The voltage into which CV is converted is converted into a digital value. Conversion is 10 bit and full scale corresponds to AVDD.
・Conversion sequence control
Performs timing generation for the analogue circuitry and a sequencer circuit for selection of the sensor channel for conversion.
・Data correction and making to format
This module provides the digital intelligence of the sensor.
The block includes, amongst other things, scaling, adding offsets and input filtering for de-bouncing.
Registers are formatted to simplify usage by the softwareapplication.

This IC has a normal mode, idle mode and a shutdown mode as states of operation.
【Normal mode】
This is the normal operation of the device. Output pin INT="L".
【Idle mode】
This is the mode when the normal mode times out due to inactivity on the keys. In this mode the control interface is still
alive.
*Usually time-out is aimed at about 200msec or less.
*Transition between normal and idle modes is automatic and without software control.
【Shutdown mode】
In this mode the device is completely stopped – and reset. This is achieved by making the terminal SDN L. All analog
circuits and the logic circuits are stopped. The return from the shutdown mode returns by making the terminal SDN H.
*After shut-down all registers have their default values.
●Initialization procedure
A normal power on sequence is:
(1) Power on
(2) Setup the registers
(3) Write ‘1’ to 0xEF (done register)
<sensing operation begins after auto-calibration occurs>
●Power supply turning on procedure
You should always power on DVDD at the same time as AVDD or before AVDD.
