Multiple capacitive (button) sensor with reduced pinout
Abstract:
A capacitive touch sensor and LED driver device achieves a reduction in pin count by multiplexing LED drive functionality and capacitive sense functionality on each input/output pin. A control circuit switches between LED drive mode and capacitive sense mode at a frequency of approximately 200 Hz, although other switching frequencies can be used. A bias driver functions as a current sink for LEDs in LED drive mode and can also be used to drive a bias voltage to the LEDs during capacitive sense mode to improve noise immunity.
