8.1
The MPR083 is self-calibrating. This is done both at initial start-up of the device and during run time.
8.2
Initial calibration of the MPR083 occurs every time the device resets. The first key detection cycle is used as a baseline
capacitance value for all remaining calculations. Thus, a touch is detected by taking the difference between this baseline value
and the current capacitance on the electrode.
8.3
The MPR083 has an auto-calibration feature. This is enabled through the Rotary Configuration Register
the ACE bit high. Auto calibration is done by two mechanisms. The basic auto-calibration will recalculate the baseline value after
6 sample periods. Thus the auto calibrate period can be calculate by multiplying the master clock period (in milliseconds) and the
touch acquisition sample period with a factor of 64.
If a touch is currently being detected the auto-calibration will not engage and calibration will be ignored. The device can also be
calibrated when a key is being touched, this is controlled by stuck key detection.
8.4
The Stuck Key Detection system allows the application to specify the maximum amount of time a touch should be detected before
it is calibrated into the baseline and the touch is ignored. This is controlled by setting the Stuck Key Timeout multiplication factor
(SKT). The timeout period can be calculated by multiplying the SKT, master clock period (in ms) and touch acquisition sample
period with a factor of 64.
When Stuck Key Detection is off a touched key will remain touched indefinitely and never be calibrated into the baseline value.
8.4.1 Stuck Key Timeout Register
The Stuck Key Timeout Register is used to determine the electrode scan period of the system. The I
Key Timeout Register is 0x09.
