SX8647
Ultra Low Power, Capacitive Wheel
Touch Controller (8 sensors) with Enhanced LED Drivers
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SX 8647 is an ultra lo w power, full y integr ated 8-
channel solution for capacitive touch wheel
applicat ions. Unlike many capacitive touch solutions,
the SX8647 features dedicated capacitive sense
inputs (that requires no external components) in
addition to 8 gener al pur pos e I/O por ts (G PIO). Each
GPIO is typically configured as LED driver with
independent PWM source for enhanced lighting
control such as intensity and fading.
The SX 8647 i nclu des a c a pac it iv e 1 0 b it ADC an alo g
interface with automatic compensation up to 100pF.
The high resolution capacitive sensing supports a
wide variety of touch pad sizes and shapes and
allows capacitive wheels to be created using thick
overlay materials (up to 5mm) for an extremely
robust and ESD immune system design.
The SX8647 incorporates a versatile firmware that
was specially designed to simplify capacitive touch
solution design and offers reduced time-to-market.
Integrated multi-time programmable memory
provides the ultimate flexibility to modify key firmware
parameters (gain, threshold, scan period, auto offset
compensation… ) in the field without the need for
new firmware development.
The SX8647 supports the 400 kHz I²C serial bus
data protocol and includes a field programmable
slave a ddress. The ti ny 4mm x 4mm footprint m akes
it an ideal solution for portable, battery powered
applications where power and density are at a
premium.

Figure 6 Quickstart Application
The sensors on CAP0 to CAP7 are used in a wheel configuration. A finger on the wheel will enable one of the
LEDs on G PIO0 t o G PIO 7 i ndicat in g the wheel segment touched. In the quic kstart app lic at io n the whe el is d i vi ded
into 8 segments
The sensor detection and the LED fading described above are operational without any host interaction.
This is made possible using the SX8647 Autolight feature described in the following sections.
3.2 Introduction
3.2.1 General
The SX8647 is inten ded to be used in app lications which require capacitive sen sors covered by isolating overlay
material. A finger approaching the capacitive sensors will change the charge that can be loaded on the sensors.
The SX 8647 measur es the c hange of c harge and co nv erts that int o d igi tal val ues (tic ks). T he lar ger the charge on
the sensors , the larger the number of ticks will be. T he charge to tick s conversion is don e by the SX864 7 Analog
Sensor Interface (ASI).
The ticks are further processed by the SX8647 and converted in a high level, easy to use information for the
user’s host.
The information between SX8647 and the user’s host is passed through the I2C interface with an additional
interrupt signal indicating that the SX8647 has new information. This inform ation is e.g. simply wheel touched or
released.

Ultra Low Power, Capacitive Wheel
Touch Controller (8 sensors) with Enhanced LED Drivers
3.2.2 GPIOs
A second path of feedback to the user is using General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) pins. The SX8647 offers
eight individual configurable GPIO pins. The GPIO can e.g. be set as a LED driver which slowly fade-in when a
finger touches a wheel and slowly fade-out when the wheel is released. Fading intensity variations can be
logarithmic or linear. Interval speed and initial and final light intensity can be selected by the user. The fading is
done using a 256 steps PWM. The SX8647 has eight individual PWM generators, one for each GPIO pin.
The LED fading can be initiated automatically by the SX8647 by setting the SX8647 Autolight feature. A simple
touch on a sensor and the corresponding LED will fade-in without any host interaction over the I2C.
In case the A utolight f eat ure is dis abled t hen th e hos t wil l decid e to s tart a LE D fadi ng-in p eriod, s im ply b y setting
the GP0 pin to ‘high’ using one I2C command. The SX8647 will then slowly fade-in the LED using the PWM
autonomously.
In case th e host needs to have f ull contr ol of the LED intensi ty the n the hos t can set the G PIO i n GPP m ode. T he
host is then able to set the PWM pulse width freely at the expense of an increased I2C occupation.
The GPIOs can be set further in the digital standard Input mode (GPI).
3.2.3 Parameters
The SX8647 has m any low level built-in, fixed algorithms and procedures. To allow a lot of freedom for the user
and adapt the SX8647 for different applications these algorithms and procedures can be configured with a large
set of parameters which will be described in the following sections. Examples of parameters are how many
sensors used for the wheel, wh ich GPIO is us ed for outputs or LEDs a nd which GPIO is m apped to which wheel
segment.
Sensitivity and detection thresholds of the sensors are part of these parameters. Assuming that overlay material
and sensors areas are identical then the sensitivities and thresholds will be the same for each sensor. In case
sensors are not of the same size then sensitivities or thresholds might be chosen individually per sensor.
So a smaller size sensor can have a larger sensitivity while a big size sensor may have the lower sensitivity.
3.2.4 Configuration
During a development phase the parameters can be determined and fine tuned by the users and downloaded
over the I2C in a dynamic way. The parameter set can be downloaded over the I2C by the host each time the
SX8647 boots up. This allows a flexible way of setting the parameters at the expense of I2C occupation.
In case the parameters are frozen they can be programmed in Multiple Time Programmable (MTP) Non Volatile
Memory (NVM) on the SX8647. The programming needs to be done once (over the I2C). The SX8647 will then
boot up from the NVM and additional parameters from the host are not required anymore.
In case the host desires to over write the boot-up NVM param eters (partly or even complete) this can be done b y
additional I2C communications.

3.3 Scan Period
The basic operation Scan period of the SX8647 sensing interface can be split into three periods over time.
In the first period (Sensing) the SX8647 is sensing all enabled CAP inputs, from CAP0 towards CAP7.
In the sec o nd peri od ( Process ing) t he SX 86 47 pr ocesses the sensor d ata, ver ifie s and up dat es th e G PIO a n d I2 C
status registers.
In the third period (Timer) the SX8647 is set in a low power mode and waits until a new cycle starts.
Figure 7 shows the different SX8647 periods over time.
Figure 7 Scan Period
The s can peri od det erm ines the m inim um reaction tim e of th e SX 8647. T he s can per iod can be c onf igure d by t he
host from 15ms to values larger than a second.
The reaction time is defined as the interval between a touch on the sensor and the moment that the SX8647
generates the interrupt on the INTB pin. The shorter the scan period the faster the reaction time will be.
Very low po wer c ons umptio n c an be obt ai ned by sett in g very lo ng sc an p er io ds with th e expense of ha vi ng lo nger
reaction times.
Important: All external e ve nts like GPIO, I2C and INTB are upd ate d i n th e pr oce s s ing per iod , s o o nc e e very s can
period. If e.g. a GPI would change sta te direct ly after t he processin g period t hen this will be report ed with a d elay
of one scan period later in time.
3.4 Operation modes
The SX 8647 has 3 op eratio n m odes. T he main dif f erenc e is f ound in t he re action t im e (c orres ponding to t he s can
period) and power consumption.
Active mode offers fast scan periods. The typical reaction time is 30ms. All enabled sensors are scanned and
information data is processed within this interval.
Doze mode increases the scan period time which increases the reaction time to 195ms typical and at the same
time reduces the operating current.
Sleep mode turns the SX8647 OFF, except for the I2C and GPI peripheral, minimizing operating current while
maintaining the power supplies. In Sleep mode the SX8647 does not do any sensor scanning.
The user can specify other scan periods for the Active and Doze mode and decide for other compromises
between reaction time and power consumption.
In mos t applicati ons the re action t ime needs to be fas t when fing ers ar e present, but can be sl ow whe n no pers on
uses the application. In case the SX8647 is not used for a specific time it can go from Active mode into Doze
mode and p ower wi ll be sa ved. T his tim e-out is det erm ined by the Pas sive T imer which c an be c onfigur ed b y the
user or turned OFF if not required.

SX8647
Ultra Low Power, Capacitive Wheel
Touch Controller (8 sensors) with Enhanced LED Drivers
To leave Doze mode and enter Active mode this can be done by a simple touch on the wheel.
For some applications a single wheel touch might cause undesired wakening up and Active mode would be
entered too often.
The SX8647 offers therefore a smart wake-up sequence feature in which the user needs to touch and release a
correct sequence bef ore Active mode will be entered. This is explained in more detail in the W ake-Up Sequence
section.
The host can decide to force the operating mode by issuing commands over the I2C (using register
CompOpMode) and take fully control of the SX8647.
The diagram in Figure 8 shows the available operation modes and the possible transitions.

3.5 Sensors on the PCB
The capacitive sensors are relativel y sim ple copper areas on the PCB connected to the eight SX8647 capacitive
sensor input pins (CAP0…CAP7).The sensors are covered by isolating overlay material (typically 1mm...3mm).
The area of a sensor is typicall y on e square cent imeter which c orresponds about to th e area of a fin ger touc hing
the overlay material.
The capacitive sensors can be arranged in a wheel configuration (see example Figure 9) for e.g. menu scrolling or
volume control applications.

3.6 Wheel Information
3.6.1 Wheel Information
The wheel has two simple states (see Figure 10): ON (touched by finger) and OFF (released and no finger press).
A finger is detected as soon as the number of ticks from the ASI reaches a user-defined threshold plus a
hysteresis.
A release is detected if the ticks from the ASI go below the threshold minus a h ysteresis. The hysteresis around
the threshold avoids rapid touch and release signaling during transients.
Figure 10 Wheel ON, OFF
Due to the 2 dimensional character of the wheel more information can be derived by processing the ticks.
During a touch a finger will influence most of the time the charge on one or two sensors but never all of the
sensors at the same time. Some sensor ticks will be larger than others based on the finger position.
The processing algorithms can therefore determine where the finger is positioned on the wheel.
Interpolation between sensors increases the resolution beyond the number of sensors in the wheel.
The interpolation can be done already on the PCB sensor structures (analog, like the wheel in Figure 9) and as
well by SX8647 digital processing of the ticks using center of gravity calculations.
The position of the finger on the PCB structures varies between the m inimum zero and a user defin ed maximum
(Figure 11).

In addition to the wheel position, the SX8647 allows to detect finger rotation. The rotation occurs if the finger
position c hanges a certa in step size bet ween two succ eeding scan periods . A very slo w m oving finger wil l n ot be
considered as a rotation as the changing position will be minor. The SX8647 allows detecting a rotate clockwise
(direction min to max) (see Figure 12) and a rotate counter clockwise (direction max to min) (see Figure 13).

3.7 Analog Sensing Interface
The Analog Sensing Interface (ASI) converts the charge on the sensors into ticks which will be further digitally
process ed. T he basic pr inci ple of the ASI will be expla i ned in this sect ion.
The ASI c onsists of a multiplexer s electing t he sensor, analog switc hes, a ref erence volt age, an ADC sigm a delta
converter, an offset compensation DAC and an external integration capacitor (see Figure 14).

To get the ticks representing the charge on a specific sensor the ASI will execute several steps.
The c harge on a s ensor c ap (e.g. C AP0) will be acc um ulated multip le tim es on the ex terna l integratio n capac itor,
Cint.
This results in an increasing voltage on Cint proportional to the capacitance on CAP0.
At this stage the offset compensation DAC is enabled. The compensation DAC generates a voltage proportional
to an estimation of the external capacitance. The estimation is obtained by the offset compensation procedure
executed e.g. at power-u p.
The difference between the DAC output and the charge on Cint is the desired signal. In the ideal case the
diff erence of char ge will be c onverted t o zero tic k s if no finger is present and the num ber of tick s becom es high in
case a finger is present.
The difference of charge on Cint and the DAC output will be transferred to the ADC (Sigma Delta Integrator).
After the charge transfer to the ADC the steps above will be repeated.
The larger the number the cycles are repeated the larger the signal out of the ADC with improved SNR. The
sensitivity is therefore directly related to the number of cycles.
The SX8647 allows setting the sensitivity for each sensor individually in applications which have a variety of
sensors sizes or diff erent overl ays or f or f ine-tunin g perf orm ances . The optim al sensitivi ty is de pending he avil y on
the final app licat ion . If the sens itiv it y is too low the tick s will not pass the thres holds and it is not p oss ible to detect
fingers. In case the sensi tivit y is set too large a f inger hov ering abov e the sensor s will alrea dy be detected bef ore
the finger really touches the overlay resulting in false detections.
Once the ASI has finished the first sensor, the ticks are stored and the ASI will start measuring the next sensor
until all (enabled) sensors pins have been treated.
In case some sensors are disabled then these result in lower power consumption simply because the ASI is active
for a shorter period and the following processing period will be shorter.
The ticks from the ASI will then be handled by the digital processing.

3.8 Offset Compensation
The capacitance at the CAP pins is determined by an intrinsic capacitance of the integrated circuit, the PCB
traces, gr ound c ou pl ing an d the s ens or pl anes . This c apacitance is rel ati ve ly large and might become eas il y som e
tens of pF. This parasitic capacitance will vary only slowly over time due to environmental changes.
A finger touch is in the order of one pF. If the finger approaches the sensor this occurs typically fast.
The ASI has the difficult task to detect and distinguish a small, fast changing capacitance, from a large, slow
varying c apacitanc e. This woul d require a very precis e, high res olution AD C and com plicated, po wer consu ming,
digital processing.
The SX 8647 featur es a 16 bit DAC which c ompens ates f or the larg e, slow varyin g capacita nce alrea dy in f ront of
the ADC. In other words the ADC converts only the desired small signal. In the ideal world the ADC will put out
zero ticks even if the external capacitance is as high as 100pF.
At each power-up of the SX8647 the Digital Com pensation Values (DC V) are es timated by th e digital pr ocessing
algorithms. The algorithm will adjust the compensation values such that zero ticks will be generated by the ADC.
Once the correct compensation values are found these will be stored and used to compensate each CAP pin.
If the SX86 47 is s hut down the c ompens ation values will b e lost. At a n ext powe r-up the pr ocedure s tarts all o ver
again. T his assures th at the SX8647 will operate u nder an y con dition. Po weri ng up at e.g. d ifferent tem peratures
will not change the performance of the SX8647 and the host does not have to do anything special.
The DCVs do not need to be updated if the external conditions remain stable.
However if e.g. temperature changes this will influence the external capacitance. The ADC ticks will drift then
slowly around zero values basically because of the mismatch of the compensation circuitry and the external
capacitance.
In case the average value of the ticks become higher than the positive noise threshold (configurable by user) or
lower than the negative threshold (configurable by user) then the SX8647 will initiate a compensation procedure
and find a new set of DCVs.
Compensation procedures can as well be initiated by the SX8647 on periodic intervals. Even if the ticks remain
within the positive and negative noise thresholds the compensation procedure will then estimate new sets of
DCVs.
Finall y the h os t c an ini tia te a c ompensation procedure b y using the I2C int er f ac e ( in Acti ve or Do ze mode). This is
e.g. required after the host changed the sensitivity of sensors.

3.10 Configuration
Figure 16 shows the building blocks used for configuring the SX8647.
Figure 16 Configuration
The default configuration parameters of the SX8647 are stored in the Quick Start Memory (QSM). This
configur ation data is setup to a ver y comm on applicati on for the SX8647 with a wheel. W ithout any program m ing
or host interaction the SX8647 will startup in the Quick Start Application.

SX8647

Touch Controller (8 sensors) with Enhanced LED Drivers
The QSM settings are fixed and can not be changed by the user.
In case the application needs different settings than the QSM settings then the SX8647 can be setup and/or
programmed over the I2C interface.
The configuration parameters of the SX8647 can be stored in the Multiple Time Programmable (MTP) Non
Volatile Memory (NVM). The NVM contains all those parameters that are defined and stable for the application.
Examples are the number of sensors enabled, sensitivity, active and Doze scan period. The details of these
parameters are described in the next chapters.
At power up the SX8647 checks if the NVM contains valid data. In that case the configuration parameter source
becom es the NV M. If the NVM is em pt y or non- valid t h en the co nf iguration sourc e bec om es the QS M. In t he nex t
step the SX8647 copies the configur ation parameter source (QSM or N VM) into the Shadow Param eter Memory
(SPM). The SX8647 is operational and uses the configuration parameters of the SPM.
During p o wer do wn or r eset event th e SP M l oses a ll conte nt. I t will a utomatic all y be re loa ded ( f r om QSM or NVM)
following power up or at the end of the reset event.
The host will interface with the SX8647 through the I2C bus.
The I2C of the SX8647 consists of 16 registers. Some of these I2C registers are used to read the status and
information of the wheel. Other I2C registers allow the host to take control of the SX8647. The host can e.g.
decide to change the operation mode from Active mode to Doze mode or go into Sleep (according to Figure 8).
Two additional modes allow the host to have an access to the SPM or indirect access to the NVM.
These modes are required during development, can be used in real time or in-field programming.
Figure 17 shows the Host SPM mode. In this mode the host can decide to overwrite the SPM. This is useful
during the d ev elo pment phases of the applicati on wher e the conf igur at io n par ameters ar e not yet full y def ine d and
as well during the operation of the application if some parameters need to be changed dynamically.

Figure 18 Host NVM mode
The writing of the host towards the NVM is not done directly but done in 2 steps (Figure 18).
In the first step the host writes to the SPM (as in Figure 17). In the second step the host signals the SX8647 to
copy the SPM content into the NVM.
Initially the NVM memory is empty and it is required to determine a valid parameter set for the application. This
can be done during the development phase using dedicated evaluation hardware representing the final
application. This development phase uses probably initially the host SPM mode which allows faster iterations.
Once the p arameter set is determ ined this c an be writ ten to the NVM over the I2 C using the 2 steps appr oach by
the host or a dedicated programmer for large volumes production (as described in the paragraphs 6.6 and 6.7).
3.11 Power Management
The SX8647 uses on-chip voltage regulators which ar e controlled by the on-chip m icroprocessor. The regulators
need to be stabilized with an external capacitor between VANA and ground and between VDIG and ground (see
Table 5). Both regulators are designed to only drive the SX8647 internal circuitry and must not be loaded
externally.
3.12 Clock Circuitry
The SX8647 has its own internal clock generation circuitry that does not require any external components. The
clock circuitry is optimized for low power operation and is controlled by the on-chip microprocessor. The typical
operating frequency of the oscillating core is 16.7MHz from which all other lower frequencies are derived.
3.13 I2C interface
The I2C interface allows the communication between the host and the SX8647.
The I2C slave implemented on the SX8647 is compliant with the standard (100kb/s) and fast mode (400kb/s)
The default SX8647 I2C address equals 0b010 1011.
A different I2C address can be programmed by the user in the NVM.

3.14 Reset
The reset can be performed by 3 sources:
- power up,
- RESETB pin,
- software reset.
3.14.1 Power up
During power up the INTB is kept low. Once the power up sequence is terminated the INTB is released
autonomously. The SX8647 is then ready for operation.

During the power up the SX8647 is not accessible and I2C communications are forbidden.
As soon as the INTB rises the SX8647 will be ready for I2C communication.
3.14.2 RESETB
When RESETB is driven low the SX8647 will reset and start the power up sequence as soon as RESETB is
driven high or pulled high.
In case the user does not require a hardware reset control pin then the RESETB pin can be connected to VDD.

3.15.2 Assertion
INTB is updated in Active or Doze mode once every scan period.
The INTB will be asserted: at the following events:
if a W heel even t oc c urr ed ( touch, r el ease, r ot ate c lockwis e, rotat e c ount er c lockwise or positi on c han ge). I2C
registers CapStatMsb, WhlPosMsb and WhlPosLsb show the detailed status of the Wheel,
if a GPI edge occurr ed (rising or f alling if enab led). I2C regis ter GpiStat sho ws the det ailed status of the GPI
pins,
when actually entering Active or Doze mode either through automatic wakeup or via host request (may be
delayed by 1 scan period). I2C register CompOpmode shows the current operation mode,
once compensation procedure is completed either through automatic trigger or via host request (may be
delayed by 1 scan period),
once SPM write is effective (may be delayed by 1 scan period),
once NVM burn procedure is completed (may be delayed by 1 scan period),
during reset (power up, hardware RESETB, software reset).
3.15.3 Clearing
INTB is updated in Active or Doze mode once every scan period.
The clearing of the INTB is done as soon as the host performs a read to the IrqSrc I2C register or reset is
completed

3.17 Smart Wake Up
The SX8647 offers a smart wake up mechanism which allows waking-up from the Doze low power mode to the
Active mode in a secure/controlled way and not by any unintentional sensor activation.
Until the f ull correct wake-up seque nce is entere d, the SX864 7 will rem ain in Doze m ode. Any wron g key implies
the whole sequence to be entered again.
A sequence of up to 6 keys can be defined. Each key must be followed by a release to be validated.
The smart wake-up mechanism can also be disabled which implies that Doze mode can hence only be exited
from GPI or I2C command.

4 PIN DESCRIPTIONS
4.1 Introduction
This chapter describes briefly the pins of the SX8647, the way the pins are protected, if the pins are analog,
digital, require pull up or pull down resistors and show control signals if these are available.
4.2 ASI pins
CAP0, CAP1, ..., CAP7
The capacitance sensor pins (CAP0, CAP1, ..., CAP7) are connected directly to the ASI circuitry which converts
the sensed capacitance into digital values.
The capacitance sensor pins which are not used should be left open.
The enabled CAP pins need be connected directly to the sensors without significant resistance (typical below
some ohms, connection vias are allowed).
The capacitance sensor pins are protected to VANA and GROUND.
Figure 33 shows the simplified diagram of the CAP0, CAP1, ..., CAP7 pins.

5 DETAILED CONFIGURATION DESCRIPTIONS
5.1 Introduction
The SX 8647 configur ati on parameter s ar e taken from the QSM or the N VM and l oade d i nto th e SPM as ex p l ain ed
in the chapter ‘functional description’.
This chapter describes the details of the configuration parameters of the SX8647.
.
The SPM is split by functionality into several configuration sections:
General section: operating modes,
Capacitive Sensors section: related to lower level capacitive sensing,
Wheel: related to the conversion from sensor data towards wheel information,
Mapping: related to mapping of wheel information towards wake-up and GPIO pins,
GPIO: related to the setup of the GPIO pins.
The total address space of the SPM and the NVM is 128 bytes, from address 0x00 to address 0x7F.
Two types of memory addresses, data are accessible to the user.
‘application data’: Application dependent data that need to be configured by the user.
‘reserved’: Data that need to be maintained by the user to the QSM default values (i.e. when NVM is burned).
The Table 12 and Table 13 resume the complete SPM address space and show the ‘application data’ and
‘reserved’ addresses, the functional split and the default values (loaded from the QSM).

As soon as the ticks become larger than the CAP thresholds (see registers of the previous section) plus the
hysteresis (defined in register WhlHysteresis) the debounce counter starts.
In the example of Figure 46 the touch is validated after 2 samples (WhlCfg [1:0] = 01).
The release is detected immediately (WhlCfg [3:2] = 00) at the first sample with a pressure equal to zero.

Figure 47 W heel Posit ion
Figure 47 shows an example of a wheel composed of 8 sensors (CAP0, CAP1… CAP7).
The default wheel norm value 256 (WhlNormMsb = 0x01, WhlNormLsb = 0x00), is taken for the example.
A touch on CAP0 gives the wheel position: 0.
A touch on CAP1 gives the wheel position: 8.
A touch on CAP7 gives the wheel position: 56.
If a touch occurs on CAP0 and CAP1 the centre of gravity algorithm will interpolate.
Assuming the touch is identically distributed on CAP0 and CAP1 then the position will be: 4
Assuming the touch is identically distributed on CAP1 and CAP2 then the position will be: 12
Assuming the touch is identically distributed on CAP6 and CAP7 then the position will be: 52
The minimum position of a wheel equals 0.
The maximum position is obtained if the finger is very slightly on CAP7 and heavily on CAP0.

WhlOffset
The wheel offset adds an offset to the wheel position.
Therefore the wheel is divided in 256 segments. Examples are shown in Figure 48.
If the offset equals zero then the calculated position remains unchanged.
If the offset is set to 64, that means an angle offset of 64/256 * 360 degree, the position zero will be shifted
90°.
If the off set is set to 128, that means an angle of fset of 128/256 * 3 60 degree, the posit ion zero will b e shifted
180°.
If the off set is set to 192, that means an angle of fset of 192/256 * 3 60 degree, the posit ion zero will b e shifted
270°.
Figure 48 W heel Posit ion zero with different off sets
Slow varying wheel ticks can occur due to environmental changes.
If the ticks pass below the wheel negative threshold for more than the compensation negative max counter then
an offset compensation phase will be triggered.
If the ticks pass above the wheel average positive threshold then the averaging filters will be held.
A finger that moves very slowly over the wheel is not considered as a rotation. The status rotate clockwise and
rotate counter clockwise will not be set.
A finger that moves faster on the wheel will change the rotation status.
A rotation is detected if the difference of the position for two succeeding samples at the scanning rate goes
beyond the rotation threshold (WhlRotateThresh). A large rotation threshold requires very rapid finger rotations,
while a small rotation threshold detects more easily rotations but gets sensitive to noise variations as well.
WhlCfg
In noisy environments it may be required to debounce the touch and release detection decision.
In case the debounce is enabled th e SX8647 will count up to the num ber of debounce sam ples W hlCfg [1:0],
WhlCfg [3:2] before taking a touch or release decision. The sample period is identical to the scan period.
WhlAvgThresh
Small environmental and system noise cause the ticks to vary slowly around the zero idle mode value.
In case the ticks get slightly positive this is considered as normal operation. Very large positive tick values
indicate a valid touch. The averaging filter is disabled as soon as the average reaches the value defined by
WhlAvgThresh. This mechanism avoids that a valid touch will be averaged and finally the tick difference
becomes zero.
In case three or more sensors reach the WhlAvgThresh value simultaneously then the SX8647 will start an
offset compensation procedure.

Small environmental and system noise cause the ticks to vary slowly around the zero idle mode value.
In case the ticks get slightly negative this is considered as normal operation. However large negative values will
trigger an offset compensation phase and a new set of DCVs will be obtained.
The decision to trigger a compensation phase based on negative ticks is determined by the value in the register
WhlCompNegThresh and by the number of ticks below the negative thresholds defined in register
WhlCompNegCntMax. An example is shown in Figure 49.
ticks_diff
Figure 49 Negative Ticks Offset Compensation Trigger
WhlCompNegThresh
Small negative ticks are considered as normal operation and will occur very often.
Larger negative ticks however need to be avoided and a convenient method is to trigger an offset
compensation phase. The new set of DCV will assure the idle ticks will be close to zero again.
A trade-off has to be found for the value of this register. A negative threshold too close to zero will trigger a
compensation phase very often. A very negative threshold will never trigger.
WhlCompNegCntMax
As soon as the ticks get smaller than the Negative Threshold the Negative Counter starts to count.
If the counter goes beyond the Negative Counter Max then the offset compensation phase is triggered.

In case the stuckat timer is not required it can be set to zero.

Examples:
- If GPO[0] should change state accordingly to rotate clockwise then MapAutoLight3[3:0] should be set to
0x0F.
- If GPO[0] should change state accordingly to a wheel touch then Group1 can be used as following:
- MapAutoLight3[3:0] should be set to 0x0D (ie Group1).
- MapAutoLightGrp1 should be set to 0x4000 (ie segment)
When the Wheel Segment event is mapped, the number of GPOs mapped to it determines the number of
wheel segments. The GPO with the lowest pin index is mapped on the segment with the smallest positions.
E.g. if two GPOs (e.g.GPO [0] and GPO[1]) ar e m apped to the W heel S egment e vent then the whee l is spl it in
two segments. GPO[0] will turn ON for a touch on the wheel segment [0, WhlPosMax/2] and GPO[1] for a
touch on the wheel segment [WhlPosMax/2, WhlPosMax].

6 I2C INTERFACE
The I2C implemented on the SX8647 is compliant with:
- standard (100kb/s), fast mode (400kb/s)
- slave mode
- 7 bit address (default 0x2B). The default address can be changed in the NVM at address 0x04.
The host can use the I2C to read and write data at any time. The effective changes will be applied at the next
process ing phase (s ect ion 3.3).
Three types of registers are considered:
- status (read). These registers give information about the status of the wheel, GPIs, operation modes etc…
- control (read/write). These registers control the soft reset, operating modes, GPIOs and offset compensation.
- SPM gateway (read/write). These registers are used for the communication between host and the SPM. The
SPM gateway communication is done typically at power up and is not supposed to be changed when the
application is running. The SPM needs to be re-stored each time the SX8647 is powered down.
The SPM c an be stored pe rmanentl y in the NVM m emory of the SX8647. T he SPM gate way comm unication over
the I2C at power up is then not required.
The I2C will be able to rea d and write from a start address and then perform read or writes sequentiall y, and the
address increments automatically.
The supported I2C access formats are described in the next sections.
6.1 I2C Write
The format of the I2C write is given in Figure 50.
After the start condition [S], the slave address (SA) is sent, followed by an eighth bit (‘0’) indicating a Write. The
SX8647 the n Acknowled ges [A] that it is bei ng addressed, and t he Master s ends an 8 bit Data Byte cons isting of
the SX864 7 Re gis ter Ad dr e ss ( RA) . T he Sla ve Ac k nowled ges [ A] a nd the m as ter s ends th e a ppr opriat e 8 bit Data
Byte (W D0). Again the Sla ve Acknowledg es [A]. In case the m aster needs to wr ite mor e data, a succeeding 8 bit
Data Byte will follow (WD1), acknowledged by the slave [A]. This sequence will be repeated until the master
terminates the transfer with the Stop condition [P].

6.2 I2C read
The format of the I2C read is given in Figure 51.
After the start condition [S], the slave address (SA) is sent, followed by an eighth bit (‘0’) indicating a Write. The
SX8647 t hen Ack nowledge s [A] that it is being a ddress ed, and the Master responds with an 8 bit Da ta consis ting
of the Register Address (RA). The Slave Acknowledges [A] and the master sends the Repeated Start Condition
[Sr]. Once again, the slave address (SA) is sent, followed by an eighth bit (‘1’) indicating a Read.
The SX 8647 responds with an Ackno wle dge [A] and t he read Data b yte (RD 0). If the m aster needs to re ad more
data it will acknowledge [A] and the SX8647 will send the next read b yte (RD1). T his sequence can be repeated
until the master terminates with a NACK [N] followed by a stop [P].

6.6.1 SPM Write Sequence
The SPM write can be done in any mode (Active, Doze, Sleep). Writing the SPM in Sleep is useful to avoid
potential transient behaviors.
The SPM must always be written in blocks of 8 bytes. The sequence is described below:
1. Set the I2C in SPM mode by writing “01” to SpmCfg[5:4] and SPM write access by writing ‘0’ to SpmCfg[3].
2. Write the SPM base address to SpmBaseAddr (The base address needs to be a value modulo 8).
3. Write the eight consecutive bytes to I2C address 0, 1, 2, …7
4. Terminate by writing “000” to SpmCfg[5:3].
Figure 52: SP M Write Sequ enc e
The complete SPM can be written by repeating 16 times the cycles shown in Figure 52 using base addresses
0x00, 0x08, 0x10, …, 0x70, 0x78. Between each sequence the host should wait for INTB (Active/Doze) or 30ms
in Sleep.
In Active or Doze mode, once the SPM write sequence is actually applied, the INTB pin will be asserted and
IrqSrc[5] set. In Sleep mode the SPM write can be actually applied with a delay of 30ms.
The host clears the interrupt and IrqSrc[5] by reading the IrqSrc register.

6.7 NVM burn
The content of the SPM can be copied permanently (burned) into the NVM to be used as the new default
parameters. The burning of the NVM can be done up to three times and must be done only when the SPM is
completely written with the desired data. The NVM burn must be done in Active or Doze mode.
Once the NVM burn process is terminated IrqSrc[6] will be set and INTB asserted.
After a reset the burned NVM parameters will be copied into the SPM.
The number of times the NVM has been burned can be monitored by reading NvmCount from the I2C register
SpmStat[2:0].
Figure 54 Simplified Diagram NvmCount
Figure 54 shows the simplified diagram of the NVM counter. The SX8647 is delivered with empty NVM and
NvmCount set to zero. The SPM points to the QSM.
Each NVM burn will increase the NvmCount. At the fourth NVM burn the SX8647 switches definitely to the QSM.
The burning of the SPM into the NVM is done by executing a special sequence of four I2C commands.
1. Write the data 0x62 to the I2C register I2CKeyMsb. Terminate the I2C write by a STOP.
2. Write the data 0x9D to the I2C register I2CKeyLsb. Terminate the I2C write by a STOP.
3. Write the data 0xA5 to the I2C register I2CSpmBaseAddr. Terminate the I2C write by a STOP.
4. Write the data 0x5A to the I2C register I2CSpmBaseAddr. Terminate the I2C write by a STOP.
This is illustrated in Figure 55.
