module. The capacitance of sensor pairs in a diplexed slider should be reasonably well
matched (within 10 pF).
The diplex sensor index table is automatically generated by the CSDAUTO Wizard when you select
diplexing. This table illustrates the diplexing sequences for different slider segments count:

Interpolation and Scaling
In applications for sliding sensors and touchpads it is often necessary to determine finger (or other
capacitive object) position to more resolution than the native pitch of the individual sensors. The contact
area of a finger on a sliding sensor or a touchpad is often larger than any single sensor.
To calculate the interpolated position using a centroid, the array is first scanned to verify that a given
sensor location is valid. The requirement is for some number of adjacent sensor signals to be above a
noise threshold. When the strongest signal is found, this signal and those contiguous signals larger than
the noise threshold are used to compute a centroid. As few as two and as many as (typically) eight
sensors are used to calculate the centroid in the form of:
Equation 1
The calculated value is typically fractional. To report the centroid to a specific resolution, for example a
range of 0 to 100 for 12 sensors, the centroid value is multiplied by a calculated scalar. It is more efficient
to combine the interpolation and scaling operations into a single calculation and report this result directly
in the desired scale. This is handled in the high-level APIs.
Slider sensor count and resolution are set in the CSDAUTO Wizard. A scaling value is calculated by the
wizard and stored as fractional values.

The resolution is found by using this equation:
Resolution = (Number of Sensors – 1) × Multiplier
The centroid is held in a 24-bit unsigned integer and its resolution is a function of the number of sensors
and the multiplier.
External Component Selection Guidelines
CSDAUTO can use internal or external modulation capacitor, Cmod, connected from Vss ground to either
P0[1], or P0[3] port pins. The pins are selected by the Pin Selection Wizard setting. The selected pin
should not be used for any other purposes.
Unless CSDAUTO can work with internal capacitor the external capacitor is recommended. The
recommended value for the external modulation capacitor is 2.2 nF. The optimal capacitance can be
selected by experiment to get maximum SNR. A value of 2.2 nF gives good results in the most cases. A
ceramic capacitor should be used. The temperature capacitance coefficient is not important.
Shield Electrode
Some applications require reliable operation in the presence of water films or droplets. White goods,
automotive applications, various industrial applications, and others need capacitive sensors that do not
provide false triggering because of water, ice, and humidity changes. In this case a separate shielding
electrode can be used. This electrode is located behind or outside the sensing electrode. When water
films are located on the insulation overlay surface, the coupling between the shielding and sensing
electrodes is increased. The shielding electrode allows you to reduce the influence of parasitic
capacitance, which gives you more dynamic range for processing sense capacitance changes.
In some applications it is useful to select the shielding electrode signal and its placement relative to the
sensing electrode such that increasing the coupling between these electrodes causes the opposite of the
touch change of the sensing electrode capacitance measurement. This simplifies the high-level software
API work. The CSDAUTO User Module supports separate output for the shielding electrode.

Figure 6.
Possible Shield Electrode PCB Layout
The previous figure illustrates one possible layout configuration for the button’s shield electrode. In this
example, the button is covered by a shielding electrode plane. As an alternative, the shielding electrode
can be located on the opposite PCB layer, including the plane under the button. A hatch pattern is
recommended in this case, with a fill ratio of about 30 to 40%. No additional ground plane is required in
this case.
When water drops are located between the shielding and sensing electrodes, the Cpar is increased and
modulator current can be reduced. In practical tests, the modulator reference voltage can be increased by
the API so that the raw count increase from water drops should be close to zero or be slightly negative.
You can achieve this by selecting the appropriate modulator reference.
CSDAUTO uses the same signal used for the precharge clock to drive the shielding electrode.
The shield electrode can be connected to dedicated PSoC pins (P0[7] or P1[2]). The drive mode for
selected pin should be set to Strong. A slew limiting resistor can be connected between the PSoC device
and the shielding electrode to reduced emitted EMI.

Placement
The blocks for the user module are automatically placed when the user module is instantiated, alternate
placements are not available. The CSDAUTO User Module consumes the CapSense block and one Timer
(Timer1).
User modules that require specific pin resources, including the LCD and I2CHW, must be placed before
starting the CSDAUTO Wizard to establish pin connections for the CSDAUTO User Module.
Avoid P1[0] and P1[1] when placing capacitive sensor connections. These pins are used for programming
the part and may have excess routing capacitance affecting sensor sensitivity and noise.

Wizard Pin Legend
White – The pin can not be used as a CapSense input.
Gray – The pin is locked. There are two possible causes for this. The first possibility is that
another user module such as the LCD or I2C has claimed the pin. The second possibility is
that the name of the pin has been changed from its default.To return the pin name to its
default, in the Pinout view expand the pin, from the Select menu, select Default. The pin is
now available for assignment in the wizard.
Orange – The pin is available for assignment.
Green – The pin has been assigned as a CapSense input.
3. Type the number of independent buttons, sliders, and radial sliders. The total number of sensors (buttons plus slider elements) is limited to the number of pins avail-able. After entering the data, press the
[Enter] key to update the display with the new value. X-Y touchpads require two sliders.
4. Select Sensor Settings to set the settings for sliders and radial sliders. To alter settings, click one of
your sliders to activate it. Type the number of sensor elements in each slider. The practical minimum
number of sensors in a slider sensor is five, the maximum is limited by pin count. After entering the
data, press the [Enter] key to update the display. Select modulator capacitor (Cmod) pin. Choose
from the available pins P0[1], P0[3]. If the internal capacitor is used select None. You usually
get better SNR with an external 2.2 nF capacitor.

5. Type the output resolution. The minimum value is five. The maximum value is (# of pins used for sensors – 1) × 216 – 1 or (2 x pins used for sensors – 1) × 216 – 1 for diplexed sliders. The software
attempts to interpolate the touch results to the specified resolution using the relative strength of adjacent segments. The software reports touch results on the slider between zero and the resolution – 1.
6. Select Diplex, if desired. This maps the number of pins selected for sensors to twice as many sensor
locations on the board. Only the first half of the diplex sensors is shown; the second half is automatically mapped as outlined in the previous section on Diplexing. See the Diplexing section to find Diplexing tables for pin connections.
7. Assign switches or sensors to pins by dragging the switch or sensor onto the pin in the Pin Assignment
View. You can choose to drag switches or sensors onto pins in the Chip Pin Assignment View or the
Table Pin Assignment View. The port pin is green after selection and is no longer available. Change
sensor assignments by dragging the port pin back to the uncommitted table. Make sure to avoid
selecting pins already committed to other user modules.

8. Repeat for the remainder of independent sensors. Mapping of individual slider sensors onto physical
port pins is the same as for individual sensors. Click OK to accept data and return to PSoC Designer.
Sensor placement is now complete. Right-click in the Device Editor window and select Refresh to update
the pin connections.

Set user module parameters and generate the application. You can adapt a sample project now, if you
wish.
If you want change pin assignment, place your cursor on the assigned pin, click the pin, and drag and drop
it outside the switches box. The pin is unassigned and you can then reassign it.
After completing the Wizard, click Generate Application. Based on your entries for sensor count, pin
assignment, diplexing, and resolution, a set of tables is generated. The tables are located in
CSDAUTO_Table.asm
Sensor Table
The Sensor Table consists of a 2-byte entry for each sensor. The first byte is the port number and the
second byte is the bit mask for the bit (not the bit number). The table includes all independent sensors,
then each sensor in order. An example for a table with six sensors is:

are in that group. The third byte signifies whether the slider is diplexed or not (4 is diplexed, 0 is not
diplexed). The fourth, fifth, and sixth bytes are the fixed point multiplier that the slider's calculated centroid
is multiplied by to achieve the resolution desired in the CSDAUTO wizard.

Parameters and Resources
Sensors Autoreset
This parameter determines whether the baseline is updated at all times or only when the signal difference is below the Noise Threshold. When set to Enabled the baseline is updated constantly. This
setting limits the maximum time duration of the sensor (typical values are 5 – 10s), 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.
Document Number: 001-56927 Rev. *C

Autotuning CapSense Sigma-Delta
When the parameter is set to Disabled the baseline is updated only when raw count and baseline
difference is below the Noise Threshold parameter. You should leave this parameter Disabled unless
you have problems with sensors permanently turning on when the raw count suddenly rises without
anything touching the sensor.
The following figure illustrates this parameter’s influence on the baseline update.
Figure 7.
The Sensor Autoreset Parameter
Debounce
The Debounce parameter adds a debounce counter to the sensor active transition. For the sensor to
transition from inactive to active, the difference count value must stay above the finger threshold plus
hysteresis for the number of samples specified. The debounce counter is incremented by the bIsSensorActive or bIsAnySensorActive API functions.
Possible values are 1 to 255. A setting of 1 provides no debouncing.
ShieldElectrodeOut
The shielding electrode signal source can be routed to P0[7] or P1[2].

Application Programming Interface
The Application Programming Interface (API) functions are provided as part of the user module to allow
you to deal with the module at a higher level. This section specifies the interface to each function together
with related constants provided by the include files.
Each time a user module is placed, it is assigned an instance name. By default, PSoC Designer assigns
the CSDAUTO_1 to the first instance of this user module in a given project. It can be changed to any
unique value that follows the syntactic rules for identifiers. The assigned instance name becomes the
prefix of every global function name, variable and constant symbol. In the following descriptions the
instance name has been shortened to CSDAUTO for simplicity.
Note ** In this, as in all user module APIs, the values of the A and X register may be altered by calling an
API function. It is the responsibility of the calling function to preserve the values of A and X before the call
if those values are required after the call. This "registers are volatile" policy was selected for efficiency
reasons and has been in force since version 1.0 of PSoC Designer. The C compiler automatically takes
care of this requirement. Assembly language programmers must also ensure their code observes the
policy. Though some user module API function may leave A and X unchanged, there is no guarantee they
may do so in the future.
Entry Points are supplied to initialize the CSDAUTO, start it sampling, and stop the CSDAUTO. In all
cases the instance name of the module replaces the CSDAUTO prefix shown in the following entry points.
Failure to use the correct instance name is a common cause of syntax errors.
API functions use different global arrays. You should not alter these arrays manually. You can inspect
these values for debugging purposes, however. For example, you can use a charting tool to display the
contents of the arrays. There several global arrays:
„
„
„
„
CSDAUTO_waSnsBaseline[]
CSDAUTO_waSnsResult[]
CSDAUTO_waSnsDiff[]
CSDAUTO_baSnsOnMask[]
CSDAUTO_waSnsBaseline[] – This is an integer array that contains the baseline data of each sensor.
The array size is equal to the sensor count. The CSDAUTO_waSnsBaseline[] array is updated by these
functions:
„ CSDAUTO_UpdateAllBaselines();
„ CSDAUTO_UpdateSensorBaseline();
„ CSDAUTO_InitializeBaselines().
CSDAUTO_waSnsResult[] – This is an integer array that contains the raw data of each sensor. The array
size is equal to the sensor count. The CSDAUTO_waSnsResult[] data is updated by these functions:
„ CSDAUTO_ScanSensor();
„ CSDAUTO_ScanAllSensors().
CSDAUTO_waSnsDiff [] – This is an integer array that contains the difference between the raw data and
the baseline data of each sensor. The array size is equal to the sensor count.
CSDAUTO_baSnsOnMask[] – This is a byte array that holds the sensor on or off state (for buttons or
sliders). CSDAUTO_baSnsOnMask[0] contains the masked bits for sensors 0 through 7 (sensor 0 is bit 0,
sensor 1 is bit 1). CSDAUTO_baSnsOnMask[1] contains the masked bits for sensors 8 through 15 (if they
are needed), and so on. This byte array contains as many elements as are necessary to contain all the
placed sensors. The value of a bit is 1 if the button is on and 0 if the button is off. The

CSDAUTO_UpdateSensorBaseline
Description:
The historical count value, calculated independently for each sensor, is called the sensor's baseline.
This baseline is updated using the Bucket Method.
The Bucket Method uses the following algorithm.
1. Each time CSDAUTO_UpdateSensorBaseline() is called, a difference count is calculated by subtracting the previous baseline from the raw count value. This difference is stored in the
CSDAUTO_waSnsDiff[] array and is provided to you.
2. If Sensors Autoreset is disabled, each time CSDAUTO_UpdateSensorBaseline() is called the difference count is compared to the noise threshold. If the difference is below the noise threshold, it is
accumu-lated into a virtual bucket. If the difference is above the noise threshold, the bucket is not
updated. If Sensors Autoreset is enabled, the difference is accumulated into a virtual bucket regardless of the noise threshold parameter.
3. Once the accumulated difference counts in the virtual bucket has reached the BaselineUpdateTh-reshold, the baseline is incremented by one and the bucket is reset to 0.
4. If the difference count is below the noise threshold, the value held in the waSnsDiff[] array is reset to 0.
Therefore, this array does not contain elements with values greater than 0 but below the NoiseThreshold.

taken into account. The Hysteresis value is added or subtracted from the finger threshold based on
whether the sensor is currently on. If it is active, the threshold is lowered. If it is inactive, the threshold
is raised. This function also updates the sensor's bit in the CSDAUTO_baSnsOnMask[] array.

CSDAUTO_wGetCentroidPos
Description:
Checks a difference array for a centroid. If one exists, the offset and length are stored in temporary
variables and the centroid position is calculated to the resolution specified in the CSDAUTO Wizard.
This function is available only if slider is defined by the CSDAUTO Wizard.
C Prototype:
WORD
CSDAUTO_wGetCentroidPos(BYTE bSnsGroup)
Assembly:
mov A, bSnsGroup
lcall CSDAUTO_wGetCentroidPos
Parameters:
bSnsGroup A => Group Number
This parameter is a reference to a specific group of sensors used as a slider. Group 0 is for buttons.
Sliders are contained in group 1 and higher.
Return Value:
Position value of the slider, LSB in A and MSB in X.
Side Effects:
This routine modifies the difference counts by subtracting the noise threshold value. The routine
should be called only once after each scan to avoid getting negative difference values. If your application monitors difference count signals, call this routine after difference count data transmission.
If any slider sensor is active, the function returns values from zero to the Resolution value set in the
CSDAUTO Wizard. If no sensors are active, the function returns –1 (FFFFh). If an error occurs during
execu-tion of the centroid/diplexing algorithm, the function returns –1 (FFFFh). You can use the
CSDAUTO_blsSensorActive() routine to determine which slider segments are touched, if required.
Note: If noise counts on the slider segments are greater than the noise threshold, this subroutine may
generate a false centroid result. The noise threshold should be set carefully (high enough above the
noise level) so that noise does not generate a false centroid.
CSDAUTO_wGetRadialPos
Description:
Checks a difference array for a centroid. If one exists, the centroid position is calculated to the resolution specified in the CSDAUTO Wizard. This function is available only for radial slider that is defined
by the CSDAUTO Wizard.

Autotuning CapSense Sigma-Delta
Parameters:
bSnsGroup A => Group Number
This parameter is a number of radial slider you are working with. You can get its number through
CSDAUTO user module wizard on the left hand of radial slider representation (for example, s2, the
radial slider number is 2).
Return Value:
Position value of the radial slider, LSB in A and MSB in X.
Side Effects:
The routine should be called only once after each scan to avoid getting negative difference values and
baseline update. If your application monitors difference count signals, call this routine after difference
count data transmission.
If any slider sensor is active, the function returns values from zero to the Resolution value set in the
CSD Wizard. If no sensors are active, the function returns -1 (FFFFh).
Note If noise counts on the slider segments are greater than the noise threshold, this subroutine may
generate a false centroid result. The noise threshold should be set carefully (high enough above the
noise level) so that noise does not generate a false centroid.
CSDAUTO_wGetRadialInc
Description:
Returns actual finger shift, the difference between current and previous finger positions. This function
works in pair with CSDAUTO_wGetRadialPos() and takes data generated by the latter (data is saved
in internal variables).
C Prototype:
WORD
CSDAUTO_wGetRadialInc(BYTE bSnsGroup)
Assembly:
mov A, bSnsGroup
lcall CSDAUTO_wGetRadialInc
Parameters:
bSnsGroup A => Group Number
This parameter is a number of radial slider you are working with. You can get its number through
CSDAUTO user module wizard on the left hand of radial slider representation (for example, s2, the
radial slider number is 2).
Return Value:
Finger shift value, positive if clockwise and negative if anti-clockwise, LSB in A and MSB in X.
Finger shift value is the difference between current and previous finger positions. If there was no touch
during previous scan (the last but one time CSDAUTO_wGetRadialPos() returned -1 (FFFFh)) or
there is no touch at the moment (this time CSDAUTO_wGetRadialPos() returned -1 (FFFFh))
Document Number: 001-56927 Rev. *C

Interaction of CSDAUTO Parameters
The following figures illustrate the baseline update and decision logic operation and can be useful for
better understanding how to set user module parameters for optimum performance. The first figure
illustrates system operation when the Sensors Autoreset parameter is set to Disabled. The second
illustrates the Sensors Autoreset parameter Enabled. The Finger Threshold, Noise Threshold, Hysteresis,
and Negative Noise Threshold are shown together with Difference signal (Raw Count – Baseline). Data
was collected during some artificial tests that demonstrate system operation at both slow and rapid

rawcount changes.The slow changes can be caused by temperature or humidity variations and the rapid
changes can be triggered by a sensor touch, an ESD event, or the influence of a strong RF field.
Figure 8.
Example of Raw Counts, Baseline, Difference Signals Change With SensorsAutoreset Set to Disabled
At t0 the raw counts are close to the baseline level and start to drop slowly because of humidity or
temperature changes. Because the raw count change between two successive conversions does not
exceed the NegativeNoiseThreshold parameter (by absolute value), the baseline is updated by tracking
the Raw Count minimum value, holding the lower value of raw count signal.
At t1 the raw count drops sharply and the negative difference exceeds the NegativeNoiseThreshold. This
situation can happen if the device is powered on when a finger is on the sensor and then the finger is
removed after a period of time. At this time the baseline update mechanism is frozen and an internal
timeout counter is activated. The baseline is reset when the difference signal is below the
NegativeNoiseThreshold for LowBaselineReset samples. This happens at t2.
The second large negative difference signal spike happens at t3, this spike may have been triggered by an
ESD event for example. Because the spike duration in the sample count is less than the
LowBaselineReset parameter, the baseline is kept on hold and the spike is filtered. This prevents a false
baseline reset and the resulting false touch detection.
The sensor is touched at t4. When the difference signal exceeds the FingerThreshold + Hysteresis value,
the internal debounce counter is activated. If the signal exceeds this value for more than Debounce
samples, the sensor state is set to on. This happens at t5. The sensor state reverts back to the off state
immediately when the difference signal drops below the FingerThreshold – Hysteresis level at t7. The
Document Number: 001-56927 Rev. *C
Page 33 of 35
Autotuning CapSense Sigma-Delta
short positive spike at t9 is filtered by the debounce counter because the spike duration in sample units
does not exceed the Debounce value.
The raw count drifts up slowly between t7 and t10. The baseline is updated using the bucket algorithm
when the difference signal is below the NoiseThreshold (SensorsAutoreset is set to Disabled), the
difference signal is proportional to the drift rate. It is possible to control the baseline update speed using
the BaselineUpdate Threshold parameter. Lower parameter values provide faster baseline update
speeds.
Figure 9.
Example of Raw Counts, Baseline, Difference Signals Change With SensorsAutoreset Set to Enabled
The system operation in the previous figure is similar to the operation in the previous case, except for the
following differences:
„ The touch duration is decreased because of the active baseline update algorithm while the sensor is
touched, t6.
„ After the finger is removed, the baseline is reset after LowBaselineReset samples (t8), which blocks
touch detection for a short time. This serves as an additional debounce mechanism.
