2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
The AT42QT1050 (QT1050) is a QTouchADC sensor driver. The device can sense from one to five keys, dependent
on mode.
The QT1050 includes all signal processing functions necessary to provide stable sensing under a wide variety of
changing conditions, and the outputs are fully debounced. Only a few external parts are required for operation and
no external Cs capacitors are required.
The QT1050 modulates its bursts in a spread-spectrum fashion in order to heavily suppress the effects of external
noise, and to suppress RF emissions. The QT1050 uses a QTouchADC method of acquisition. This provides greater
noise immunity and eliminates the need for external sampling capacitors, allowing touch sensing using a single pin.
2.2 Comms Modes
The QT1050 operates in comms mode where a host can communicate with the device via an I2C bus. This allows
the user to configure settings for Threshold, Adjacent Key Suppression (AKS), Detect Integrator, Low Power (LP)
Mode, Guard Channel, and Max Time On for keys.
2.3 Keys
The QT1050 can have a minimum of one key and a maximum of five keys. These can be constructed in different
shapes and sizes. See “Features” on page 1 for the recommended dimensions.
1 to 5 keys (or 1 to 4 keys plus Guard Channel)
Unused keys should be disabled by setting the Detect Integrator (DI) to zero (see Section 5.10 on page 21).
The status register can be read to determine the touch status of the corresponding key. It is recommended using the
open-drain CHANGE line to detect when a change of status has occurred.
2.4 Moisture Tolerance
The presence of water (condensation, sweat, spilt water, and so on) on a sensor can alter the signal values
measured and thereby affect the performance of any capacitive device. The moisture tolerance of QTouch devices
can be improved by designing the hardware and fine-tuning the firmware following the recommendations in the
application note Atmel AVR3002: Moisture Tolerant QTouch Design (www.atmel.com/Images/doc42017.pdf).
2.5 Acquisition/Low Power Mode (LP)
There are 255 different acquisition times possible. These are controlled via the LP mode byte (see Section 5.11 on
page 22) which can be written to via I2C-compatible communication.
LP mode controls the intervals between acquisition measurements. Longer intervals consume lower power but have
an increased response time. During calibration, touch and during the detect integrator (DI) period, the LP mode is
temporarily set to LP mode 1 for a faster response.
The QT1050 operation is based on a fixed cycle time of approximately 8 ms. The LP mode setting indicates how
many of these periods exist per measurement cycle. For example, If LP mode = 1, there is an acquisition every cycle
(8 ms). If LP mode = 3, there is an acquisition every 3 cycles (24 ms). If a high Pulse/Scale (see Section 5.9 on page
19) setting is selected then the acquisition time may exceed 8 ms.
LP settings above mode 32 (512 ms) result in slower thermal drift compensation and should be avoided in
applications where fast thermal transients occur.

AT42QT1050 [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET]
9707FX–AT42–01/14
2.6 Adjacent Key Suppression (AKS) Technology
The device includes the Atmel-patented Adjacent Key Suppression (AKS) technology, to allow the use of tightly
spaced keys on a keypad with no loss of selectability by the user.
There can be up to three AKS groups, implemented so that only one key in the group may be reported as being
touched at any one time. Once a key in a particular AKS group is in detect no other key in that group can go into
detect. Only when the key in detect goes out of detection can another key go into detect state.
The keys which are members of the AKS groups can be set (see Section 5.9 on page 19). Keys outside the group
may be in detect simultaneously.
Note: When multiple keys in an AKS group are touched then a key must be fully out of detect before the next key
will report touch. So effectively a break-before-make operation.
2.7 CHANGE Line
The CHANGE line is active low and signals when there is a change of state in the Detection or Input key status
bytes. It is cleared (allowed to float high) when the host reads the status bytes.
If the status bytes change back to their original state before the host has read the status bytes (for example, a touch
followed by a release), the CHANGE line will be held low. In this case, a read to any memory location will clear the
CHANGE line.
The CHANGE line is open-drain and should be connected via a 47 k resistor to Vdd. It is necessary for minimum
power operation as it ensures that the QT1050 can sleep for as long as possible. Communications wake up the
QT1050 from sleep causing a higher power consumption if the part is randomly polled.
Note: The CHANGE line is pulled low 100 ms after power-up or reset.
2.8 Types of Reset
2.8.1 External Reset
An external reset logic line can be used, if desired, fed into the RESET pin. This pin should be pulled up by a 100 k
resistor to Vdd.
2.8.2 Soft Reset
The host can cause a device reset by writing 0x80 to the RESET / Calibrate byte. This soft reset triggers the internal
watchdog timer on a 125 ms interval. After 125 ms the device resets and wakes again.
The device NACKs any attempts to communicate with it during the first 30 ms of its initialization period.
2.9 Calibration
Writing a non-zero value to low 7-bits of the RESET / Calibrate byte will force a recalibration at any time. This can be
useful to clear out a stuck key condition after a prolonged period of uninterrupted detection.
Note: A calibrate command clears all key status bits and the overflow bit (until it is checked on the next cycle).
2.10 Guard Channel
A guard channel to help prevent false detection is available. This is programmable for comms mode.
Guard channel keys should be more sensitive than the other keys (physically bigger). Because the guard channel
key is physically bigger it becomes more susceptible to noise so it has higher Oversampling (see Section 5.9 on
page 19) and a lower Threshold (see Section 5.8 on page 19) than the other keys.
A channel set as the guard channel (there can only be one) is prioritised when the filtering of keys going into detect
is taking place. So if a normal key is filtering into touch (touch present but DI has not been reached) and the key set
as the guard key begins filtering in, then the normal key filter is reset and the guard key filters in first.

2.11 Signal Processing
2.11.1 Detect Threshold
The device detects a touch when the signal has crossed a threshold level and remained there for a specified number
of counts (see Section 5.10 on page 21). This can be altered on a key-by-key basis using the key threshold I2C-
compatible commands.
The reference level has the ability to adjust itself slowly in accordance with the drift compensation mechanism.
The drift mechanism will drift toward touch at a rate of 160 ms × 18 = 2.88 seconds and away from touch at a rate of
160 ms × 6 = 0.96 seconds. The 160 ms is based on 20 × 8 ms cycles. If the cycle time exceeds 8 ms then the
overall times will be extended to match.
2.11.2 Detect Integrator
The device features a fast detection integrator counter (DI filter), which acts to filter out noise at the small expense of
a slower response time. The DI filter requires a programmable number of consecutive samples confirmed in
detection before the key is declared to be touched. The minimum number for the DI filter is 2. Settings of 1 for the DI
also defaults to 2. Setting a DI of 0 disables the corresponding key.
The signal value which can be read in RAM is a filtered signal value. Using the Fast In option (Bit 6 of address 60)
the chip can be made to enter fast mode (LPM = 1) when a raw signal reading is detected above threshold. This
would allow the chip to react quicker to a touch in cases where a high LPM setting is being used.
Note: If the circuit is in a noisy environment this could have the effect of causing the chip to enter fast mode more
often than is necessary.
The DI is also implemented when a touch is removed. There is also a Fast Out DI option. When bit 5 of Address 60
is set the key filters out with an integrator of 4.
2.11.3 Cx Limitations
The recommended range for key capacitance Cx is 1 pF 30 pF. Larger values of Cx will give reduced sensitivity.
2.11.4 Max On Duration
If an object or material obstructs the sense pad the signal may rise enough to create a detection, preventing further
operation. To prevent this, the sensor includes a timer which monitors detections. If a detection exceeds the timer
setting the sensor performs a key recalibration. This is known as the Max On duration feature and is set to
approximately 30s in standalone mode.
This feature can be changed by setting a value in the range 1 255 (160 ms 40,800 ms) in steps of 160 ms. A
setting of 0 disables the Max On Duration recalibration feature.
Note: If bit 4 of address 60 is clear then a recalibration of all keys occurs on Max On Duration, otherwise individual
key recalibration occurs.

AT42QT1050 [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET]
9707FX–AT42–01/14
2.11.5 Positive Recalibration
If a key signal jumps in the negative direction (with respect to its reference) by more than the Positive Recalibration
setting (25% of threshold or minimum 4 counts), then a recalibration of that key takes place.
2.11.6 Drift Hold Time
Drift Hold Time (DHT) is used to restrict drift on all keys while one or more keys are activated. DHT restricts the
drifting on all keys until approximately four seconds after all touches have been removed.
This feature is particularly useful in cases of high-density keypads where touching a key or hovering a finger over the
keypad would cause untouched keys to drift, and therefore create a sensitivity shift, and ultimately inhibit touch
detection.
2.11.7 Hysteresis
Hysteresis is fixed at 12.5% of the Detect Threshold. When a key enters a detect state once the DI count has been
reached, the NTHR value is changed by a small amount (12.5% of NTHR) in the direction away from touch. This is
done to alter hysteresis and so makes it less likely a key will dither in and out of detect. NTHR is restored once the
key drops out of detect.
Note: There is a minimum value for hysteresis of 2 so a threshold of 2 or less should never be selected.

3. Wiring and Parts
3.1 Rs Resistors
Series resistors Rs (Rs0 Rs4) are in line with the electrode connections and should be used to limit electrostatic
discharge (ESD) currents and to suppress radio frequency interference (RFI). Series resistors are recommended for
noise reduction. They should be approximately 4.7 k to 20 k each. Care should be taken in this case that the
sensor keys are fully charged. The Charge Share Delay time may need to be increased (see Section 5.15 on page
24). Each count increase will extend the charge pulse by approximately 2.5 µs.
For improved Conducted Immunity as increased Rs resistor is recommended. With an increased series resistor, the
RC time constant formed in combination with sensor capacitance will slow down the charge transfer settling process.
In order to obtain stable and repeatable results, it is important to ensure proper settling process. For an overview of
charge transfer pulses and method to observe good and bad charge pulses using an oscilloscope, refer to the
‘Charge transfer’ section in the Atmel Touch Sensor Design Guide. In order to achieve good charge pulses, the
firmware parameter to control the charge transfer time should be increased.
In the case of the QT1050 this is the Charge Share Delay byte. This setting increases the Charge Share time by
approx 2.5 µs for every count increase.
3.2 Conducted Immunity
Although most applications do not require a high level of immunity to conducted noise, certain industry sectors have
defined standards for EMC compliance. When using capacitive touch interfaces in such environments, it is important
to understand the implications of conducted noise and how to mitigate the effects through careful design.
Capacitive touch applications are generally not affected by common-mode noise until human interaction takes place.
This is because the power supply lines maintain a stable difference between Vdd and Vss and as no return path is
provided to the noise source reference (usually earth), the circuit functions normally.
For further information, refer to: Atmel AVR3000: QTouch Conducted Immunity Application Note.
3.3 LED Traces and Other Switching Signals
Digital switching signals near the sense lines induce transients into the acquired signals, deteriorating the signal-to-
noise (SNR) performance of the device. Such signals should be routed away from the sensing traces and electrodes,
or the design should be such that these lines are not switched during the course of signal acquisition (bursts).
LED terminals which are multiplexed or switched into a floating state, and which are within, or physically very near, a
key (even if on another nearby PCB) should be bypassed to either Vss or Vdd with at least a 10 nF capacitor. This is
to suppress capacitive coupling effects which can induce false signal shifts. The bypass capacitor does not need to
be next to the LED, in fact it can be quite distant. The bypass capacitor is noncritical and can be of any type.
LED terminals which are constantly connected to Vss or Vdd do not need further bypassing.
3.4 PCB Cleanliness
Modern no-clean flux is generally compatible with capacitive sensing circuits.
If a PCB is reworked in any way, clean it thoroughly to remove all traces of the flux residue around the capacitive
sensor components. Dry it thoroughly before any further testing is conducted.
CAUTION: If a PCB is reworked in any way, it is highly likely that the behavior of the no-clean flux will change.
This can mean that the flux changes from an inert material to one that can absorb moisture and dramatically
affect capacitive measurements due to additional leakage currents. If so, the circuit can become erratic and
exhibit poor environmental stability.
11
AT42QT1050 [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET]
9707FX–AT42–01/14
3.5 Power Supply
See Section 6.2 on page 25 for the power supply range. If the power supply fluctuates slowly with temperature, the
device tracks and compensates for these changes automatically with only minor changes in sensitivity. If the supply
voltage drifts or shifts quickly, the drift compensation mechanism is not able to keep up, causing sensitivity
anomalies or false detections.
The usual power supply considerations with QT parts apply to the device. The power should be clean and come
from a separate regulator if possible. However, this device is designed to minimize the effects of unstable power, and
except in extreme conditions should not require a separate Low Dropout (LDO) regulator.
It is assumed that a larger bypass capacitor (such as 1 µF) is somewhere else in the power circuit; for example, near
the regulator.
CAUTION: A regulator IC shared with other logic can result in erratic operation and is not advised.
A single ceramic 0.1 µF bypass capacitor, with short traces, should be placed very close to the power pins of
the IC. Failure to do so can result in device oscillation, high current consumption and erratic operation.

9707FX–AT42–01/14
4. I2C Communications
4.1 I2C Protocol
4.1.1 Protocol
The I2C protocol is based around access to an address table (see Table 5-1 on page 15) and supports multi-byte
reads and writes. The maximum clock rate is 400 kHz.
See Section A. on page 32 for an overview of I2C bus operation.
4.1.2 Signals
The I2C interface requires two signals to operate:
SDA - Serial Data
SCL - Serial Clock
A third line, CHANGE, is used to signal when the device has seen a change in the status byte:
CHANGE: Open-drain, active low when any capacitive key has changed state since the last I2C-compatible
read. After reading the two status bytes, this pin floats (high) again if it is pulled up with an external resistor. If
the status bytes change back to their original state before the host has read the status bytes (for example, a
touch followed by a release), the CHANGE line is held low. In this case, a read to any memory location clears
the CHANGE line.
4.2 I2C Addresses
There are two selectable I2C addresses of 0x41 and 0x46. Pulling the ADDR_SEL pin (D6) low on power up sets
I2C address of 0x41 while pulling this pin high on power up sets I2C address of 0x46.
4.3 Data Read/Write
4.3.1 Writing Data to the Device
The sequence of events required to write data to the device is:

13
AT42QT1050 [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET]
9707FX–AT42–01/14
1. The host initiates the transfer by sending the START condition.
2. The host follows this by sending the slave address of the device together with the WRITE bit.
3. The device sends an ACK.
4. The host then sends the memory address within the device to which it wishes to write.
5. The device sends an ACK if the write address is in the range 0x00 0x7F, otherwise it sends a NACK.
6. The host transmits one or more data bytes; each is acknowledged by the device (unless trying to write to an
invalid address).
7. If the host sends more than one data byte, they are written to consecutive memory addresses.
8. The device automatically increments the target memory address after writing each data byte.
9. After writing the last data byte, the host should send the STOP condition.
Note: the host should not try to write to addresses outside the range 0x20 to 0x3F because this is the limit of the
device internal memory addresses.
4.3.2 Reading Data From the Device
The sequence of events required to read data from the device is:
1. The host initiates the transfer by sending the START condition.
2. The host follows this by sending the slave address of the device together with the WRITE bit.
3. The device sends an ACK.
4. The host then sends the memory address within the device it wishes to read from.
5. The device sends an ACK if the address to be read from is less than 0x80, otherwise it sends a NACK.
6. The host must then send a STOP and a START condition followed by the slave address again but this time
accompanied by the READ bit.
Note: Alternatively, instead of step 6, a repeated START can be sent so the host does not need to relinquish
control of the bus.
7. The device returns an ACK, followed by a data byte.
8. The host must return either an ACK or NACK.
1. If the host returns an ACK, the device subsequently transmits the data byte from the next address. Each
time a data byte is transmitted, the device automatically increments the internal address. The device
continues to return data bytes until the host responds with a NACK.
2. If the host returns a NACK, it should then terminate the transfer by issuing the STOP condition. A
repeated START can also be used instead of STOP condition.
9. The device resets the internal address to the location indicated by the memory address sent to it previously.
Therefore, there is no need to send the memory address again when reading from the same location.
Note: Reading the 16-bit reference and signal values is not an atomic operation; reading the first byte of a 16-bit
value does not lock the other byte. As a result glitches in the reported value may be seen as values increase
from 255 to 256, or decrease from 256 to 255.
Use of a Repeated START to terminate a read-transfer is also supported.

4.4 SDA, SCL
The I2C-compatible bus transmits data and clock with SDA and SCL respectively. They are open-drain; that is, I2C-
compatible master and slave devices can only drive these lines low or leave them open. The termination resistors
pull the line up to Vdd if no I2C-compatible device is pulling it down.
The pull-up resistors commonly range from 1 k to 10 k and should be chosen so that the rise times on SDA and
SCL meet the I2C-compatible specifications (300 ns maximum).

5. Setups
5.1 Introduction
The device calibrates and processes signals using a number of algorithms specifically designed to provide for high
survivability in the face of adverse environmental challenges. User-defined Setups are employed to alter these
algorithms to suit each application. These Setups are loaded into the device over the I2C serial interfaces.
Note: Setups are volatile and will revert to defaults on power up or reset. I2C address pointer is initialized to
location 0.

5.8 Address 0x20 0x26: Negative Threshold (NTHR)
NTHR Keys 0 4: these 8-bit values set the threshold value for each key to register a detection.
Default: 20 counts
Note: Do not use a setting of 0 as this causes a key to go into detection when its signal is equal to its reference.
5.9 Addresses 0x27 0x2D: Pulse/Scale for Keys
PULSE/SCALE: The PULSE/SCALE settings are used to set up a proximity key. The proximity key is set up by
configuring a PULSE/SCALE setting for each key via an I2C bus.
These bits represent two numbers; the low nibble is SCALE, high nibble is PULSE.
Each acquisition cycle consists signal accumulation and signal averaging. PULSE determines the number of
measurements accumulated, SCALE the averaging factor.
The SCALE factor (averaging factor) for the accumulated signal is an exponent of 2.
PULSE is the number of measurements accumulated and is an exponent of 2.

For example:
Oversampling is used to enhance the resolution of the Analog-to-Digital-Converter (ADC). Oversampling the-
ory says that for each additional bit of resolution, n, the signal must be oversampled four times (or 22 × n.) If
two bits of addition resolution are required then the pulse setting would be 4 (42 =2
4). If 3-bits of additional
resolution are required the Pulse setting would be 6 (43=2
6). Here the result of each ADC pulse measure-
ment is taken and added to the last.
The oversampling theory also states that this accumulated result must be scaled back by a factor of 2n. This
will be the Scale value. The signal value will be scaled to 16-bits in cases where a sufficiently high enough
scale factor has not been set.
Table 5-10 shows some of the recommended oversampling settings.
Note: Other settings are possible but the Pulse value should never be more than six higher than the Scale setting
as the signal result is stored in a 16-bit variable.
Consideration should be taken on the overall effect on timing when setting Pulse values. A single pulse takes
approximately 90 µs to complete. As all keys are acquired sequentially a high-bit gain setting will add considerably to
the time taken to acquire all channels.

5.10 Address 0x2E 0x34: Detection Integrator (DI) / AKS
DETECTION INTEGRATOR: bits 2 to 7 of addresses 0x2E 0x34 allow the DI level to be set for each key. This 6-
bit value controls the number of consecutive measurements that must be confirmed as having passed the key
threshold before that key is registered as being in detect. The minimum value for the DI filter is 2. Settings of 1 for the
DI defaults to 2 because a minimum of two consecutive measurements must be confirmed. Setting a DI of 0 disables
the corresponding key.
Default: 4
AKS 0 4: these bits control which keys are included in an AKS group. There can be up to three groups, each
containing any number of keys (up to the maximum allowed for the mode).
Each key can have a value between 0 and 3, which assigns it to an AKS group of that number. A key may only go
into detect when no other key in its AKS group is already in detect. A value of 0 means the key is not in any AKS
group.
Default: 0x00

with DI of 4 (global setting for all keys).
MAX CAL: if this bit is clear then all keys recalibrate after a Max On Duration timeout, otherwise only the key with the
incorrect timing gets recalibrated.
GUARD CHANNEL: bits 0 3 are used to set a key as the guard channel (which gets priority filtering). Valid values
are 0 4, with any larger value disabling the guard key feature.

Appendix A. I2C Operation
A.1 Interface Bus
The device communicates with the host over an I2C bus. The following sections give an overview of the bus; more
detailed information is available from www.i2C-bus.org. Devices are connected to the I2C bus as shown in Figure A-
1. Both bus lines are connected to Vdd via pull-up resistors. The bus drivers of all I2C devices must be open-drain
type. This implements a wired AND function that allows any and all devices to drive the bus, one at a time. A low
level on the bus is generated when a device outputs a zero.
Figure A-1. I2C Interface Bus
A.2 Transferring Data Bits
Each data bit transferred on the bus is accompanied by a pulse on the clock line. The level of the data line must be
stable when the clock line is high; the only exception to this rule is for generating START and STOP conditions.

AT42QT1050 [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET]
9707FX–AT42–01/14
A.3 START and STOP Conditions
The host initiates and terminates a data transmission. The transmission is initiated when the host issues a START
condition on the bus, and is terminated when the host issues a STOP condition. Between the START and STOP
conditions, the bus is considered busy. As shown in Figure A-3, START and STOP conditions are signaled by
changing the level of the SDA line when the SCL line is high.
Figure A-3. START and STOP Conditions
A.4 Address Byte Format
All address bytes are 9 bits long, consisting of 7 address bits, one READ/WRITE control bit and an acknowledge bit.
If the READ/WRITE bit is set, a read operation is performed, otherwise a write operation is performed. When the
device recognizes that it is being addressed, it will acknowledge by pulling SDA low in the ninth SCL (ACK) cycle. An
address byte consisting of a slave address and a READ or a WRITE bit is called SLA+R or SLA+W, respectively.
The most significant bit of the address byte is transmitted first. The address sent by the host must be consistent with
that selected with the option jumpers.

AT42QT1050 [PRELIMINARY DATASHEET]

A.5 Data Byte Format
All data bytes are 9 bits long, consisting of 8 data bits and an acknowledge bit. During a data transfer, the host
generates the clock and the START and STOP conditions, while the receiver is responsible for acknowledging the
reception. An acknowledge (ACK) is signaled by the receiver pulling the SDA line low during the ninth SCL cycle. If
the receiver leaves the SDA line high, a NACK is signaled.
Figure A-5. Data Byte Format
A.6 Combining Address and Data Bytes into a Transmission
A transmission consists of a START condition, an SLA+R/W, one or more data bytes and a STOP condition. The
wired ANDing of the SCL line is used to implement handshaking between the host and the device. The device
extends the SCL low period by pulling the SCL line low whenever it needs extra time for processing between the
data transmissions.
Note: Each write or read cycle must end with a stop condition. The device may not respond correctly if a cycle is
terminated by a new start condition.
Figure A-6 shows a typical data transmission. Note that several data bytes can be transmitted between the
SLA+R/W and the STOP.
