LC717A10PJ
Overview
The LC717A10PJ is a high-performance and low-cost capacitance-digital-converter LSI for electrostatic
capacitive touch sensor, especially focused on usability.
It has 16 channels capacitance-sensor input. This makes it ideal for use in the products that need many switches.
Since the calibration function and the judgment of ON/OFF are automatically performed in LSI internal, it can
make development time more short. A detection result (ON/OFF) for each input can be read out by the serial
interface (I2C compatible bus or SPI).
Also, measurement value of each input can be read out as 8-bit digital data. Moreover, gain and other parameters
can be adjusted using serial interface.

Input capacitance resolution: Can detect capacitance changes in the femto Farad order
Measurement interval (16 differential inputs): 30ms (Typ) (at initial configuration),
6ms (Typ) (at minimum interval configuration)
External components for measurement: Not required
Interface: I2C * compatible bus or SPI selectable.
Current consumption: 570A (Typ) (VDD = 2.8V), 1.3mA (Typ) (VDD = 5.5V)
Supply voltage: 2.6V to 5.5V

Dynamic offset calibration function to correct Cin offset drift
When measurement data at a certain channel are consecutively within the execution range of dynamic offset
calibration (4 to touch threshold, or -128 to -4) for the period of time corresponding to a value, dynamic offset
calibration is performed and the reference value at the channel is gradually corrected to 0.
The figure below shows the operation when the measured value began to drift in the positive
direction from the central value gradually.
The examples of setting to 8 times the dynamic offset calibration carried count.

Power-on Reset (POR)
When power is turned on, power-on reset is enabled inside the LSI and its state is released after a certain power-on reset
time, tPOR. Power-on Reset operation condition; Power supply rise rate tVDD must be at least 1V/ms.
Since INTOUT pin changes from “High” to “Low” at the same time as the released of power-on reset, it is possible to
verify the timing of release of power-on reset externally.
During power-on reset, Cin, Cref and CrefAdd are unknown.

LC717A10PJ is capacitance-digital-converter LSI capable of detecting changes in capacitance in the order of femto
Farads. It consists of an oscillation circuit that generates the system clock, a power-on reset circuit that resets the system
when the power is turned on, a multiplexer that selects the input channels, a two-stage amplifier that detects the changes in
the capacitance and outputs analog-amplitude values, a A/D converter that converts the analog-amplitude values into
digital data, an I2C compatible bus or a SPI that enables serial communication with external devices and a control logic
that controls the entire chip.

Details of Pin Functions
Cin0 to Cin15
These are the capacitance-sensor-input pins. These pins are used by connecting them to the touch switch pattern.
Cin and the Cdrv wire patterns should be close to each other. By doing so, Cdrv and Cin patterns are capacitively
coupled. Therefore, LSI can detect capacitance change near each pattern as 8bit digital data.
However, if the shape of each pattern or the capacitively coupled value of Cdrv is not appropriate, it may not be able to
detect the capacitance change correctly.
In this LSI, there is a two-stage amplifier that detects the changes in the capacitance and outputs analog-amplitude
values. Cin0 to Cin15 are connected to the inverting input of the 1st amplifier.
During measurement process, channels other than the one being measured are all in “Low” condition.
Leave the unused terminals open.
Cref, CrefAdd
These are the reference-capacitance-input pins. These are used by connecting to the wire pattern like Cin pins or are
used by connecting any capacitance between this pin and Cdrv pin.
In this LSI, there is a two-stage amplifier that detects the changes in the capacitance and outputs analog-amplitude
values. Cref is connected to the non-inverting input of the 1st amplifier.
Due to the parasitic capacitance generated in the wire connections of Cin pins and their patterns, as well as the one
generated between the wire patterns of Cin and Cdrv pins, Cref may not detect capacitance change of each Cin pin
accurately. In this case, connect an appropriate capacitance between Cref and Cdrv to detect capacitance change
accurately.
However, if the difference between the parasitic capacitance of each Cin pin is extremely large, it may not detect
capacitance change of each Cin pin correctly.
CrefAdd can be used as additional terminal for Cref. Leave the CrefAdd open if not in used.
Cdrv
It is the output pin for capacitance sensors drive. It outputs the pulse voltage which is needed to detect capacitance at
Cin0 to Cin15.
Cdrv and Cin wire patterns should be close to each other so that they are capacitively coupled.
INTOUT
It is the interrupt-output pin.
It is used by connecting to a main microcomputer if necessary, and use as interrupt signal. (High Active)
Leave the terminal open if not in used.
SCL/SCK
Clock input (I2C) / Clock input (SPI)
It is the clock input pin of the I2C compatible bus or the SPI depending on the mode of operation.
LC717A10PJ
No.A2214-13/14
nCS
Interface selection / Chip-select-inverting input (SPI)
Selection of I2C compatible bus mode or SPI mode is through this terminal. After initialization, the LSI is automatically
in I2C compatible bus mode. To continually use I2C compatible bus mode, fix nCS pin to “High”. To switch to SPI mode
after LSI initialization, change the nCS input “High” “Low”. The nCS pin is used as the chip-select-inverting input
pin of SPI, and SPI mode is kept until LSI is again initialized.
nRST
It is the external-reset-signal-inverting-input pin. When nRST pin is “Low”, LSI is in reset state.
Each pin (Cin0 to 15, Cref, CrefAdd) is “Hi-Z” during reset state.
SDA/SI
Data input and output (I2C) / Data input (SPI)
It is the data input and output pin of the I2C compatible bus or the data input pin of the SPI depending on the mode of
operation.
SA0/SO
Slave address selection (I2C) / Data output (SPI)
It is the slave address selection pin of the I2C compatible bus or the data output pin of the SPI depending on the mode of
operation.
SA1
Slave address selection (I2C)
It is the slave address selection pin of the I2C compatible bus.
When SPI mode, connect to the SA1 pin to GND.
