PRODUCT FEATURES
Datasheet
General Description
The CAP1088 is a multiple channel Capacitive Touch
sensor with multiple power LED drivers. It contains eight
(8) individual Capacitive Touch sensor inputs with
programmable sensitivity for use in touch sensor
applications. Each sensor automatically recalibrates to
compensate for gradual environmental changes.
The CAP1088 also contains eight (8) LED drivers that
offer full-on / off, variable rate blinking, dimness controls,
and breathing. Each of the LED drivers may be linked to
one of the sensors to be actuated when a touch is
detected. As well, each LED driver may be individually
controlled via a host controller.
The CAP1088 offers multiple power states operating at
low quiescent currents.
During the Standby mode of operation, one or more
Capacitive Touch Sensors are active and all LEDs may
be used. If a touch is detected, then it will wake the
system using the WAKE/SPI_MOSI pin.
The Deep Sleep mode of operation is the lowest power
state available drawing 3uA of current. During this
mode, no sensors are activethough all LEDs may be
used. Driving the WAKE/SPI_MOSI pin or
communications will wake the device.
