ThrSettling Determines the settling time constant of the data average and thus the settling time of the adaptive thresholds.
The response of the average to an input capacitance step change (that is, response to the change in the CDC
output data) is an exponential settling curve characterized by the following equation:
)1()0()(
/ TimeConstN
eChangeAverageNAverage +=
where:
Average(N) is the value of average N complete CDC conversion cycles after a step change on the input.
Average(0) is the value before the step change.
TimeConst can be selected in the range between 2 and 65,536 conversion cycle multiples, in steps of power of
2, by programming the ThrSettling bits.

7 ThrFixed
ThrFixed = 1 sets the fixed threshold mode. The outputs reflect comparison of data and a fixed (constant) value
of the threshold registers.
ThrFixed = 0 sets the adaptive threshold mode. The outputs reflect comparison of data to the adaptive
thresholds. The adaptive threshold is set dynamically, based on the history of the previous data.
These bits set the output comparators mode.

Conversion
Part is repeatedly performing conversions on the enabled

sequentially switching between them.

Part performs a single conversion on the enabled channel. If
two channels are enabled, the part performs two
conversions, one on each channel. After finishing the
conversion(s), the part goes to the idle mode.

Power-Down
Timeout
Defines period duration of the power-down timeout.
If the output comparator outputs have not been activated during the programmed period, the part enters
power-down mode automatically. The part can be then returned to a normal operational mode either via the
serial interface or by the power supply off/on sequence.
The period is programmable in steps of four hours. For example, setting the value to 0x06 sets the duration to
24 hours. The maximum value of 0x3F corresponds to approximately 10.5 days.
The value of 0x00 disables the power-down timeout, and the part does not enter power-down mode
automatically.

Table 17. CAPDAC Registers Bit Descriptions
Bit Mnemonic Description
7 DacEn DacEn = 1 enables capacitive DAC.
6 DacAuto DacAuto = 1 enables the AutoDAC function in the adaptive threshold mode.
When the AutoDAC function is enabled, the part dynamically adjusts the CAPDAC to keep the CDC in an
optimal operating capacitive range. The CAPDAC value is automatically incremented when the data average
exceeds ¾ of the CDC full range, and the CAPDAC value is decremented when the data average goes below ¼
of the CDC full range. The AutoDAC increment or decrement step depends on the selected CDC capacitive
input range.
Bit has no effect in fixed threshold mode; the AutoDAC function is always disabled in the fixed threshold mode.
