A capacitive event is a dynamic increase of capacitance at the sensor input pin IN.
8.1 Output switching modes
The counter, following the sensor logic depicted in
CDN respectively. The counter is reset every time the pulse sequence changes from CUP
to CDN or vice versa. Pin OUT will only be activated when a sufficient number of
consecutive CUP or CDN pulses occur. Low level interference or slow changes in the
input capacitance do not cause the output to switch.
Various measures, such as asymmetrical charge and discharge steps, are taken to
ensure that the output switches off correctly. A special start-up circuit ensures that the
device reaches equilibrium quickly when the supply is attached.
Pin OUT is an open-drain output capable of pulling an external load R
